Dianne Queen of Shoes Registered: 05/24/04 Posts: 6123 Loc: Arizona	A story about an incidence that my daughter went through is in Our Voices. Titled: Becoming a Killer. It's about dating violence. Not a pretty story but might serve as a warning to some who allow a guy into their lives, knowing they aren't good.

I know how much it hurt when she was young and teased by other kids. Just before my daughter met her now husband, I prayed to God to bring her a godly, gentle man. And that's what she got, praise God. You have had so much to deal with, Dianne. You must have an awesome faith.

I read the story, too. I cannot imagine the feelings and emotions involved here or how you managed to control either. What a powerful story. Please tell your daughter that she is so admired from afar. I see she has her Mother's character. JJ

You'll see a sketch of 3 women's faces that say Our Voices. Click on that and look for the title Becoming a Killer by Dianne.

Anonymous Unregistered	Okay, thanks, found it! Oh my Dianne, I wonder if he has abused anyone else since? There are career fields where you find many abusers, i.e., lawyers, doctors (the God syndrome), police, etc., and they lurk elsewhere, too. Sure am glad your daughter is out of that situation.

yepthatsme2 Member Registered: 08/08/05 Posts: 816 Loc: Fredericksburg, Va.	Can certainly understand your frame of mind at the time. I'm sure I would have been searching the resources of my mind to come up with ways to inflict hurt on him also. Sounds as if, he understood what you daughter was telling him. Truly hope no one else falls victim to his abusive manner in the future. It amazing how God put all things under your feet...with the ability to move you forward strong.
