I think we just have to stop asking that question. I know that you’re asking it, like, out of love, but like I’m just gonna make a stance and say that I’m not gonna answer that question anymore, because the question should really be to the abuser, “Why are you holding someone hostage with abuse?” People say, “Oh it can’t have been that bad because or else she would have left.” It’s like, “No, it’s because it was that bad, I couldn’t leave.”
