It's all making sense...
People are in relationships simply because they want to be.
Nothing else makes sense. Every other explanation has a drawback--a reason why they don't need to do/be what they're doing/being. Relationships all come down to wanting to be there, wanting to be together with someone, whoever that someone may be at the time. Choosing that someone over everyone else is what confuses me, but I'll take one epiphany at a time, thank you! (lol)
Anyone can leave when he or she wants to, and anyone can continue if he or she wants to. But, as Thomas Edison once said, "Life is one percent inspiration and 99 percent persperation." The wanting isn't enough; it's the work that makes the relationship what it is or is-not (along with the "chemistry," whick for me means a high level of tolerance for the other person). If a husband is abusive toward his wife (or husband toward husband, wife toward husband, wife towards wife scenarios) the reason the wife doesn't want to leave is because she doesn't want to. Whether it be for all the work it involves (trying to find another apartment, all those divorce papers) or for all the emotional insecurities (being alone, feeling incomplete without him), she's still giving excuses because she just, plainly and simply, she doesn't want to leave. The urge and will to flee not even such a dangerous situation is not strong enough to actually do it. Luckily for the husband, the convenience is the main reason for her continual stay.
