Time Reports

An article in Time reports that “women who said they were abused, 54% characterized their partners as very reliable, and 21% said that their partners had many positive characteristics.”

There is so much to learn about abusive relationships. I’m not surprised by the findings. For some reason, I want to believe Will is reliable, when all evidence points to the fact that he was reliable in only one or two areas that concerned me. Mainly one – I could count on him to bring home the bacon. And now that we’re divorcing, that does not concern me any longer.

Likewise, I believe Will has many positive characteristics. Unfortunately, I’m not the one who typically gets to see them. Unless I’m observing him interact with others. But I know they’re there.
