>>335576this is only applicable in situations in which person is fully aware the person they're with is an abuser and do nothing to leave while also complaining to everyone how shitty their abusive partner is.
read too many stories and even my own friend is the same way. she would complain how shitty boyfriend is, and then still let him in her house, have sex with him and hang out with him and cook for him. everyone asked her why the hell she's with him, and she'd just say "oh he's better now so it's ok", and when he was shitty to her again she'd block him for a week or so, rinse and repeat.
he was actually the one to leave her, around a month ago he ghosted her and now has a diff gf. she, of course, is depressed post-break up. and he had 0 redeeming qualities. never got her gifts, never took her to dates where he paid, even when they flew somewhere she 100% paid for herself. he was only nice to her for the first few months. how do some women get attached to these scumbags and then live in denial is beyond me, are they just that scared to be single?
