Family problems all throughout today on nairaland

Is like Nigeria wan crash

Mindlog:


I have studied such women academically and worked with them severally in therapy sessions.

She condones the beatings not out of love but from the learned helplessness that she can't get anyone better than her abuser, who has conditioned her to have low sense of self.

Most times it goes on till the abuser is arrested, becomes incapacitated or someday, the victim snaps and kills the abuser....I have worked with female prisoners who killed their abusive intimate partners, the pattern is almost the same.

So you think a woman who is a victim of an abusive partner will admit that she's condoning the abuse because of love? Ofcourse not! She's a victim already and she'll want to remain that way to save face.

A woman will leave a loyal,calm and responsible boyfriend and decides to follow the one with the bad boy's vibes. Why? Because that is the one she has feelings for. And eventually he turned out to be abusive she'll still stick to him because she loves him.
