Do abusers sometimes use the sympathy ploy to try and win you back?

Answer 1

Yes, but don't fall for it. They will be sweet and charming until they get you back into their clutches. It is almost a game for them. Yes, often this is used truthfully against you.

Had a child with the first and was taken to court and convicted of a felony with the second. I knew all of this when I started to date him and was taght to blame his past on these women. I became trapped when he got me pregnant. I wanted a normal healthy life for my baby. That
