  • Luckily now, we don't need their permisssion to haul his ass off, we just hook 'em and book 'em!
  • It's a very strange feeling, you think that nobody could just do this to you for no reason, somebody who is supposed to love you would not just do this to you, so you look for reasons because it makes you feel better that there is an excuse as to why they do it to you and not just because it is them as a person, but excuse after excuse, etc etc in the end you run out of excuses and realise it is just them and you are worth 10 million of them!! But trust me it takes time! Some people never run out of excuses!
  • most are afraid that they will not be able to support themselves or their children..This is partially because of the fact their self esteem has been beaten out of them..but also because controlling men, control everything..many of these woman have no education, no work experience..and many are immigrants that are not even legal...at the shelter where i work women are sometimes surprised to learn that we dont care if they are legal or not...It does present a problem when we are trying to get them services..illegals do not qualify for public assistance, food stamps or public housing..
  • File this under "Better the devil you know than the one you don't."
  • In a word fear. It also often happens with people who grew up in a dysfunctional family (alcolholics, drug abuse, mother and father beating eachother, lots of arguments whatever) they're used to chaos so it feels normal and they would do anything to stay in that 'safe and familiar' atmosphere including defending scumbags who beat ten shades of hell out of them.

  • It's not that easy.....I can't just leave.....my cd's are in his truck ! (Dane Cook). To answer honestly, I don't know. Financial reasons ? I sure wouldn't stick around for the kids sake. Imagine the damage it would do to the kids emotionally, and if he beats their mom....they are probablly next.
  • fear of being alone, or being abused more
  • You are on the outside looking in. These guys aren't like this all the time. They give their wives just enough hope to keep them hanging on. In most cases these woman have been abused all their lives it's normal for them, it's all they know. Or sometimes they have a co-dependency to save the world, they think they can change them. Sad? YES! The worst thing of all is their children!
  • I think a lot of it is the abuser convinces them that it is person being abused fault and they begin to believe it is something they are doing.
  • Perhaps because they don't see his good side and that their great love will change him--much like those who fall in love with criminals.
  • Why? because of hope... some women continue on an abusive relationship in hopes that their husbands will change and improve. Other times they're used to the abuse since child hood and they believe that this abuse is normal or they've seen their parents interact in the same way. Other times, there's more than one life at stake... the mother may be staying with the scumbag in order to give her child a better future in their education..
  • Fear, Money and their Childhood. If you add up the percentage of people who grew up in homes with drug or alchohol abuse, physical abuse and sexual abuse, you would get a fairly high percentage. I guess you would expect the opposite to occur. Meaning, if somone grew up abused, they would NOT abuse. But, that is, very sadly, not the case. Some people think it is normal to get abused.
  • because they are insecure with themselves and they more than likely love the person somewhere deep inside. They don't think they are good enough so anyone who shows affection/like towards them, they are scared they will lose them and there will be no one else.
