Victims of violence may not see themselves as casualties because abuse speaks of their worth to the perpetrators. They may persevere in such a destructive relationship because they derive meaning and fulfilment through the pain inflicted upon them. The more pain, the more value they have to the abuser. They stay because they finally belong, albeit to a person who does not love and cherish them the way he ought to.
Flagons of Grapes
though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes; he hath mixed himself among the people, a cake not turned.
Is this your situation?
