Yes, I'll go with what Dom said. I think the CDC reported something like 2% of them do change? But even then abusers will say/do anything to make it look like they are going to change and even show changes for a few weeks and revert, but it's just to get you to stay put or under their control. So deciphering real honest to goodness change (and if it's lasting) and his promises to change can be difficult. Good periods rarely last.

Not everyone is equal but anyone can change if they first recognize they want to change and then do what it takes to make it happen.


Ping, I've read your stitch. Maybe you're looking to see what someone in my shoes thinks (we may have similar situations) and if there's a chance for you. I don't want to take up too much of Ms. Ladybug's post, but I dont know how else to answer you since PM doesn't seem to work.

Should I post it in your sitch?
