“Am I bEiNg pArAnOiD?” Probably not, babes

I totally get fielding an uncertain situation with an anonymous crowd of unbiased internet users, but I can’t help but notice just how often women come onto Reddit and describe a situation that is clearly not okay just to end the post with “am I overreacting?” “How do I make him understand?” “Am I being paranoid?” Honey, trust your intuition, you know when you’re being treated wrong, you have control of your situation and you deserve better. Not saying women should be quiet about their mistreatment or that escaping abuse it always easy (I know it isn’t), it just feels really indicative of the way our society conditions us to tolerate the intolerable and make us question our own sanity. Remember y’all, solitude is preferable to abuse.
