God knows.

Some women just go back and back and back. Until eventually they are killed.

I don't understand it. Especially not if they've got OUT! Why go back? I suppose they fall for the "I love you, I've changed, I'll never hurt you again" shit. It's really sad.

I don't understand how you could go back to someone who beat you. How you could share their bed, remembering what they did to you. Surely you'd just be waiting for the day they'll do it again?

Were you ever in that position to be able to sit and judge????

Who's judging?

Nobody is judging.

There is only lots of feeling sad and not understanding.

Quote the judging.

ILT - No, I was never in that position, but I was in the position of the child. I never understood it then, and never will now.

The only man who ever, ever hit me got a knee in the balls and I never saw him again, this was after 7 years of seeing my mum beaten 4 nights out of 7.
