[quote=Anonymous]It's clear to me that few people on this thread have experienced domestic violence. A lot of the responses are more like what you see on the Lifetime channel then what actually happens in the bowels of an abusive relationship. Few DV offenders fit the stalking, psychotic profile being thrown around here. Many many women are dealing with DV while holding down high pressure, high status careers. Whether they work in a board room or a lunch room, women manage DV every day without dropping the ball (unfortunately). I think your true concern is whether you want to be morally responsible for her situation. You may not be able to bear witness without doing something. I can understand. When I was in an abusive relationship I lost friends who just could not stand to know someone was hurting me and that they could not help. I still went to work on time every day. No one knew what happened to me at home. Had they run one of those free public searches on my boyfriend then they would have been appalled .[/quote]
