[quote=Anonymous]No, because I was one. I wrote a research paper on domestic violence. It's not just physical. Emotional, psychological, and financial abuse are also major aspects of domestic violence. The no. 1 reason why victims (usually women) don't leave is because they are afraid of what will happen. All you people who say "I would leave after the first punch/black eye/police call/shouting match/mean look/etc." don't know shit. The abuse doesn't end after the victim leaves. If anything, it gets worse. This is why Michelle Castillo's ex murdered her while they were separated. This is why Yvette Cade's ex doused her with gasoline and set her on fire. This is why the local pediatrician's ex drowned her children (I'm sorry, her name escapes me at the moment but I think it happened in the 00s).

Abusers are going to continue to target their victims long after they leave. The only way they will stop is if one of them is dead or in jail.

So next time you want to blame the victim, think about her instead. Don't put yourself in her shoes because God forbid you would ever be in her shoes. Just think about her, don't judge.
