*Sigh*

I don't care about the stupid writeup. I don't care if it was created yesterday. For some reason this piece speaks history to me...

Anywho, in other things...
Read a friend of a friend's journal the other day, and it further re-enforced certian psycosises. She discussed a certain event concerning the battery between significant others.
This remains something I cannot bend my mind around, and scares me to death. How one who claims to love another can bring themself to hurt that other one terrifies me. I'll hurt other things, (*things* being key,) and will go so far as to hurt myself before the other person. How someone can step over that line confuses and scares me.
My first reaction upon hearing about something like this is to snarl, throw myself at the abuser's throat and worry them like a rat. But on the other hand, the rational, educated side of me knows that there is a very real problem.
Perhaps this falls back to being a self-control freak, and S.O. abuse epitomises looseing one's self control....

I think your key word there is "claims." The abuser says they love the abused, they may even think they love the abused. What they are actually feeling is a sense of entitlement and a sense of ownership. They believe that it is their right and privilege to do with this "person" (because I don't think abusers really think that their objects are people with real thoughts and feelings) as they see fit. That goes for psychological and emotional abuse as well as physical.

Trust me on this one. I've survived three abusive relationships -- I kept getting into them because my first real boyfriend was abusive, and I thought it was supposed to be that way. I got better. :-)

I'm glad to hear that you're not there any more. I'd be looking for heads to crack. And it would make me sad.
This is just another in a long line of instances that have my highly rational, rediculously edu-ma-cated side battling over my.. spirtual? feral? (I don't really have a word to discribe the other side.) Lately they've been warring. Alot.


(Oh, btw, this weekend in the little bro's birthday, so I'll be at the other end of the state. poo. But I'll have a chance to get some work in on our daft draft. ;) Say Hi! to people for me, and No! I haven't forgotten about them, but stupid real life, and other obligations, keep cropping up.)

Well, look on the bright side. Last time an SO tried to lay a hand on me, he shoved me. I shoved back. I was fine the next day. His sternum hurt for a week.

There are some small advantages to having a first degree brown belt in karate (next test will be for black). :-D

None of you will believe me

No, actually, I believe it was too. And I believe certian individuals have probably learned quite a bit about themselves due to it...
I wasn't trying to make a commentary on them, as there's no way I know enough about them to do so. More a general commentary on how I can't fathom the actions necessary given when it's actually intended.

And yes, I absolutely believe you've got your eye on it, and trust you'll do right by it.
