In Love: Into Him or Into It With Him?

Are you constantly thinking about your guy?

You know that he loves you, and you love him back.

You're really into him.

Are you also into it with him all the time?

Did he yank your head back by the hair while you were making out?

Did he bite you or spank you and tell you that you "better not" try to date anyone else?

Did he snap and hurt you badly, but sincerely apologize with gifts and lots of attention later?

Did he threaten to take you by force when you refused him, so you just gave in because you were tired of all the pressure, or scared he'd really hurt you badly this time?

Did he refuse to use protection because he wants to claim you as his, even though he knows you're smart and planning to get a college degree and aren't ready to be a mom, yet?

These are just some of the things that can happen in an abusive relationship.

There is help. Ask for help. Don't try to just handle things on your own.

Don't lie for him and make excuses. Don't let him steal your dreams.

This picture below shows the best Bible study tool that I've ever used. When I was younger, and had never really studied the Bible, this was the most helpful tool for me; and it's still the most helpful tool for me now.




Make God your constant partner and friend, and you'll never have another relationship that doesn't honor your worth and value as a person and a child of God. His angels will cover and protect you. His Holy Bible will give you wisdom. His Holy Spirit will help you to pick your friends more wisely. You can't lose with Him on your side.
