Abusive men are psychologically broken; beyond repair. Controlling and abusing women is the only thing in life that makes them feel alive and empowered. You must run for your life and permanently server all ties with them.

You’re correct, that’s exactly how it happens. And most women don’t leave when it’s “just” disrespectful.

Women need to learn to leave anyone that is disrespectful to them OR others. That is NOT what love looks like and contrary to what many women want to believe, ya can’t “fix them”.

I've been pushed and held down, I've had food thrown at me, and I've even had foot spit in my face. But three days ago I simply had enough. In a drunken rage he threw a liquor bottle at the windshield and the glass richorcheted off and cut my hands, I was chocked, held at gun point and not allowed to leave the home we shared. Luckily I broke free and he chased after me attempting to break the window with the butt of the gun. I was able to get away. And once I was free I called the police . Soon he'll be in custody.

Stories like this are always complicated. 1. Where are the fathers of the girls? 2. Why do these a lot of women choose these dirty bama type dudes? When women choose these dudes they put their lives,children, and family at risk. But even all of this speaks to a deeper level of issues. Clearly this bama had his own emotional issues and this young girl had her own unresolved issues. People..You have to heal from any issues from your past or you will go through life making bad decisions. It will take God to heal the brokenness within.

You are absolutely right. She was broken and did not know her worth. So probably showed her the kind of love she only know or what she think should be love. In the beginning like with so many cases he was probably very nice, and charming then started to show his true colors. The problem is, is that women dont take it seriously when they are threatened, or some feel like they have the strength to fight them off and you dont. Once they get locked up you go seek help from a domestic violence program and they can help you move and everything, they also have counseling for women to help you see where you are going wrong. They were both so young and he felt he had the right to take their lives, which is so damn selfish and he threw his life away also.
This is so sad. My condolences go out to the poor children, the mother, grandmother, and the rest of the family.

I filed a report but that’s all I could do until he actually did something. When he found me on Facebook some years ago , I freaked completely out. No one should have to go through this.

I work emergency 911 dispatch. Ladies, you have no idea how common domestic homicide truly is. Maybe you already know it’s pretty common, but you don’t even know HOW common. Be safe, be vigilant, have a plan, you can do this! The moment you break free from his isolation and control is the moment he loses almost all control. Don’t trust a protective order. I’ve seen these documents actually escalate the danger in some cases. Don’t depend on a chance moment for you to call for help or run out the door, don’t depend on the police to get there in time, don’t depend on your neighbors to call for help when they hear you screaming, don’t believe the lie you tell yourself about not being able to dig yourself out of this hole WITHOUT him, don’t assume he wouldn’t hurt your babies, do NOT assume he won’t kill you! If he has been violent, coercive, controlling, or has access to a firearm, your risk of being a homicide victim immediately go through the roof. You are more intelligent, more capable, more beautiful, and much more worthy than he ever wants you to realize you are. Isolation makes it hard to break the spell. Just wait for an open door and TAKE IT. Take your chance no hesitation, lay low, give it time, and *don’t look back.* You can do this!

I was in a somewhat situation like this when I was younger with older children's father... For two years, he thought he was my father, yelling and pushing me at will. One day I had enough, we squared up, because one of my child was involved. That was the last day I would ever let a man even think he could cross the line. We parted ways, and he died years later. I moved on a got with my now spouse, and we've been together for nearly 29 years. I established it early: I have one father, if he didn't hit you will not either.... I don't have a problem with 3 hots and a cot, if you don't... My mom will raise my children, and your mom will be putting roses on your grave.... We had a little altercation early on in our relationship, I was pushed, and he was introduced to 'sting'. We never had a problem after that.. don't touch me if you don't want to be touch back.

Stop associating with people who will take your life. God doesn't let you walk into these situations without giving you a warning. If you walk with God and pay attention, you will know when someone has evil intentions toward you or others. It's a Spirit of Death operating through that person to bring destruction. Don't become intimate with those kinds of people. Get away from that person ASAP. Wait on God to bring you together with the right kind of person. God can take care of your bills. RIP.
