A LOT of victims become isolated from both family and friends, which is deliberate on the abuser's part. So, yes, loneliness can contribute, but it's not the only reason why people keep going back to their abuser. It relates much more to the cycle of abuse and addiction, that I spoke about earlier. And I know this, because I have educated myself on the topic.
