I'm so interested in what they even do with Amber going forward. Like there's no way in HELL they do the abuse subplot.

Didn't she meet a guy in season 1 that had the same name as the abuser guy?

u/KBSinclair Doc Seismic Nov 10 '23

They easily could.

No way. This Amber would never put up with that.

You never know what you can endure until it happens to you. You can imagine, you can even train, but the only way to know how someone will react to something is if they go through it. And you don't seem to know much about abusive relationship dynamics if you think her character makes her immune to falling victim through it. Especially when abusers are insidious manipulators that break down people's spirit to make their victim dependent and excuse their behavior.

Maybe, but I just don't buy this Amber staying with someone who hits her under any circumstances. I admit she could get with someone who hits her once, but I don't think she'd stay.

Again, you need to read more on abusive relationships. People are manipulated into excusing their partner's behavior for any number of reasons, regardless of what type of person they tend to be with other people.

People are never hit as first thing abusers do. Their sense of self esteem is destroyed slowly over time to the point where they can be hit and accept it. Some of the victims of abuse were the strongest people their families knew before abuse

everyone can be a victim of abuse. Even Mark….

Mark was physically overpowered by someone significantly more powerful than him at the time
