Leaving as way to gain control in a abusive relationship?

Answer Leaving to gain control in an abusive relationship won't help you much. You will never gain control over a person who is mentally sick by leaving him or her. This person needs help and either you stand by them while they get professional help or you leave because you feel it's the thing to do. Don't leave for all the wrong reasons and later regret your move, if you have children and this person won't go for help, then leave as fast as you can because your children will eventually be affected by your choice to stay in an abusive relationship. Good luck

Did I pushed my husband to cheat twice because I am an abusive wife?

Probably, if he's not happy at home he'll go somewhere else and who would be happy with an abusive wife??ANSWERNo regardless of the dynamics of the relationship you have with your husband - he is responsible for his own behavior. If you are abusive and you want to stay with him, get help. If you are not abusive you need to decide if you want to be with this person who would not only cheat but blame you for his own bad behavior. It's a lot to think about.

Why do you think some people do not want to help people they know in an abusive relationship?

One reason may be is that they don't know how to help. Another reason may be they are afraid to help. The power that an abuser has over the abused is frightening, both emotionally and physically. It is not unheard of that an abusive relationship can end in murder. Often times the abused person has been brainwashed into thinking they don't deserve anything better. Or they know they need help, but are too afraid to ask for it. There are professional organizations that are trained to help people get out of abusive relationships. They will offer a safe place to stay, counseling and the tools to start their life over. The abused person is the only one who can make positive steps to leave an abusive relationship. The best that family and friends can do is support that decision.


Why would someone be nice toward some but abusive toward a good friend?

More than likely that person does not want anyone to know that they are being abusive to someone. They also like to have control and power over that person. The person who is being abused needs to get out of that relationship, also, the one doing the abuse needs to seek help to see why they are abusive. I hope that this helps. God Bless:)

Why do people keep going back to abusive relationships when they have someone that is really a good person?

In a abusive relationship the one doing the controlling does not let the other person think, act, or speak for themselves. Everything revolves around that person. When trying to get out of this type of relationship its hard to know what you are supposed to do. Its like learning to walk , eat , shop , or anything else for the first time. This is a critical time for this person and hopefully he/she will have someone to help them along this learning process. Although this person, who is usually and adult, is grown in their minds they are lost as to how to act outside of this relationship. Be gentle with this person and keep encouraging them to stay away. Did this person grow up inside another abusive relationship? Look deep into the past to see why this behavior keeps happening and don't be to quick to judge.


When will you begin to feel 'normal' after leaving an abusive relationship?

There is no one correct answer. So long as a person remembers anything of the abusive relationship, it will always have some effect on them simply by remembering it. In a similar fashion to some believing virginity can never be regained once lost, someone who is abused can never be "never abused" unless they incur a complete amnesia over their memory of the entire abusive relationship. The more serious consequences to the victim of a relationship, such as depression (suicidal thoughts or feelings of worthlessness, etc.), nightmares, "battered wife syndrome" (in which one thinks the abusive relationship is their fault and the relationship can be good again if they are a better lover) may not pass at all if the victim has chronic depression (chronic depression doesn't mean feeling depressed after an emotionally traumatic event, such as an abusive relationship, but is a neurochemical imbalance that can make it impossible for a person to stop feeling depressed even long after the event, whereas a normal person will feel depressed but the feeling of depression fades after not too long of a period). Several months to a year or more may be required for the worst symptoms to pass. Certainly, if bad symptoms persist for longer than a year, professional help may be required (but it is a good idea for the victim of an abusive relationship to get professional help early anyway, as some of the side effects of an abusive relationship can be deadly).
