If a man puts his hands on you, cheats on you, rapes you, abuses you in some kind of way leave him the hell alone unless you know that you're going to put up with it. Don't cry and say, "I'm thinking about the child(ren)!" No, you are not because all you are showing to your son(s) and/or daughter(s) is the wrong way a woman should be treated by a man. That may be what your daughter(s) may accept being a woman in a relationship and that's how your son(s) may treat women in relationships. Don't cry and say, "but I love him!" Because obviously he's not showing love to you or RESPECTING you. Yes there is a percentage of couples who make it in the end, but you can love from a distance. Don't depend on anyone to make you happy you should be able to live your life content with or without them. Respect yourself! Yall got me fucked up crying on here!
