What Motivates Women To Stay In Abusive Marriages? by Mutendiwashe(op): 9:37am On Aug 08, 2019
I recently read a story of a woman who wanted to divorce her husband because he was being unfaithful and abusive. To my surprise many women were calling her weak for making such a decision. The woman in question is financially stable and the husband was actually living off her. I feel she was justified because who wants to continue a life of buying her husband underwear so that he can take it off for another woman? My question is why are other women willing to tolerate an unfaithful and abusive husband rather than divorce and start over?

rove(love),family presure, sometimes financial gain, when children are involved and the I must be in my husband's house mentally. I forgot to add.. What will people say?
Many women are without source of income and do not know exactly where to go and how to start, if a woman is from a wealthy home I assure she may leave an abusive relationship, so many women remain because life outside their husband's house is another hell.

It feels good to be referred to as a married woman cheesy it doesn't matter what you're going through. Flaunt the rings during the day and cry later at night tongue

Most women who stayed back are financially handicap.
Some stay to advoid societal mockery
Others, stay for the sake of their kids.
My sister was in same boat, didn't want to leave because of all the above reason, although hers was not domestic violence, it was unfaithfulness.it was the husband himself who said if she didn't leave, she she should be ready to wake up dead one day. My sis left.
She got a job began to watch her weight , talk some senses to herself, get an apartment and now she sleeps well at night with no fear of where and when and what is the next STI to be treated ?
Women should not be scared to move out if it is not working.
Life is sweet so enjoy it and let no MFvker make you feel like a dirt.
