I think I am in an abusive relationship. I've been abused. Domestic violence can occur between spouses or ex-spouses, people who were once romantically involved but no longer, or people related by blood or adoption.
Domestic violence destroys the home.
No one deserves to be abused. The responsibility for the violence belongs to the abuser. No man owns his wife or his children, nor does he have the right to harm them physically. Domestic violence is a crime in every state in the country and anyone violating the law is liable to prosecution. I think I am in an abusive relationship.
