NEVER GO BACK...NEVER . NOT EVEN TO END THINGS!!!!

So many evil guys out there. Be careful ladies

Thank goodness for his ex for giving you info. And I’m glad you’re now safe.

I was in a domestic violence relationship but the only thing is my abuser chose to break and leave me and that’s how I ended up getting out of it and the cops didn’t believe because they was his color and I’m African American but here I am many moons later I have two beautiful kids the husband of my dreams I’ve been with six years and it couldn’t get any better

I have to attest when I was being abused....I went into denial. For years! I often blamed myself but eventually God woke me up when my abuser tried to kill me. Whew chile....

You are one of the lucky ones you made it out alive.

We need more DV shelters; more education of police officers; more education of young women (thank you for doing this!). I’m so happy you are now safe!

Never meet people online! Always run new people through friends and family..they see things you can’t. Never let anyone invade your personal space, let them earn your trust. Stay safe ladies!❤

Domestic violence is occurring in elementary and middle school and Dana should perhaps make a video to be distributed within the elementary and middle schools.

This is almost my story to a T. I felt so scared to talk about what happened to me because I felt like no one would believe me. Thank you for sharing your story, it’s so important we talk about these things. I’m so glad you’re safe and out of this situation

His friend did nothing on the boat ride? He's a punk.

I’m convinced that people watch these videos just to say “Why didn’t you leave”… it’s irritating that people don’t have more compassion. I have edited this post because there are two people who are commenting, and did not read the comment correctly. But are commenting on my post like it’s negative. When what I’m truly saying the exact same things that they’re saying you cannot win with people.

Key words;Manipulative,quick commitment,warnings,red flags,self esteem issues.

Glad you got away from that monster. Hope the monster didn’t get away too. It’s not an episode it’s an evil act. Stay safe!

Thank you so much for sharing your story. So glad that you are healing. Congratulations on your engagement. Bless to you. ❤

God bless this young woman 🙏🏿

So happy for you. Have a good life.

I think Dana is doing a tremendous service by telling her story and especially talking to high school girls. It always seems like these abusive creatures are "out there" somewhere else, not "in my neighborhood". And then to come across something so destabilizing, you cant even believe someone like this actually exists! You cant believe it is actually happening, the horror. These people, men AND women are everywhere. Think "Fatal Attraction". Thank you for your story, Dana.

This is the nearest of the stories that I have heard that resonates with me. Well done you congratulations to you both 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I’m from Scotland and still stuck in this vile situation.

He definitely should have been a psych hold.

Thank you for sharing your story! Glad you were able to break free from this and is now trying to reach as many people as possible bringing awareness!

In front of everyone 😢😠😡🤬

Abusers come from every background even has high status/education/economy/power. eventually god forbid knock of woods if life throws us pls leave quitely..because keyword love must calming if not not love. Love must giving each other peace of mind and heart for lifetime. Stay safe consider all consequences on ourselves and others who are sincerely loving us.

Minute 23:11 , ”the victim feels guilty to leave….” Spot on! Of course the victim is picked because of these chatacter traits of being ”other centered ”, caring, loyal, optimistic and generous with giving new chances

Yasss speaking in highschools ! Good for her

Interesting about the confidence comment my ex used to come off to me so confident strong manly i later found out he was actually a complete liar and abusive not to me but having just come from an abusive relationship prior thinking back the signs of being controling were there mildly I'm glad i got out before it escalated

Minute 21:09 ; interesting analogy. I used to joke that ”where other people saw an iceberg, I saw paradise island with just a little bit of snow on it….”

Dana, I dated a guy when I was young. One day during an argument he told me: “Tracey, you’d make a man go to the penitentiary!” I was shocked, the argument wasn’t that serious and here he was making a veiled threat to me. I didn’t respond, I just went home, never answered his calls, never called him, I was too scared! If he said that, why would I stay with someone who gave me such a warning? He called and called, fake crying in the messages, I erased every one of them. One of the worst things young women do is allowing these men to move into your home so quickly. It’s easy to let them in but hard to get them out. Your home is your safe haven and you must be careful who you allow in. There’s no reason to allow a man to live with you after only knowing him a few weeks or months. When they want to rush the relationship it’s because they’re trying to get you before you find out how they really are - what’s the rush? I don’t think it was wise to tell him his ex had been emailing you. That could have turned out to be dangerous for her. You should have kept that to yourself, especially since you didn’t heed what she told you from the beginning. And please don’t involve your friends in these relationships. A real psycho would take you and her out. She shouldn’t be sacrificed because of your DV situation especially if you keep going back to him (not you, anybody). I’m glad you made it out safely.

They always cry and apologize

Remember y'all this rage & agression is a spirit. An evil spirit fron Satan.

From he broke the bathroom window u should have run that is a big red flag ,then he throw your stuff into the water wicked man

The boat incident was God's message to you. Sometimes when we're young, we don't know what real love looks like. ❤Best of luck to you.

I'd never allow anyone to touch my house...never, if so, he wouldn't get out vertically

So happy you’re safe ❤

Thank you for sharing. It helps a lot.

Facebook should be a red flag my husband passed away and that is all I attract are narcissists on there . take heed ladies and gentlemen.

So did he go to prison or not? I'm sorry, but ignoring the initial warnings of the ex, and taking him back after he knocked her out on the boat is exactly why many people don't get involved in these DV cases. A friend or a neighbour could risk their lives trying to get the victim out of the situation, only for them to go back to their abuser, and nothing happens to him. These stories really grinds my gears.

Oh my goodness 😢😮

It’s great to go to the high schools and teach them! But do NOT forget about the boys, PLEASE educate them as well because women can be just as abusive and a male may not take it as seriously because of the male role that they are suppose to play as in strength. If anything at all, it can teach the young men to be aware of the red flags and avoid being that way in a relationship as well.

The Bathroom incident would have been enough for me. I would never put up with anything like this!

That’s traumatic but at least he didn’t hide it came right out and did it past gf tho at one point they endured him for a long time

I just don’t understand why there are so many messed up men out there. Anyone got any input on this ?

The repeated music on all of these videos really sucks. It’s distracting too.

Hiw do we reach out?

Oh ya my ex husband said his baby mama used to hit him idk if it was true or not but made me feel bad for him before I ever met her he was telling me this I think now it was lies

Wow his friend did not do anything!

20:00

I’m hoping you have done a background check on your new fiancé.

If he threw your bag in the water, how did you find keys for your car?

Narcissist

First Lady … met on Facebook , ignored warning of ex and believed his love bombing when he said she was beautiful …… huh why did I click on this ridiculous video

Wow they all play from the same handbook. so unoriginal.. losers

God... ❣️ Turn to Jesus, read the Bible, use discernment when meeting and getting to know people.

I personally don't believe in it because that's a boundary that I set up as a man not to do. However, I also don't believe it's my place to tell another man how to relate to his woman. There's been times where I completely understood why a man would have to use that as a tool in his tool kit. I've met some women who are master manipulators and dare you to touch them.

I hate these stories, because stupidy will take your life! You gave him countless chances despite warnings and red flags,so deal with it!

Thank you for sharing

This is good info👍🏼
