[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 600394, member: 84"] No, Susie. It is not a normal loving relationship. In a normal loving relationship there is no desire to hurt the one you love either physically or otherwise, regardless of your personality type. It doesn't mean they may not love either other, it means they don't know how to relate to each other. Either it is learned behavior as in an abusive past or lack of communication skills or maturity ect. Sadly, we as a society are losing our relationship skills for a wide variety of reasons. With that loss, we're also seeing the breakdown of relationships. Fred would have never dreamed to lay a hand on me. He never, no matter how angry, disrespected me. 1. I would not tolerate it and he knew it beyond a doubt and 2. I would never think to treat him that way. In all our years together even so much as raised voices were an exceptionally rare event. From what I've observed over the years it seems though that the dysfunctional relationship, and often abusive relationship, is becoming terribly common. [/QUOTE]
