Get Service


I'm sharing this video because it could apply to so many things. After I kicked Coward out, people came out of the wood work to tell me how he was a: bully, liar, cheater, scum bag, perv, and all around creep. I would even have old friends of his ex's tell me how he was awful to them before me.  Obviously I wish they would have told me while I was IN the relationship, because afterwards was of no help, but it is, what it is. I so wish someone could have seen what was going on really in our house and helped me. As this video shows you can't judge a person by appearances, and you never know what is going on behind closed doors. So because no one ever stuck up for me, or came to my aide, I've become every vigilant at making sure I never let a possible abuser get away with it. I've offered my number to a women whose boyfriend slammer her against a car in a parking lot. I've threatened to beat the living shit out of man who was holding down a woman as she was screaming. I learned later that the woman was mentally ill, but at the time all I saw was a man hurting a woman--and my anger and fear kicked in.  I speak to my children about it DV, I speak others about it--I am not going to be shamed into hiding what he did to me anymore. I share the signs with them so that they can identify someone who might be in distress. Share the video with friends.
