Do abusive men change?
So I’ve been with my bf for about 7 years.. I’ve had 4 black eyes and a LOT of violence over all mentally emotionally physically even to my pets and family last time I got hit he was arrested he punched me in the face and hit me in the head with my rear view mirror that he ripped off while I was driving 60 mph on the highway I stopped in the middle of the lane side ways and by the grace of god jumped out of the car my eye was bleeding and I was confused. The next day he got out of jail and unfortunately I took him back I started cheating on him and knock on wood he hasn’t hit me since which doesn’t make sense to me earlier in our relationship I was the perfect girlfriend now that I’m horrible to him he seems nicer and more respectful to me.. the arrest was about a year ago. Also I almost feel like I deserved the things that have happened bc now that I cheat I don’t see myself as the pure hearted person I once was.Has this happened to anyone else do they ever just stop being physically violent?
