Familiarity i guess? There so used to environments like these even if they hate it cus theyre trapped ┗( T﹏T )┛
But won't you recognise the patterns early on and run away from it as far as possible according to logic?? Like since you were abused, you know the red flags better compared to others and can break off the relationship. Isn't that how it works?
Well i guess it similarly works the same in the case of people wanting to stay in toxic relationships
And in some cases, trauma bond plays apart of it?
Sometimes victims dont have the mental capacity to push thru ending it, even if its the most logical solution
Also there are still abusers out there that are good at hiding it at first, so chances are the victim just fell into the same kind of trap once again
How is it in real life, women who were abused in their childhood by their father somehow end up with a husband who beats them too??
Its too frequent at this point to be a coincidence
