I asked that because I got into a very abusive relationship. I didn't know his family had a long history of mental illness, severe spousal and child abuse his father even did time in prison for murder. But by the time he told me it was too late and I thought I could save him. Of course that didn't happen and now I must work through the mental physical and sexual abuse I endured. (Still working through it 10 years after relationship ended) Plus we both have mi in our family genes. We had two boys together one who battles ADD and one who just started dealing with depression. If only I would have known. That is why I was up front and honest right away when I dated my now husband.

No matter how small, a positive change deserves to be celebrated!
