Aw 'Anonymous New', I'm sorry this is so pushed for you - I am a woman who was abused. My husband was abused in a former relationship as well. Have you ever been in an abusive relationship? I agree, we are all responsible for our own well-being but it is not as easy as 'just getting out' and that is the twist of all of this - there is a psychological component that often limits what we think we can do. It's a pretty broad sweep to categorize all women as manipulative and emotionally cruel, not sure how Mother Teresa would feel about that. Maybe the easiest way to look at it is that abuse, in any form, from anyone, in any capacity, is awful, cruel and shouldn't be tolerated. And I think all of us agree with that. Best to you.
