Going back to an abusive relationship hoping it would change

@DeluxedEdition Why do we do that to ourselves?

Sometimes we have to look at the bigger picture. Like climb completely outside of the box and observe it as an observer

I feel like it’s different with everyone but often times it’s a form of love we are familiar with and we attribute that form of love to normalcy. Perhaps that’s what we observed growing up or that was the form of love that we received

Often times we attribute this newfound situation to one of our past traumas. And by becoming obsessed with making your abuser love or accept you it’s a coping mechanism for closure for the past trauma

This is quite eye opening. Never would've seen it as a coping mech. Very interesting take.
