Domestic violence can be funny?

[Cyclone]

It's vastly under reported and the statistics about it are most likely on the low side because of this, but when reported I understand that the police should/do take it seriously.

There was a video from thee mankind institute post a couple of year ag0 which nicely illustrates the difference in attitudes towards domestic violence against menand women.

The range of DV is as diverse as there are colours but most people are polarised to black or white when they think of its place in a persons character and their relationships. Living with a narcissist is not easy and neither is how they come to end up that way. It's great you have help to deal with it and hope you can move on to a brighter future.

Thank you for your replies

To be honest Ive been putting off replying myself as I kind of regretted posting and was a bit worried as to the sort of replies I would get. Thankfully you good people have shown me I was wrong to worry about this and I thank you for your kind words.

To anyone, Man or Women suffering domestic violence please do not follow my example of staying silent.

Report it, talk to someone. You may get a much better response than the one I thought I would get.

Thank you
