Abuse in Relationships

Why is there abuse in relationships? What drives a person to hit their significant other? These are some questions i'm sure have been asked plenty of times. Abuse in relationships can be dangerous and hurtful not only to the body but to the mind as well. It effects both sides of the relationship including the children (if any). Whether one of the partners end up missing or dead while the other in jail or left to abandon the other abuse does have its effects.

I have a cousin who gets drunk and when he does he likes to act like a macho man. Well one evening we were all sitting around the living room and like always for some odd reason he always starts to pick on his wife. He'll tell her for example  "go to bed" or "sit here" or "where you going". Well that evening he told her to go to  bed because he was tired and the kids were already asleep and she was talking to us so she didnt want to go to bed. That made him mad and he started talking rto her real ugly and theres only so much a person can take so she started talking back to him. That set him off and he grabbed her arm so tight that in the morning she had bruises. Well when he grabbed her arm he started to l pick her up so that she was standing and he pushed her towards the direction of the room but she insistintlly wanted to stay in the living room. One thing led to another and by the time we knew it they were yelling at each other and he had his hands around her neck. She was literally turning red in the face. Well my older cousin got in the way and stopped the whole thing and cousin the one that was beating his wife started to resist he wanted to fight him too. Let's just say the whole night was crazy and filled with drama.  my cousins wife and the kids ended up at a shelter.
 
The next morning my cousin was all worried cause he didnt know where she was at. He was calling around frantically but no one dared to tell him. In fear he would find her and get mad at her again. After the whole day went turns out my cousins wife had gotten in touch with her mother and was on a bus back to el paso along with the kids. My cousin was honestly upset but i'm not sure i can actually  say that i  felt bad because i didnt and in fact i'm pretty glad she did leave. I mean he did bring it upon himself. Well shes been gone for about a week and i dont know how she and the kids are taking in. But my cousin mopes around the house all day. I dont think he wants to admit it but like the saying goes "you dont know what you got til its gone" and i think he knows what he did was wrong.

Abuse in your relationship is very hard to cope with. I'm serioulsy its not easy to tell someone your partner beats you. In fact if you did tell someone be expecting some kind of lecture. They would tell you stuff like "why are you still with that person" and "why'd he/she do it" and all your answer would be is "i dont know"
 
Honestly i've known someone who was in an abusive relationship. And all she would say is stuff like "its ok it wont happen again" and what happens he does it again and it doesnt make any sense. I dont know why she hangs around. I really wish she had a good enough reason besides "i dont know"
 
If abuse hurts and is emotionally painful why is it that a person whom they love just keep doing it? Does it really make him/her feel more like a person? I wonder if they as the abusers have any after thoughts. I wonder if all they feel is hate towards that person while they are doing it and after there done do they feel better relieved or do they still try to give the other person love? Its questions like these that make people wonder if those these people who are abusing others are thinking correctly.
