7 Social Science Insights that Will Help You Understand Why It’s Not So Easy to “Just Get the Hell Out”

October 4, 2016 //  by Lovefraud Professional Resources//  3 Comments

By Amber Ault, Ph.D. One of the many difficult questions survivors of toxic relationships ask themselves is “why is it so hard to leave someone who treats me so badly?” As rational people, we recognize that a relationship is extremely problematic and believe that the rational course of action would be just to stop the drama.

And the full blame on the annulment was directed at me instead of him. For the relationship I had immediately after my ex husband, he showed all the …
