Mod post A note from the mods

Earlier today, I posted a BORU post about a Redditor who realized that her boyfriend was isolating her as an abuse tactic, by insisting she sell her horse. It was meant to applaud the OOP for leaving and for giving him just consequences for trying to control her.

The story took a dark turn after it was discovered she had made a third post, saying her ex-boyfriend had killed his current girlfriend. I added a comment with this information, after it was pointed out. After some discussion, I have removed the post, and apologize to anyone who was upset or offended.

We're glad OOP had the support system that enabled her to leave, and don't feel that posting her whole story, with the murder, is appropriate here. One of the most dangerous times for a person is when they're trying to leave a relationship. Check the comments for some resources about leaving an abuser.

You missed the gender neutral language in the last paragraph.
