Fine line between abuse and tough-love.

I don't think there is a line.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

Then, tell me: what's the difference?

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

There is none. It's abuse, plain and simple.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

He loved me. He loves me.

He wouldn't mend the wounds of someone lesser than me.

[a-legacy.livejournal.com]

There isn't a line when it comes to that at all.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

Then what is it?

[a-legacy.livejournal.com]

If someone gets hurt by someone who says they love them, they're lyin'. Abusing someone isn't love.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

He may hit me, but he puts the ice packs on the wounds, too.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

I love you.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

Things...they don't make sense to them.

I want to save you.

[beigeknight.livejournal.com]

It is not so fine as all of that...

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

It's you.

[beigeknight.livejournal.com]

Hello, Lucy. How are you?

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

I'm...here.

And you, Doctor?

[campjesus]

Yes, okay, THANK YOU. Jeez.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

Thank you? To me?

[campjesus]

Yes! Like so many people I talk to are all "oh it's never okay to hit anyone ever" and I'm like, that's gay, sometimes you gotta. To show you love 'em.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you see the difference. I thought I was alone.

[lonely-ten.livejournal.com]

Don't let him do this to you.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

It's how our relationship works, Doctor.

[lonely-ten.livejournal.com]

It's sad.

[mrs-saxon.livejournal.com]

And your relationship with your companion is any healthier?

He...

At least he tells me he loves me.

[atwistedsavior.livejournal.com]

Oh, certainly. My wife doesn't agree.
