I want to rant!!! Why does everyone advise women to stay in abusive marriages and relationships, which may be both physical and verbal, talking about “you have to bear it, that’s how relationships/marriages are”? That is total bullshit!!!!! It infuriates me. My friend’s man slapped her and sent her out of his house in the middle of the night. I told my man about it, and he said the same thing—that she should just bear it, that’s how relationships are. Omo, I am beginning to see him differently, ngl. What do you mean that it is normal?
I didn’t grow up in an abusive home. Most fights between my parents were verbal; they never got physical to the point of throwing things at each other. It just does not make sense. Physical abuse and excessive verbal abuse are just the height. Nobody deserves to be in a relationship with someone that does that. Make people wey dey do am find their match, make them turn each other to punching bag. I am so pissed and told her to leave him. If dem like, make dem use me settle, but I have said my own part as a friend. Bye-bye.
