Why do some people recognize physical abuse but turn a blind eye to emotional abuse?

emotional abuse isn't usually plainly visible..

@YoMomma sadly, I'm well aware. :/

sometimes one has to be responsible.. if you know something you should do something.. you can't expect others outside the situation to intervene when they are unaware

@YoMomma im not expecting anyone to intervene. I'll deal with it alone as always.

@Dewkissedrose I think you are missing the point.. you shouldn't have to deal with it nor tolerate it nor put up with it.. alone or otherwise...

sigh 😬

@YoMomma ah. Gotcha. Yeah. I realize this. I've always asked myself why women who are physically abused stay. I get it now. And it's so hard to explain. Starting over is scary as hell.

@Dewkissedrose I know.. it's complicated sometimes and usually they are dependent somehow and or in love on some lvl too.. so.. yeah

@YoMomma yes. I love him.
