If someone is in control of their participation in a situation and chooses to accept it, they are no longer a victim. So, if noone is a victim, it just doesn't seem serious to me. Many people choose to live their lives in ways that seem odd to me and I laugh at the strangeness of it, knowing other people find my quirks to be amusing too. We are free to make our own decisions, and should not blame anyone if we eventually realize that they weren't the right ones.quote:

My ex punched, slapped, pinched and kicked me.
I didn't return the favor because I don't do such things to women. Had I reported it, assuming anyone believed me, she would have been deported. Plus, I'm not one to involve police in my life if I can avoid it. I should have left, but that's easier to say from a distance.
