Or I was just reacting to the situation in a way that any reasonable person would. I had a perfect right to do what I did, and it's unfair to blame me for it. The harm was minor, and easily repaired, and I apologized. It's time to get over it, put it behind us, let bygones be bygones. The

The Victim's Narrative: The story begins long before the harmful act, which was just the latest incident in a long history of mistreatment.

The guarantee of safety in a battering relationship can never be based upon a promise from the perpetrator, no matter how heartfelt.

when traumatic events are of human design, those who bear witness are caught in the conflict between victim and perpetrator. All the perpetrator asks is that the bystander do nothing.
