You'll be surprised that those single independent women can be in an abusive relationship because they are stubborn. Like one girl that I know refuse to date any other type of guys except a certain type and those are the ones often are bullies. As a guy, we usually have a pretty good d*ck meter in our heads when we see and interact with another guy.
Yea, that's the good part that finding out now rather than later. Paying her CC was a good chunk of money but atleast he doesn't owe her child support.
Really sad, but you might as well leave her to it. These women are not going to change because someone else says they should. If they change, it will be because they want to. That's just her type. As long as she is happy with it. Some people are actually happy in "abusive" relationships (it occurred to me that some of those relationships may not actually be as abusive as they seem)
Men get a bad wrap for being 'abusers'. What is generally not advertised is the amount of mental abuse projected onto men through various narcissistic, passive-aggressive, political tactics. One of these tactics is branding men as the 'abusers'.

A black eye is a black eye, dude.
You try being on the receiving end of that by someone with significantly more weight and muscle than you for a few years, holding the hand of a preschooler while carrying a living bowling ball in your innards, and no cash in hand to go anywhere, and then come back to talk to us about silly tactics.
Physical abuse is physical abuse, full stop.
Mental abuse is real as well. I don't know if it's not as "well advertised." (Advertised????) As a matter of fact, mental abuse IS the abuse du jour, if you will. No matter who it's perpetrated by. I don't think you read enough.
The OP’s premise is so odd. Men either slap women around or they are wimps who are cheated on? Which one are you, OP? Did your father hit your mother, or did your mother have sex with other men? Are your male friends wife beaters? Do all their wives cheat on them?

"1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men have been victims of [some form of] physical violence by an intimate partner within their lifetime.
1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men have been victims of severe physical violence by an intimate partner in their lifetime."
Not just mental / emotional abuse....
Unfortunately, there is are far less resources and support available for men of abusive relationships. Discussions about spousal abuse these figures are rarely discussed. Several former feminists have mentioned this as an issue within the current present day movement they used to support.... if it was about equality... then why aren't we talking about husbands in abusive relationships not just women.
So yeh.. I agree with you. Thanks for mentioning it.

Way to go marginalizing a real concern that the poster was just trying to highlight! Pointing out that men are abused as well doesn't equate to implying that a woman in a abusive relationship is any lesser of concern.
Equality isn't a zero sum game here...
