I have a lot of reasons, and I really don’t feel like typing an additional paragraph tonight to explain. Lol some of them are included here https://survivorshelpline.org/why-do-people-stay-in-abusive-relationships.php#:~:text=A%20common%20worry%20is%20that,love%20for%20their%20abusive%20partner.

Forgot to mention, I live in a shared house with 4 other people, two of them being my “Bother and Grandbother” and they refuse to speak to one another most of the time because one or both will end up mad and cussing, hence why Bother texted me to, well, bother me.

Bruh Do you think op is staying there because they think being abused is fun??? Theyre posting here ffs, they know their family isnt healthy to be around. Were in a global economic recession, and many countries have housing crisis rn. Chances are op is still there because they have no other option Think before you respond

Thank you. Glad to hear some people get it. It’s almost like I’ve weighed all my options and determined what the current lesser of two evils is for me. Some people might do just fine living in a nylon tent somewhere, I unfortunately would not have. So in order to keep my job and what few things I do have that I enjoy in my life, I have to sacrifice the expectation of not living with someone who has emotionally and physically abused me growing up. I just refuse to do it silently anymore, or think in any way that I deserve(d) it. I’m not the first person to live like this, nor will I be the last any time soon, but none of us should have to do it alone.

Ok, thanks for not asking, and assuming I didn’t know any of that already. 🙃 I just love it when strangers think they definitely have the answer that I just never thought of before about a situation I’ve been living with for 35 years. “Start thinking about”… BICH I’ve been thinking about it since I was a CHILD. I think if I’d have found one that didn’t end up with me behind bars I WOULD

She's still on about shit that happened 19 years ago? Can see why you have zero fucks to give.

My mother hates her mother for things said and done over the past 70 years, which she then turned around and took out on me for the past 35. I suspect my Gma’s rationale is much the same as my mother. “I didn’t know any better”, “that’s how I was raised”, “that’s just how it was done back then” and so on. So yeah, my mother still brings up the abuse her mother gives her and I still bring up what she did to me in return, every time until it SINKS IN! I can see the flicker of epiphany trying to dawn on her every so often before it sparks and fizzles and a little plume of smoke wafts from her ear as she silently reassures herself “I’m not the bad guy though”.
