Building An Audience

-
Hey yall, my name is Billie Fitchett and 27 year old. This blog is not your typical happy blog. This may be my blog but its not my story. This blog is a story about my best friend who was in a relationship that turned extremely dangerous. I chose to use this as my blog subject because so many people have been in my best friends very shoes. One particular woman I worked with previously was in her exact shoes and it ended with a bullet in her head while her children were in the next bedroom. Do I think my blog will help people? I honestly don't know. However, I feel like if my best friend knew what signs to look for in the beginning or was able to reach out and talk to other people that were in abusive relationships, then maybe she could have prevented her whole ordeal. In this blog I will include pictures, and videos that will help raise awareness. With my best friends permission I will share her personal excuses why she keeps staying and details about the dangerous arguments she has faced. All she asked was her name and his name to be changed for identity reasons.

She suffered from slight Post Partum Depression from having children back to back. He had her completely isolated at this point leaving her to feel very alone. She wasn't violent or had any harmful thoughts towards her and her children. Her post partum signs were ...

          According to my best friend her boyfriend began becoming violent in different stages. First stage was showing jealousy, then she noticed he started showing controlling ways, and now she is starting to become manipulated by him. However, during the time of the manipulation she did not realize she was being manipulated. According to the website (www.thefreedictonary.com/manipulation) manipulation is "the act of being manipulated". manipulated means "to negotiate, control, or influence somebody or something cleverly, skillfully, or deviously". this can also be found on the website (www.thefreedictonary.com/manipulate). This is part of the relationship my best friend says that other people looking in can notice the negative signs but she couldn't because she was the one being manipulated to see differently.           She said manipulation followed by control because he tried to control different aspects in her life by manipula...
