Dating has become so scary these days. Women would rather, Choose the Bear!

Let's discuss

Let's talk about Financial, Emotional and Sexual violence. All of which can occur in an abusive relationship.

FYI Yes, it is still rape even if he is your husband or boyfriend.

I know that saying your man runs a strict program is supposed to be a flex, but sometimes it isn't the flex that you think it is. Pay attention to how YOU begin to change and the things you Stop doing once you're in a relationship.

Possession and Protection are two different things.

Candi Stanton wrote that hit song after her husband dangled her over a 20 story balcony in Vegas threatening to kill her. She told him the hotel was owned by the mob and they would kill him for bringing this type of press to their business. He then pulled her up and pulled a gun on her.

Thank God she survived. And thank God for this song.

The lyrics hit different now, don't they?

This question is often asked with judgement. But take the time to understand what's going on inside the mind of an abused woman and just how dangerous these men are.

We see it on the news every single day, women are being murdered for trying to leave their abuser.

So, though you don't understand and, "it could never be you" let's practice some compassion.

After the chaos, after the healing, after the silence…How do you show up for someone you care about once their rough season ends?And how do you open the door when they try to show up for you?There’s no one‑size‑fits‑all answer. It’s layered.Have a listen — let’s unpack it together.

One of the main mistakes people in abusive relationships make is trying to love their abuser into becoming a different person.They try to FIX their abuser.No matter what you do, you can't change someone that is committed to abusing you.Save your loveSave yourselfTHEY DONT LIKE YOUTHEY DONT LIKE YOUTHEY DONT LIKE YOUThe Abuse will only stop when you LEAVE. I wrote a whole book about it titled Full Circle- A Renewed History. Available on Byayanaellis.com and Amazon

Do not let it be lost on you that your friend group or friendships can be abusive too. Watch out for those mean girls that are quick to put you on blast rather than put you on. Or quick to call you out rather than call you inward.No form of abuse should be tolerated in any relationship that you have. Thats not love or respect, its humiliation. You deserve love and respect!
