There is a tragic misconception about those who are (or have been) involved in a pathological relationship. The masses seem to think we are careless, clueless, low-functioning and somehow asking for it or doomed to it. This is true for the majority of perpetrators and victims, but it is not true for all of us--not by a long shot.
About a third of those entangled in this nightmare are (or were) accomplished, attractive, high-functioning, moral individuals who had the great misfortune to get taken down by a charismatic con or master abuser, have their lives dismantled and then get destroyed, discarded or killed when there is nothing left of them to entertain the predator.

Not one person in a thousand possesses this knowledge. Be one.
