Would you rather be in pain and in love with someone or would you rather be happy and waiting for the next person? Would you stay with someone who continuously hurts you mentally and emotionally just because you love them? Or would you leave and wait until you find someone who treats you as if you are tge world to them. I've never understood why it is that women and men alike stay in unhappy and abusive relationships.

There's many reasons why people stay in such relationships. One doesn't have to tolerate it. There's ways to stand up against abuse. A lot of time the abuse steams from issues that were never dealt with. The one being abused and the one projecting abuse need help. One can never condemn another for staying in an abusive relationship because no one really knows the reasons and so many women have lost their lives after leaving such relationships, not saying that they should stay because they feel threatened, but just pointing out that threats could be a reason.

There can be many reasons :
1. They feel inferior and have self-conscious, low self-esteem.
2. They are being threatened or their loved ones are being threatened.
3. Some don't know any better. Since abuse is all they know. That is their normal.
4. There are people who wants to be needed. So, they stay with their abusers believing no one else would want them.
Those are few reasons I listed.....
Personally, I wouldn't stay with a person who is abusive. I will stay single forever but will never accept a relationship like that.
