EVER WONDERED WHY PEOPLE STAY IN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP?:
This question has been bugging me, I know it has been bugging you too! Most times the persons in these relationships are usually better off than their partners maybe in looks, financial standing etc.

You will be like, what is wrong with this lady? What is in this man that she can't just leave him? How can this Man allow this small girl to mess him up like this? If these are your questions too, follow me as I show you some of the reasons they may not tell you, Because they believe you will not understand.

They Love their partner genuinely: love is a beautiful thing but it's blind too. That's the reason someone who is financially more capable than a man will go extra miles to make him happy even when he is hopelessly irresponsible just so he will not feel intimidated or inferior. Yes. It's love.

They have invested their emotions, finance,and time: When some one has invested so much in a relationship, such tends to endure anything to ensure that her time and all is not wasted so as not to be seen as a fool.

They are mindful of what people would say: When significant others see that partner as ones who can't hurt a fly, they would not believe what the victim says.

They hope the partner would change: The victim believes that the abuser must be going through something and will change later. In some instances, after hitting their partner, they may even cry that they didn't know what came over them, the victims will believe, it will continue.

Some think it's a sign of Love: You are surprised right? Me too! A lady told me that "If a man doesn't hit you, run! He doesn't love you "😳 For such a person, no logic can change her.

Low self esteem: Some have been so brainwashed by their abusive partners that they believe something is wrong with them, especially when the abuser keeps telling them that no other person can love them.

Threat to life: There are some that will tell them "if you leave me, I will kill you and kill myself too". They go as far as inflicting physical pain on the victim, to remind that of what will befall them if they leave.


Nobody should suffer abuse or die in the name of a relationship!

Speak out!

A dead man tells no tale.
