I know the heart want what the heart wants but...
She chose poorly. Don't tolerate abusive behavior. It's a sign of something.
This guy's obviously the problem, and not her, but get away from crazy people for ducks sake. The crazy is not all there is. It's just the label.
She did NOT deserve to die, not saying that. But she might have lived if she had had hard boundaries of tolerable behavior. If this was the first time he acted out, then I'm sorry for judging, it couldn't be helped. But I don't think so.
Shit, I know I'm going to regret hitting "Post".
75% of women killed by intimate partners are killed when they attempt to leave or after they have left. Getting away is in no way, shape, or form a path to safety.

Wow didn't know about this metric :(
Gonna disagree with that. Just because the path to safety is also dangerous doesn’t mean it’s not the path to safety.
People are sometimes forced to choose between two dangerous options.
And yet you disagree with the fact that the chance of being murdered increases when they make the choice to leave? Even when provided evidence?
I disagree with the suggestion that “getting away is in no way a path to safety”.
Statistically it's true so have fun with that ig
It’s like escaping a war-torn country as a refugee. Is that trip dangerous? Yes. Does that mean they should stay in an unsafe situation? No.
It's not the same. Not every abusive relationship is a threat to your life but 75% of the time escaping an abusive relationship adds a new threat to life. Maybe a better way of putting it would have been "a guaranteed path to safety" but at that point you're just arguing semantics. I would be extremely surprised if escaping a war-torn country adds another 75% chance you'll be murdered. And it's not an argument to not leave the relationship if that's what you're taking from all this.
You may want to reconsider your math. There’s a big difference between “75% of women who are killed by a partner are killed when they leave” and “75% of women who leave an abusive partner are killed”.
Gotta love 14 year olds who have complex issues All Figured Out.
My Sims don't kill each other. How hard could it be in real life?
Then you're playing it wrong. :3
Nice victim blaming you fucking psycho
There's an easy way to prevent the deaths of women by their male partners! It's called "men don't kill their female partners." It's that easy. Try it sometime!
Oh nice, thank you for solving the problem!
Unfortunately you cannot control other’s actions, only your own. So obviously don’t hurt your partner, or anyone else for that matter, but also GTFO if you recognize abusive behavior in your partner.
>just leave the relationship forehead
"Discard draft" was definitely the way to go and delete is still an option.
It's not so simple and easy to get away from an abusive partner. They often put on a fake persona when meeting a new partner for the first time.
You might not realize how screwed up someone is until some time later, and it's usually after they've sunk their claws into you.
If they've managed to work their tactics on people that should be your support network, it makes it even harder to leave and get help. The more skilled someone is at manipulating, the harder it is to see them as they truly are.
This woman didn't deserve to die, and the husband is clearly a threat to society if he kills someone over a TV show.
If you find yourself talking a lot to defend a prior statement maybe stop and consider it for a few minutes before posting.
Bad take aside, this is Florida we're talking about.
