Question
I've been involved with a woman, for 8 months now, that had been abused for 20 years, by her ex. I feel like that there is times she has been abusing me, emotionally and mentally. Is this possible she is doing this to me? I brought this to her attention and it angered her.

Answer
Dear John

Yes, it is entirely possible that she would abuse you. I would remember the source of your information that she was abused. It very well may be that she was the abuser, and tells you she was abused just to hook you. If you feel abused, run don't walk out of the relationship.
