Because she/he has him/her so brainwashed that it’s all his/her fault and that he's/she’s no good to anyone and no one will want her/him or love her/him and there’s no way she/he can possibly make it on their own.

More people are concerned with why men/women stay in abusive relationships than why they are abusing men/women. Unless you’ve been in an abusive relationship people have no idea how hard it is to escape. Abusers are able to fool those outside the home because they usually only abuse those inside the home.

They need your support.

They need your love. They do not need your judgement.
