Ooof. I'm incredibly glad to find a game and ramble that actually explores the unfortunate reality that when someone hurts you, you don't necessarily hate them. And worse, that people will judge you for this, because if you leave an abuser, they must be a complete monster, or else why would you leave them? My situation and feelings don't match this one particularly, but the feelings still resonate, because it always feels the same. Feeling sorry for your abuser. Thinking you can make it right with your abuser. People turning their nose up if you DARE think about the abuser, or abuse, with anything less than revulsion, or even the ways you cope afterwards as if it makes you just as bad to do something deemed "distasteful". Sorry for the ramble myself, I'm just VERY glad to see something where, as you put it, the victim isn't just "ok" after leaving an honestly bad situation.
