Well, imo, you may want to consider focusing on changing that maybe. Being with a person and enduring abuse for the sole purpose of having no place to go must be difficult. Maybe spend some time opening up those options if you can, during the sticking it out phase. Assuming that is indeed the only reason you stay.
