Why do some people stay in an abusive relationship? Some people will stay in an abusive relationship because they feel trapped in it and do not see a way out. If a person is abusing you, they do not love or respect you. They may tell you that they love you but their actions speak much louder than the words that they are using. The relationship may start off with having sex without the commitment of being married. The act of having sex will make you think that you are in love when the only real thing that you have is the sex. Once you have had the sex, you may experience feelings of guilt because deep down, you really do know that you should not have sex without the commitment of marriage. Because of the guilt, even a person that thinks they are in control will find themselves being controlled by the abuser. Marriage should not be taken lightly. They use the abuse to make you lose your respect for yourself. This can lead to depression and other problems. You have to admit that you have made a mistake and take over the respopnibility to get yourself out of this abusive relationship.

Why do you keep telling me the same thing over and over? I will keep telling you the same thing because you have not listened to me when I have said it before. Someday, you will be ready to listen to me and will accept what I have been saying. Until then, you will continue to make the same mistakes over and over.

How has the events of September 11th affected you? It has shown to me that there has to be something better than what we have here on this earth. The terrorists that did this said that they were doing it in the name of their god. They are not the first to say that and will not be the last. I have my religion and I look to it for support in these times. Many people only turn to religion in their times of need, and that can be expected. The number of people going to church went up in the few weeks after 9/11 and sadly, attendance has gone back down.

These people attacked us because we are successful, and there is nothing wrong with being successful. They are jealous of what we have and have tried to break the spirit of the American people. Instead, the have "awakened the sleeping giant" and the people behind these attacks will eventually get their justice.
