Friends who think emotional abuse is normal
Trauma Support / by LexiconLover8

...See more I got out of an emotionally abusive relationship a month and a half ago... but I find some of my friends think that the behaviors are normal for all relationships. They think gaslighting, manipulating, lying, comparing, abandonment, control, all these things are normal to them. Sometimes they don’t understand why I left, or that all partners do this to eachother.... sometimes I worry that they’re right and all intimate relationships do dissolve down to this toxic pattern. I hope they’re wrong. How do you challenge thoughts like this?
