When teens are in a relationship, they sometimes don't know how to set boundaries, due to the simple fact that they are new to the whole dating scene. Many teenagers are indiscriminate when finding their partner, which means that they sometimes make many mistakes during the course of a relationship, which becomes a problem later in the relationship. If the person does not set boundaries from the beginning, it is quite easy to predict how it will all end. Girls should understand how to choose a boyfriend who will respect her and not end up in an abusive relationship which is unfortunately present in a hand full of these teenage relationships. Some of the signs that the girlfriend should watch out for in the beginning of the relationship are if the boyfriend continually harasses out of jealousy and always wants to know where the girlfriend is and who she is with. Another sign to watch out for is if the man quickly begins to take the relationship very seriously and also if he has an explosive character. If your boyfriend owns or uses weapons or always seems to enjoy dealing with violent issues, that's a very big indicator that you need to keep an eye out and be very careful. If he seems to get angry every time you talk to another friend, you shouldn't be with him in the first place (Jill). If, during the relationship, the boyfriend always argues with the girl and, at times, even shoves her or covers her mouth to keep her quiet. The girl must speak up for help and not remain reluctant. Research has shown that those who tend to engage in relationship violence escalate their abuse over time, instead of getting better, it just becomes more severe (Mcghee). If the girl doesn't put... middle of paper... because in reality everything that happens will only get worse. The best solution is to talk, because at the end of the day, you are not alone, there are people who could help you and who actually care about you.
