Almost immediately. Many abusers are narcissists and crave narcissistic supply.
Very quickly! Sometimes before he ends his relationship with you. This way, he can toss you aside and his new source of narcissistic supply is ready and waiting.
The "N" in my life had several relationships going at the same time, including the "special" one w/ me. This was revealed only after I finally removed myself permanently from the abusive situation. This way the "N" could ensure his constant supply, making sure he wouldn't be without at any given time should the "other players" unknowingly involved in his game choose to opt-out.
Immediately - If Not Sooner!!! I begged my abuser to find someone else - knowing that historically he never left one without having another one ready. He started looking for his next VICTIM before I broke up with him. I left him over 3 months ago and I can tell that he is floundering and desperate for supply. He is still trying to control, abuse and intimidate me from afar. He's a monster!!!
Don't be surprised when you find out he didn't 'wait' at all. My experience is that the abuser has plenty of fish on the hook.
My abusive ex was in another relationship within weeks of our formal separation and I was shocked when I found out. He made it sound like he had been with her for years and all of a sudden I didn't count for anything. He changed his phone number and put a restraint order on me filled with lies. His intentions were to discredit my reputation in his retalition from my rejection. Everything in the restraint order about me were dirty lies and in reality he was doing those things to me. I didn't follow the advice of my family and friends when they suggested that i file a stay away order on him because he might do something bad to me. Whats more he lied to the police and told them i was 100 feet away from him, and i was lucky that i was able to convince the police that i was innocent and that he was a liar. Otherwise i would have went to jail for 3 months. He had been calling my mother for months and finally after 8 months we spoke on the phone. He left me about a dozen messages, crying and pleading with I love you and want you back so bad. After all those messages he called the next day and and said he didn't love me but that he loved the other lady and did I want to hear them making love. He literally changed his mind over night about me. I could never do that to anybody the way he did me.i just couldn't believe he could be so cruel after all those years of love and loyalty i gave to him.
Some abuser take years to get over a relationship depends how the perosn values himself
Depends on the person. Some cant let go and are obcessed. Some move on quickly. If he or she see there is some potential left to control you, they will come back. Once they see that you are not going to be controlled they will move on. They love a challange, but not too much, they want a person that resists their control but in the end will eventually allow them the control. If the victim refuses all control and contact they will move on. But actually my ex husabnd will still harass me and its been two years...since i kicked his sorry..$%%$ out....he said he has a girlfriend...he may be bored with her and or he had an easier time controlling me so hes living in the past of when he had me under his thumb. Some of these types do expereince regret of losing someone but usually its related to the fact that they are having a harder time finding a more passive victim.
From my experience, very soon. In fact, he took up a relationship with a girl he had cheated on me with a few days after I left. It was mostly to try to get a rise out of me, so I ignored it. He was abusing her when she was a friend while we were dating, so it wasn't at all a surprise. He won her pity by playing the victim. Typical.
The narcissist i was with probably never ended anything. She kept it going with others in various ways and had a stash of douchebags ready to go if the need arouse. id say the moment your narcissist thought it was time to dump you or sooner.

Why would someone who has gotten out of an abusive relationship continue to see her abuser?
I would love to know the answer to that too. I think it is because they don't think they are strong enough to be without that person. That is part of the abuse the abuser uses. It takes two to tango - and an equal number to sustain a long-term abusive relationship. The abuser and the abused form a bond, a dynamic, and a dependence. Expressions such as "shared psychosis", "follies a deux" and the "Stockholm Syndrome" capture facets - two of a myriad - of this danse macabre. It often ends fatally. It is always an excruciatingly painful affair.
Can an emotionally abusive partner really be in love with you?
Abusers and their victims form dyad's of codependency. It takes two to tango and an equal number to sustain a long term abusive relationship. The abuser and the abused form a bond, a dynamic, and a dependence. Expressions such as "follies a deux", "shared psychosis", and the "Stockholm Syndrome" capture facets two of a myriad of this danse macabre. It often ends fatally. It is always an excruciatingly painful affair. Being a great believer in common sense and having been in the same situation for many years, I think the answer here is very obvious. Would you allow your self to be abused by someone who didn't matter to you? YES, THE ABUSED CAN AND OFTEN DOES LOVE THE ABUSER. THEY KNOW THAT HE CAN BE A GOOD PERSON. See "Stockholm Syndrome". It's not genuine love - it's a psychological yearning based on fear and control. There is no sound reason to really love an abuser - you can have compassion for them - but not the kind of love that motivates you to stay in a relationship with someone who treats you like crap.

What effect does substance abuse have on relationships?
Substance abuse whether it is drugs or alcohol can divide a family by making life in that family miserable for those that have to put up with the substance abuser. Drugs come first with the abuser and they will steal, cheat and lie to get any money they can from their wife, children or relatives. Individuals that are addicted to drugs or alcohol can also commit crimes in some cases to get the money for what they want (this generally happens more with drugs than alcohol.) People on drugs do have brain cell damage eventually and they have no reasoning or no recall of what they are doing to the victim or victims of abuse. Alcoholics can be easy going in their general nature or very physically and verbally abusive if their character was of a miserable nature and it's just intensified by the alcohol. The relationship often ends in a break up or, in some cases the victims of that abuse are too afraid to take action and will put up with the abuse for years. Unfortunately, for those that decide to stay with an extremely physical abuser the end result often ends up to ending the lives of the victim or whole family (victim and children of the abuse.)

How do you tell if she or he is just in it for sex?
Do you do anything other than have sex together, like: go out with friends; meet each other's families; have dinner; go to movies/sporting events/school events together. If not, it's a safe bet the relationship is purely sexual. If that's not what you want, then you need to stop cooperating in sex and express yourself. Don't be surprised if your "partner" ends the relationship. Remember, a relationship solely based on sex is an abusive relationship. Stand up for yourself. You're deserving of better than that.
