Welcome to Book 2 of the "Wipe Your Ass With That Prenup & Get Into a Healthy Relationship" self-development book series. This book will take you, the reader, through a psychological second birth where the definition of emotional abuse is easily recognized and understood. With this rebirth comes an understanding of human emotional development and a desire to implement a zero-abuse policy in your life in all relationships.
Most people will agree that we search to find the perfect romantic partner. We look for that one idyllic match that takes us naturally from an awesome relationship into a life-long marriage. With the right partner, our commitment is steadfast but for one exception, of course and that is the occurrence of abuse. While this sounds like a no-brainer, it is not. What constitutes abuse in today's "modern" society is very complicated. This book will teach you to recognize abuse before you get married, so you can find an emotionally healthy partner who is capable of a life-long marriage. The prenuptial agreement, for instance, was intentionally created to blur the line between normalcy and abuse in a relationship. Since prenups are always presented under false pretenses, the receiving partner will typically fail to recognize that he or she is being emotionally abused. We are never taught about this type of deception.
The fact that you are reading this is proof that your intuition is screaming to be heard. Something is telling you that the prenup request that you've received is wrong. Intuitively, you know that marital equality is your birthright and this request represents the opposite. I will make this clear to you.
In Book II, I will introduce you, the reader, to the concept of true Self-Love and I will explain how this concept is essential to the process of cultivating healthy relationships. We are never taught that the only way to help an abusive person develop emotionally is to cut off all ties. Instead, there is an unspoken expectation that abusers be given the benefit of the doubt. No bigger disservice has been bestowed upon the human population. The purpose of this book is to change this fact.
I am living proof that there is a life after abuse with infinite romantic possibilities. Let me take you on a journey.
