IF YOU KNEW OF A MEMBER OF YOUR RESPECTIVE FRATERNITY WHO WAS PHYSICALLY ABUSIVE OF HIS SIGNIFICANT OTHER , WOULD YOU APPROACH HIM ABOUT IT? WOULD YOU HELP A FEMALE IN ANY WAY YOU COULD IF SHE INFORMED YOU THAT ONE OF YOUR BROTHERS WAS PHYSICALLY ABUSIVE TO HER?

Once upon a time, I went to visit this girl I met at a club. Everything was good until this one night she received these three visitors. This man told me he and his two friends were the girl's cousins. They walked in, went to the kitchen where she was cooking, and snuck her. When I heard the scream, I ran into the kitchen and went to work on the first one that came into the house. One ran, the other two and I got to fightin'. I hit one in the head with an iron, and he was through. The other one and I wrestled until i got the best of him. While I sat on top of this nigga, breakin' his face, I felt something tugging on my shirt. It was this bytch-the one I came to visit; the one I called myself saving. I ended up havin' to fight BOTH OF THEM just to get out of the house. I found out later that this brutha was her man of 3 years, and he had just got out of the pen.
From that I learned that all calls for help aint innocent. I also learned to mind my own business.
If the girl you speak of asked me to talk to her abusive significant other, I would; but I would let her know that it's really up to her-to get out of it, or to deal with it.
