10 Signs to Get Out of That Relationship
1 in 3 young people (teenagers) will be in an abusive or unhealthy relationship. This means that either you or someone you know is either currently involved in an abusive relationship or has been. In dating relationships it is often thought that the behavior of the abusive partner will improve, but dating violence only increases as the relationship lengthens.
