Why do some women keep going back/can't break up with an emotionally abusive bf?

Some of them feel dependent on them. Like they can't survive without them, in a way. Or they feel like they deserve this sort of relationship, like they can't do better. Or that it's their fault that the relationship didn't work and that they will never find anyone else who will love them.


Abusive relationships can wreak havoc on your mental health and how you see yourself/your sense of self worth.
@AmbivalentFriability:
In the end I think a better question to ask is "why is he abusive?" What the hell is wrong with him?"
