Like I said, she was lucky. Every day women are the being beaten by the men who claim to love them the most. And every day, they go back to those men. Or, they die. As morbid as it may sound, it's the truth.
Many people wonder how women can keep on going back into abusive situations.
Honestly, I never understood it myself till I saw it through my friend's eyes. People, by nature, like security. They don't like too much uncertainty. Women in abusive relationships are just like any other person. They feel stable in the relationship.
