Many women feel they can "fix" their boyfriend -they may even have a psychological need to fix them, usually coupled with codependency. They may also exhibit enabling behavior. When the abused person takes the abuse of the abuser, they may feel like they are "special" because they're "the only person in the world who could handle the abuse." They also may feel comfortable in the abuse, may feel that if they leave the person, they will be shamed by their family, friends, or community.

Is staying in abusive relationship a good idea?

You should definitely go. An abusive relationship is unhealthy for you both physically and emotionally. If you continue to stay with that abusive person, you will more than likely end up being attracted to more abusive people in the future. In fact some abusive relationships can lead to suicide and/or being murdered.

Would you tell an ex boyfriend that was emotionally abusive that you knew he cheated when you were together?

I guess the real question is why are you still talking to an ex boyfriend who was emotionally abusive? You can tell him anything you want, but it won't change him. The best thing to do is to figure out why you were attracted to someone who abused you and cheated on you. A therapist or counselor can probably help you sort it out. Do it NOW...before you marry someone like him and have his children....then you will just continue the cycle.
