Hard to define, but the book somehow defines the meaning of "abusive relationship"

First off, let me start by saying that I'm a guy. I had a time in my life where I became someone I didn't want to be. I somehow lost my way, and I was becoming the "verbal abuser" described in this book until I realized that I was turning into a monster and changed all of that. Knowing if you're in an abusive relationship is extremely hard, especially since there are usually no witnesses to the abusive behavior. I can tell you from experience that everything Patricia Evans says about "verbal abusers" is completely true and she does a wonderful job explaining it. I've seen reviews from guys where they say that the book is a whole bunch of dangerous lies. Just like the author says, these "abusers" try to mitigate anything that shows them as an abuser. This is why you see such reviews. Unfortunately, not everyone has seen the error of his/her ways like I have.

This book is extremely informative. It not only allows you to diagnose your partner to see if he/she is abusive, but it also explains why, how come and shows basically every scenario possible so all your questions are answered. For any of you that even THINK you may be in an abusive relationship, guy or girl, I strongly suggest this book. After all, 1 out of 3 women around the world has been beaten, coerced into sex or otherwise abused during her lifetime (source:www.ndvh.org). This book probably saved my friend's life because she was that 1 out of 3 and it just pained me to see her so helpless. I owe the author so much just for that. I now recommend this book to anyone that has problems with abuse. Thank you so much, Patricia Evans.

This book changed my life. Thank you.

I bought this book one night of being insulted and degraded by my husband. After it arrived, I didn't even want to read it at first, but once I started I couldn't put it down. The examples and antedotes resonated with me. It gave me the courage to realize that I was not alone.

I recommend this book to any person who thinks they may be in an abusive relationship. Be strong, and find a good lawyer!

the story of my marriage

This pretty much summed up my marriage. Anyone who thinks they may be in an abusive relationship or if the relationship just seems to have taken and elusive 'wrong' turn should read this book. I helped me to recognize what had and was happening and gave me the way to find the strength to deal with it.

This book changed my life

I've never written an Amazon review before, but this book changed my life and I feel the need to share.

Abuse isn't always obvious - sometimes it's very subtle and insidious. This book helps you see through the fog and gives words to what you are feeling.

If you even *think* you might be in an abusive relationship, get this book.
