Is My Date Treating Me Right?

A lot of people date guys and girls who do stuff they dislike, but when things become troublesome, these people rationalize their problems as "all guys (or girls) do that." Even though the relationship seems less than ideal, simply "having a boyfriend or girlfriend" becomes more important than having a good boyfriend/girlfriend. This kind of thinking can be very harmful.

Whichever example you choose, you always have at least one person on each side of the fence-- and usually a lot more. You can find someone strong who can treat you with respect, but if you're with someone who isn't good you need to have the courage to be single first. Yes, it's difficult to have the self-confidence to see that, but hopefully this checklist can help inspire someone to leave an abusive relationship.
