Most women in abusive relationships do manage to leave them, but usually after returning to the abuser several times. It can take multiple attempts for a woman to leave an abusive relationship due to fear of further violence, financial dependence, and emotional attachment. However, it is possible for women to leave and seek safety and support. It is important to understand that leaving an abusive relationship is a process and not a one-time event.
