Spouse Abuse Stories Reveal Details Of Living With An Abusive Partner

By Michael Obrien


There are many people that have heard individuals discussing spouse abuse stories, and have vowed that they would never let the same thing be done to them. However, despite the reactions of individuals, when they hear these stories, the truth is domestic violence is still a problem. Many people that are involved in these situations, are afraid to do anything to get themselves out of them.

There are a lot of people that question, why no one does anything to stop this from occurring. The issue is that most people that are in an abusive relationship, remain silent about it. They try to hide the fact that what they are in, is not a healthy situation.

In a lot of cases, individuals that battle with abusers, believe that it will get better. They have been brainwashed, prior to the physical attacks being forced upon them. These men, and women are forced to emotionally believe that they are nothing. They believe that they do not have a purpose in this world, unless they remain subjected to the abusers actions.

In a lot of cases, the individual who is getting abused, is manipulated to believe that they deserve what is being given to them. The abusers know how to control the individual that they are abusing, because they have attacked the person mentally, before their actions become physical. Most victims view the thought of leaving, as a terrible thing.

Most individuals that are getting abused, try to put themselves into the abusers shoes. They make excuses for the reasons why they are getting physically attacked. They try to place their abuser on a pedestal, and they believe that if they can change, and stop making them mad at them all of the time, then the abuser will cease the abuse entirely.

In fact, there are a lot of people that are subjected to this type of treatment, that will stand up for the person that is abusing them. They try to see the abuser as a good person. They believe that if the individual is hurting them that they have done something to deserve the treatment they are receiving. It is kind of sick that anyone would think this way, but it is something that happens every single day.

In the meantime, the individual that is being abused will usually cut ties with everyone that they know. They will not have anyone that they can run to, even if they were given the chance to get away. They ignore their families or completely disown them, and they do not have any friends, in fear that their abuser may lash out against them for it.

It's hard for people to put themselves into the spouse abuse stories that they read or hear. However, regardless of how much an individual insists that this could never happen to them, the truth is, it happens to people just like them, every single day. Women and men can be subjected to this type of abuse. Your next door neighbor may be going through this abuse, and you would never know it.
