After a summer full of bear sightings, we were walking through my boyfriend’s rural backyard when we heard a loud crashing headed in our direction. I turned to him to see if he thought we should run. He’d already grabbed the cat, ran back the house and was looking out the patio door.

— Amarylis

Aftermath: It took me three more years to realize that I should have run…away from him.

I asked him not to call me for ONE day so I could study for a final exam. He called me eight times to make sure I wasn’t “studying” with another guy.

Aftermath: We broke up a month later and then he continued to call me for over six months.
