Intimate partner violence is not about having too much to drink, or one partner making the other so angry that s/he can't control him/herself.
Abuse is about power and control; one person trying to make another do what s/he want them to do through manipulation, coercion, and even physical violence.
No one can cause another person to act. Everyone chooses how they are going to respond to a situation; either violently or non-violently.
Is your relationship based on power and control or is it based on equality? Check out the wheels below to find where you fit.
