The cycle of abuse is hard to break. Some couples have children who would suffer from the split, having parents struggling to survive on one income. Add that in many of these instances ther may be mental illnesses in one or both partner PTSD, narcissism, BPD, ClusterB... it's not just that 'easy' to breakup for some.
I won't cast judgement for individuals who are trapped and unable to break a codependency and abuse cycle for finally feeling loved even though it's outside their abuse. I only hope for those people that their new partner helps be their guiding light out of the dark place.

@Starcrossed I hasten to add...A person must depend upon himself or herself to break the cycle of abuse. People who are "broken" cannot expect others to do the hard work for them. Unrealistic. These people often have poor relationships. Rarely can they find someone who can struggle along with them and love them too. Takes counseling. Group sessions. And a fierce ability to WANT to be whole again. To WANT to thrive. To WANT to live healthily. I do value your words.

@Starcrossed Feeling 'loved' usually through emotionally manipulating the sucker that falls for their lies.
Being honest with your partner is not breaking up, it is giving your partner the opportunity to do so
