My wife was physically and emotionally abused by her ex. It left her with a lot or scars both ones I can see and ones I can't. She was with him for a long time and blames herself for not leaving him or stopping what was happening even though she knows that it's not always so easy to do so. She stayed with him for years until she finally got the courage to leave him. Even though she tries very hard to not let it, sometimes her past with him bleeds into our relationship. When it does I know I just need to be patient and supportive with her. She has recently started going to a therapist to deal with her abuse and it does seem to be helping her. We've been together for over a year and she's been getting progressively better and better but I know that she will never be able to be completely free of what happened to her. But she tries and I love her for it.
