Unlike the old days ... when you loved a person ... this one misses the abuse. Maybe she'll write a song or sing one about - "I can't get enough of your abuse" in place of "I can't get enough of your love".
An ex co-worker of mine got beat up by her live-in boyfriend so badly (she was 9 months pregnant) he almost killed her. She was in the hospital etc. The baby is OK. He went to jail for 4 years. She waited for him and says she's "deeply" in love with him.
I told her that he will do it again.
She didn't want to hear it.
