One of the most important empowerment steps any woman can personally take is deciding to get out of a relationship, that she has determined to be abusive. Nothing is more of a rip-off of your personal power and creativity than remaining under the thumb of a derogatory, demeaning, and/or violent man. But if your particular guy happens to be sociopathic, then BEWARE. Getting out of the relationship needs to proceed with secrecy, careful planning, and lots of help.
