Yes sometimes. The victim may become so insulted and angry by all the manipulation that he/she may try to "outsmart" the narcassist. It ends up backfiring as narcassists always store information in their minds of any precieved slights and will retreat and some back full force. They do this to show you who is boss. They also may do this in a way that leaves you baffled cause you never saw it comin or thought they would never be so cruel. Its called "Psycological Warfare". The victim loses. Best thing to do is leave.

Do abusers like to see their victims cry?
While abusers may not like to see their victims cry, their abuse may escalate as the abused person becomes more and more vulnerable, demeaned, afraid, and upset. If the abuser's behavior doesn't stop or even pause when the recipient begins crying or asks for time to cool down, this is emotional abuse. If you or someone you know is being physically or emotionally abused, you can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1−800−799−7233 or TTY 1−800−787−3224.

You dont say what type of abuser, Although all abuse is wrong in the UK emotional- mental abuse is not considered a crime against an adult,even though it carries all the same risk to the victims mental health and wellbeing,In answer to your question(What happens to abusers) if they are not caught they go on to abuse others and if they are caught they get whats coming to them in terms of a prison sentence. My answer is one word, Karma.
When are the most likely times do hear about domestic abuse in a family?
I dont think there is a answer to that. Its secret, kept from family and friends. Abuse and domestic violence can happen to anyone but you can be more likely if they were were abused by someone as a child, saw abuse growing up, have low self esteem. However not always. Anyone can be in this position and anyone can be the abuser although abusers generally cant be single and are good at keeping things that are happening away from family and friends. Sometimes abusers family support the excuses of abusers they are stressed, didnt mean to, victims provoked them. Usually victims are separated from loved ones, they may push family away, protect.their partner from critism. Nobody is immune from domestic violence in their family all I would say is be there they may push you away but its the nature of the abuser keeping them dependant on them. It is not the victims fault and.they may not want help. This can be extremely hard for family members that want to take them out of the situation to protect them.
Are abusers afraid of abandonment?
Yes, many abusers may fear abandonment, which can contribute to their controlling or manipulative behavior. This fear often stems from deep-seated insecurities and a need for power over their partner to avoid feelings of rejection. Their abusive actions can be a misguided attempt to maintain control and prevent being left, highlighting the complex psychological issues at play. However, this does not excuse their behavior, as it can cause significant harm to their victims.
Was there an Italian murderer like Sweeney Todd?
Yes, there was a real murderer from Italy who was a little bit similar to Sweeney Todd.Leonarda Cianciulli was an Italian serial killer. She made teacakes out of her victims and fed them to her guests. Similarly Sweeney Todd and his accomplice, Mrs Lovett, baked his victims into pies and fed them to customers.
How would an abusive ex feel when he saw you sitting in a courtroom without emotion when he was sentenced?
Only he alone knows how he feels, but, my guess would be he'd have resentment towards you because in his abusive state towards you (the victim) he does not truly believe he has done anything wrong. Abusers take total control of their victims and they feel that the victim is their property just like their home and car. Jail or prison time does not generally help abusers nor does counseling. The stats are very low that abusers will ever change. Good for you for taking this abusive behavior to the court system and you should be proud of yourself. Marcy
