Yes there is a privilege aspect to leaving abusive situations - sometimes, it& #39;s a matter of finances keeping you from being able to leave. But abuse is much more complicated than that. Often, there& #39;s a strong emotional attachment, love for the person, even though they& #39;re abusive.
Abusers know how to belittle you, to make you feel worthless, and then to build you back in a way that you feel they& #39;re the only one who can love you.
And sometimes you love them despite their abuse.
And sometimes they also love you, while also being abusive.
