Today’s passionate relationship principle (PRP) is this: Love Doesn’t Hurt. In these segments we share information about passionate relationships and passionate relationship principles (PRPs) that allow loving relationships to flourish. But before there can be passion, before there can be love, before there can be trust, there must be safety in the relationship.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness month. Unfortunately, domestic violence is a horrifying reality for millions of people, primarily women, on a daily basis—not just in October. Domestic violence, also known as intimate partner violence, is more prevalent than many people realize. Thirty-three percent (1 of every 3) women and twenty-five percent (1 of every 4) men will be physically harmed by the person who claims to love them. 1 Over the course of a year, approximately 10 million people will experience physical violence from an intimate partner. 1
If you’re in a domestic violence situation and want help, here is some helpful contact information: In the Greensboro, NC area, contact the Family Victims' Unit, at 336-373-2331. If you’re in any other area of the U.S. and need help, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233).
