I just checked out a book from my library on women that keep going back to their abusers, which challenges the victim model of women that're abused, and then looks at it from the perspective that the women might have mental issues too.

it'll be an interesting read.

Your mom has issues. Most of our issues are emotional so you can't look at them rationally and explain them.

sometimes the bad love feels to be needed just as much as the good -

it doesnt make any sense becuase there is no sense to it

somtimes the comfort of knowing what is and will happen feels more certain than the fear of starting new and making changes

my sister stayed wiht her abusive husband for 26 years

she left him many times - and went back many times - it took 24 years for her to leave
and a further 2 years for her not to want to go back

it doesnt make sense.. but humans dont somtimes
