"Dating can be fun, but it can also be dangerous" Kristina reports. "I'll discuss five ways to spot someone who has controlling tendencies, a temper, and/or other negative personality traits that may lead to abuse in a relationship."
Other guests will be Candace Watson, author of "Ice", a fictionalized account of a young woman that escapes a violent, abusive relationship.
