I had a loved one, also male with a a partner who was a bit of an Amber, who was caught up in a toxic relationship. It can be so clear from the outside that things need to end, and hard to understand why the people themselves persist. With my loved one, and perhaps with JD, he wanted very much to believe that the persona his partner originally presented was the “real” one and he kept hoping that with enough love, that person would reappear. There was also substance abuse involved, which kept them from thinking rationally. ...
Same here. I've watched someone I love very much go through this same type of situation which is probably why I can see AH for exactly what she is. They are very good at what they do and even better at playing the victim. If they only looked in the mirror long enough to see themselves, they too, would be disgusted by their own behavior.
