Hi Marvin Found anyone yet? I'm dying to get my point of view out to the public. I had domestic violence in my marriage and my subsequent divorce made me aware of the social issues involved. I attended a class with other men designed to get men to talk about the problem of domestic violence. Oddly enough the class was facilitated by people who I believe are a contributing factor to the violence problem that not only the U.S is facing but the world has to deal with. Possibly why our children are killing each other. Who wants to grow up in a violent world?!!!

If you have any questions, please email me. Domestic violence regarding date rape is the topic I want to discuss or I would invite answers regarding male aggression.

am outraged at the amount of manipulation my ex-husband gets away with even behind restraining orders. there is no end to the manipulation. i would talk to anyone at the chance of helping others and the possibility of finding answers for myself. even after divorce the emotional and verbal abuse can be very depressing. i do have full custody of the 2 kids and have to deal with the manipulation that they experience as well.

Hi Marvin. I'd like to help. I'm a Survivor of Domestic Abuse. 1st, from my mother. 2nd, from my husband in which is now X- husband. However, I find myself at the 3rd where I've hurt somebody I love so much. We've taken a break from each other. How could I've striked out at him? Yes, he's very frustating & can be way too sarcastic verbally to the pt. of which is attacking. No, it didn't give me zn excuse to strike out in this physical way, the way I did to him. He was willing to work things out, til I unintentionally shattered his dream of us being married under God, which allowed me to happy & peaceful living w/him til we celebrate publicly w/our families of our union & shattered his belief in me that I believed the same thing he did. I didn't mean to do any such thing. When somebody confronted us at church, I didn't stand up to him for my love, but instead I stood up against my love where he felt shattered as well as attacked. Likewise, our relationship dominoed in a negative spiral downward from there, leading to a heartbreaking breakup, yet we still would like to be friends. However, it's hard. I'm learning a lot about the cause & effect of Domestic Violence & would like to come forward to speak.
