&lt;&lt;type 42ms&gt;&gt;bell hooks states that love and abuse cannot coexist. By definition the two are antithetical to nurturance and care. This was something my chosen-mother, Crystal, had instilled unto me early on in the dynamic of our relationship.&lt;&lt;/type&gt;&gt;

Within these situations we are taught to believe that emotional, verbal, and/or physical abuse/neglect are part of love and the process of being loved. Bell Hooks says (Paraphrased):&lt;&lt;/type&gt;&gt;&lt;&lt;/timed&gt;&gt;

&lt;&lt;timed 18s&gt;&gt;&lt;&lt;type 28ms&gt;&gt;For most people, it is too hurtful and too threatening to our sense of safety to embrace a definition of love that would no longer enable us to be &#39;loved&#39; within our family, friendships and relationships. We find the need to cling to a twisted-version of love that makes abuse acceptable or at least makes us downplay it [abuse] to a point where it was &#39;not that bad&#39;.&lt;&lt;/type&gt;&gt;&lt;&lt;/timed&gt;&gt;
