On a more serious note....went through the same thing with my sister-in-law. She is married to an extremely abuse asshole, mostly mental abuse but also the occasional physical tune-up. We tried to help her numerous times, and she always ran back to him. I think it becomes almost like what they say about a dog....it's about the attention, they want it even if it's bad attention, and they miss it when it's gone. The stories I can tell about shit this guy did would blow your mind. He was a real piece of work....he bullied everyone in her family including their Dad and Brother. Broke into our house when we had her come stay one night after a fight with him. He found out real quick that shit wasn't going to fly with me....the only person I've ever pulled a gun on and came very close to executing.

In the end, though, her situation worked itself out....he had a debilitating stroke some years back, now lives in a nursing home and has the mental capacity of a 5-year old. She's still married to him and visits regularly.

See... There are happy endings!

I'm glad I'm not the only one.

I misread the thread title....I thought it said "Anyone help batter a woman before?" Sorry, I don't have anything to add to THIS discussion.

When my wife and I drove a friend to a shelter, the facility told us on the phone that I must remain in the car and cannot come inside.
