Best Answer

Most women who become involved with abusers were raised in abusive households -- as were practically all abusers -- and thus find the non-abusive aspects of an abuser's personality familiar and attractive. That is often because they unconsciously seek a person similar to one in their past in order to complete a "good" relationship. Then, as the relationship develops, both fall back into their old patterns. That is also why children of alcoholics often marry future alcoholics. Therapists call it "speaking the same language."

Answer2: Unfortunately and not surprisingly, some grow up in hostile surroundings where emotional and physical violence were a normal part of everyday life.
