JLo reveals past abusive relationships: 'You feel like your soul is being diminished'

Songstress Jennifer Lopez has written a tell-all memoir, called 'True Love', that is due for release in November and an excerpt has been released in which the beauty opens up about a previous abusive relationship.

In the excerpt, which was shared by People magazine, Lopez explains that she has found herself in more than one romantic situation that took a bad turn and became emotionally abusive:

"I've never gotten a black eye or busted lip, but I have been in relationships where I felt abused one way or another: mentally, emotionally, verbally. I know what it feels like for your soul to be diminished by the way your loved one is treating you."

"Every day that you don't walk out that door, every day you accept things in your partner and in yourself, is a day that you're saying, 'It's OK'."

Lopez's revealing book is due to be officially released on November 4 and retails for around $20 if you purchase the hardcover copy from Amazon.
