[QUOTE="BalloonsTheElephant, post: 1941250, member: 748317"] It's never just that simple. Why do battered spouses continue to live with their abusers? In any relationship where there is a power dynamic where one party is a boss or in charge of their livelihood, it complicates everything. Maybe she didn't report it initially because she thought it might ruin her career or his. Once the carrot was pulled away and she wasn't going to be working for them any longer, maybe that made her feel more comfortable reporting. I don't know what happened, and it's easy and most logical to just say "hang up the phone." There is always more to it than that. With her being a rape victim, there's a whole litany of other things going on in her head due to past trauma. The point is, Mel shouldn't have put himself in this situation in the first place for us to dissect on message boards. It's on him even if this was initially consensual. [/QUOTE]
