I was fortunate enough to witness a domestic violence act tonight. My gorgeous friend and I were departing a particularly ordinary public event when we saw a man put his hands around a women's throat, push her backwards into a van and then punch her so hard in the face she fell to the floor. I say fortunate because, having both been exposed to domestic violence, we were in a position to assist this women in her battle against assault. No one deserves to be treated like that. Not by a stranger and definitely not by someone that is meant to love you.
If you are exposed to domestic violence, seek help and get out. He's not going to change. Hitting, punching, pushing, throttling or grabbing are not okay acts for one person to do to another. Please respect yourself enough to walk away from that. There is help available to identify domestic violence or get assistance.
