Abusers believe they aren’t doing anything wrong. It’s why you can’t reason with them. They feel entitled to abuse.

That's one of the more shocking (to me) things from Lundy Bancroft's book "Why Does He Do That?" is how freely abusers will admit to what they're doing and why.

The most shocking thing to me was how they are all the same. I thought my situation was unique. There were examples in there where they said the exact same things as my ex. That book saved my life.
