I was taking a class for women when they passed these forms out on signs for teens that  are, or can end up in a violent relationship. Now, I know this would bring ideas about my personal life, which is not why I post this. This is posted for a few girls/women I know that are or could be in a violent relationship. 

Mind you, I did not tweak this at all, I am copying it just as I see on the list, k. 

I hope this helps anyone as much as it will help me.


P.S I also have a list of warning signs for parents, which I'll post later. 


=^.^=

 

WARNING SIGNS FOR TEENS: YOU MAY BE IN A VIOLENT RELATIONSHIP

  • He tells you he can't live without you. 
  • He breaks or hits things to intimidate you.
  • Your weight, appearance, or grades have changed dramatically since you started seeing this person.
  • He threatens to hurt himself or others if you break up with him.
  • The person you are dating acts jealously, says jealous things, or exhibits aggressive behaviors towards you.
  • He pressures you into having sex, or forces you to do sexual things you don’t want to do by saying, "If you really loved me you would..."
  • The person you are dating slaps or shoves you in a seemingly playful way, but it happens often and doesn’t seem right. 
  • He is jealous and possessive about time you spend with your friends.
  • The person you date has severe mood swings or constant bad moods.
  • You're frightened of him and worry about how he'll react to things you say or do.
  • He wants your relationship to get serious too quickly, and he refuses to take "no" for an answer.
  • They blame past bad relationships on everything or everyone else instead of accepting any of the responsibility. 
  • His statements or actions indicate that he thinks men should be in control and women should do what they're told.
  • The person you're with treats you like property rather than a person they value.
  • The person you are dating forces you to choose being with them over your family and friends.
  • He makes you feel afraid to express your own thoughts or feelings, makes decisions about how you spend your money, what to wear, where to go, or who to hand out with.
  • Your family and friends have warned you about this person or have told you they're worried about your safety.
  • He may use or own weapons, and has a history of violence and fighting. 
  • The person you are with tells you they dislike your parents and friends.
  • He has hit, pushes, choked, restrained, kicked, or physically hurt you.
  • The person you're with often loses their temper with you, verbally assaults you, sometimes threatens you, or brags about mistreating others.
  • His threats and anger are followed by vows of love and plead for forgiveness.

 "You have the right to a safe and healthy relationship...free from violence and free from fear. "
