BDSM vs Abuse

BDSM vs abuse, there is no comparison. These are two completely different interactions that should not be compared to each other. One is forced, and the other is mutually agreed upon beforehand.

Abusive partner

He was your typical abusive partner; he would shower me with gifts and apologies, telling me that it hurt him more than it hurt me. He would say to me I need to behave and listen to him so that he could stop doing this, as he just wanted to love me and take care of me.
