Hi,
I am here as a concerned friend and someone that would love to be in a relationship with this survivor. I have previously helped my little sister leave an abusive relationship. So I have done quite a bit of reading on this subject. Now I find myself trying to help a female friend that was in a similar situation. Although her relationship was longer. So more trauma over a longer period of time than my sister experienced. I’ve once again been reading up on this subject and can’t help but notice the person who I am trying to help shows some signs of psychopaths/sociopaths at times. So my question is in the title. Is it common for people who have been traumatized for a decade to pick up some of the traits of their abusers?

Let me know if you need more details.
