I had a friends who suffer from abuse by their partners. Some suffer on physical abuse and some suffers verbal/emotional abuse. Two of my friends came to me and approach me. Both were asking for help. One being a battered wife while the other found out that her husband has another woman and when he confronted her husband, according to my friend, he said lots of nasty and degrading words. When I hear their story, I myself can't think of what good advice I can tell to them to ease their pain. I know that both has different degree of pain but I myself don't know what to do if it happen to me. IF one of you do experience these or has a friend who has similar experience what advice can you give? Which one is harder? What is the best thing they should do? Both does not want to leave their partner. Please help me to give them a good advice.

that's really unpleasant for a women to suffer on abuse by his husband ,parents are good .but husband will never permit to abuse their wife.. once you suffer from abuse by your husband .then leave him immediatly without any heistate.

I agree with you but they say that it is easier to said than done. Specially when there's a child involve.

do either of these men suffer from bipolar, depression,or anyother mental disorder,my partner spent the best part of 5 years beating me,i spent 2years finding out why. he is now on medication to help control his anger,its hard work and you have to be a really strong women to work through this,we have been together 4 nine years now.Leaving isnt the best option when u love the man.If he loves u he will help to take the steps to help himself.most of the time they dont know why they treat there wifes this way and all it takes is understanding and hard work to sort through it all.
