Pretty sure it has been pointed out to him many times. But he's not willing to let it go, so what are you going to do? They literally made a internet show about it. I would say he's pretty fucking aware of what his situation is. And he has the means to leave it if he wants to.
I mean…that’s what it means to be in an abusive relationship. You even may know that it’s fucked, but you’re stuck or you feel stuck.
Again, if this were a woman going back to a man that she knows is bad for her and is abusive to her, we wouldn’t victim blame and tell her she’s weak and she deserves it. It’s not like it’s an uncommon scenario. Quite usually it’s just sad and you hope the person makes the right choice but they usually don’t, so I think the reaction to clowning on him, ain’t the greatest.
Pretty sure the first thing I said was that it was sad. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't point out his own shitty behavior. You don't get a free pass just because your life is hard.
I think I’m just shocked by the general reaction in this thread, outside of your post. Like damn, I just can’t imagine the viciousness of what people are saying in this thread for a woman in the same scenario . I imagine they wouldn’t have these knives out if it were a woman that felt perpetually stuck and co-dependent to an abuser.
