a branch of the organisation i work for runs couples therapy for couple's who have dv relationships and...idk. i mean, it's not my area, they're the specialists etc, and i recognise it's important to at least improve the safety of people who aren't going to leave the relationship, but i have no idea how our therapists sit down with assholes like that and try to help them work on their relationship.
yeah i mean i do think abusers can change which may b an unpopular opinion here idk
but at the same time, even though my abuser got his life together, got sober and recognizes that he was abusive, i could never ever be with him without feeling fear and resentment
