Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

About 1 out of 3 teenagers has experienced violence in a dating relationship and this was shown in statistics. In most cases, one partner trying to maintain power and control over the other through some kind of abuse is involved.

Most victims of Dating violence are young women who are also at higher risk for serious injury. The highest per capita rates of intimate violence is experienced by women ages 16 to 24 and that’s nearly 1 out of 50 women.

Teen dating violence often is hidden because teenagers are inexperienced, want independence from their parents, and they are pressured by peers to begin dating at an early age.

Some young men think that they will lose “respect” if they are attentive and supportive toward their girlfriends and they may also believe that they have the right to control you.

Are you at fault?

Are you starting to think that maybe you are the one who is causing the problem? It is likely that you may think that his jealousy and abusiveness means he really loves you so much he can’t control himself. Because you have friends that are also being abused, you might believe that this is also normal or you may think that you can change him.

It’s possible for you to be wrong on any of those counts and statistics prove that beyond a shadow of a doubt. If your boyfriend is abusive now, he will not get better, he will get worse until one day he hurts you really bad or even kills you. It is actually that serious.

Ask yourself these questions; If you answer yes to one or more of the following questions about the boy you are dating then you are in danger of having a serious problem. In case several of these are yes, then get a new boyfriend.

Do you know if he is using alcohol or drugs?

Does he have extreme mood swings? Is he happy one minute and angry the next?

Were there times when he is extremely jealous? Does he get into fights with other boys who pay you attention?

Does he use force during an argument or during intimacy?

Is he blaming others or make excuses about his problems?

Do you think that he is verbally abusive to you and is yelling all the time, putting you down, calling you stupid, and threatening you?

Does he treat his mother with disrespect or is he mean to her? What about former girlfriends, did they say that he abused them?

DO you notice that he also tries to control you or tell you what to do, who you can see, where you can go all the time?

Do you find him trying to keep you away from your family or try to make you dependent on him, telling you that he knows what is best for you and your family is always wrong?

Even two of those things is true, you need to break it off and get as far away from him as possible, because these are all signs of someone who abuses or will abuse women.
