That completely depends on the person, and partially on the level of abuse. Some people never get over it fully... but that is okay in some ways too. Being a little bit more sensitive to the signs of abuse can help you in the future. The main thing is to get over it *mostly* ... by starting fresh, or moving on, or whatever you can do. Reading some good inspirational books, or self-help books... or actually anything you are really interested in can help. Finding new friends, or talking things out with old friends or a counselor can help. Watching some tear-jerker movies can help... just because it is kind of cathartic... gets you to cry and let out some of the emotion that we all bottle up sometimes. Give yourself time, and remember... even when there are bad patches, it doesn't mean that you aren't making progress. It only means that you are dealing with it on another level. Sometimes there are a lot of levels... but it does get better, even so, day by day.
the typically part depends on the frequency of the abuse.
your entire life!
It all depends on how deap the relationship was and how old the girl is. If she is in her teens it could take a very long time unless she has her girl friends take her out and she meets someone new. Then she will be over it in a heart beat.
If there is an average, I don't know of one. I really think it is up to the individual when to they are ready to get over the relationship. Some people never get over a relationship. Others are over it very quickly. Give your self plenty and time and patience. You will know deep down when you are done with the relationship
For a man, he would not have the mother to be a good role model on how he should treat women. For the woman, she would not be able to have a mother to guide her in becoming a confident female. The effect of having an abusive maternal relationship could take years to sort through.
no because it can be harmful to them and it is very dangerous to get out of a abusive relationship and yes get out of it now right now before he kills you ok
AnswerSome women can, others can not. This is dependent on your situation, and the relationship that you have with your children. Often, if they are close to your abusive partner; taking them will not be an option. That would only become an option after a court case. Taking your children with you is often a favorable decision, especially if they are young. However, if taking them increases your chances of being hurt - do not do it. The most dangerous time in an abusive relationship is when the victim leaves, so do not place yourself in additional danger. You must assess the situation.
Go to a Domestic Violence Crisis Center Ask to see an Advocate ASAP (don't take no for an answer) See them and develop an exit plan
First off 'ex' means the relationship is over! You should not even be near this person who is abusive and it's time you moved on in your life. In relationships where one is abusive it is human instinct to protect oneself and some abused victims will either stay and take that abuse silently; fight along with the abuser or leave. If you decide to stay in the relationship and have the strength to stand up to the abuser then you sink to the bottom of the barrel because you are fighting with survival instincts. Get out of this relationship!
Some one who does not understand BDSM posted "being into bdsm is an unhealthy sign" this is a lie. All studies of people into BDSM have shown that most people into BDSM are happy normal people who just have kinks to there life. Most people who are into abusive relationships never get into BDSM relationships. If someone is into BDSM and there is also a abusive relationship going on all you need to do is look for the normal signs of a abusive relationship. Most BDSM couples for the most part have happy and healthy relationships but have a relationship that looks more like the idealized ones from the 1950's and may add play that would look abusive from the outside but is truly not. What I would tell people is take time to talk to both parties and look for the signs of an abusive relationship.
Talk to them about going to the police. When they have been beaten and come to you, take pictures of the damage so that they have evidential proof in court. Try to explain to them that the longer they stay in the relationship, the higher the chance they will die in it.
