Preventing an Abusive Relationship

Video Transcript

"Stop signs are located on street corners for a reason. They want to call your attention to the fact that there may be danger ahead. How do you avoid an abusive relationship? This is Dr. Paul, author of "Boomer Girls, A Boomer Woman's Guide to Men and Dating". You've got to recognize it first. As a relationship consultant, I've had this happen over and over, by question, saying, do you think this person's abusive, both for men and women? Well, yeah! Well, where's it written, if you have to ask me, obviously it is. Don't delude yourself. It's either abusive or it isn't. And, when you see the signs, you, like the stop sign, you have to stop. Wait. Where am I going with this? Do I want to go where this looks like it's going? Chances are you don't. The problem is, the more you get into that, the deeper it becomes. If you run that stop sign, you may loose the hard way. Don't go there, it doesn't work. So recognize it, and when you do, when you see that stop sign, obey it, that's why it's there. That's why the signals are there, that's why you have a gut feeling and a sixth sense, that I tell everyone to listen to. Pay attention to what your inner self is saying. This is Dr. Paul. May your fantasies of today, be your realities of tomorrow."
