yes abusers are evil but there’s a part of me that can’t help but feel sorry for them if they were abused and never got help. i will never excuse their abuse, but to think maybe they wouldn’t be this way if they got help makes me sad.

it’s what helped me get over what my ex did to me. ik she had no control over her life growing up, she always felt like the help. i don’t excuse her using me as a way to feel control/in charge, it hurt me so much, but i do understand it. i hope the cycle won’t continue w her child but im not in her life anymore so there’s nothing i can do.
