Her story sounds like the common one amongst wives in elite Delhi households. Wife swapping, auctioning wives, a night with someone's wife for a completion of business deals- it's quite common there. So I don't doubt the abusive part at all. And why she was still with him? Well, it's always difficult to come out of abusive marital relationships. Most people don't even try to. They don't even have a clue what's happening to them still years of therapy undoes that abuse. Social shame, failed wife shame all that is still very real in our society. So women does take and take abuse thinking it will be better next time around. It also depends on a person's personality how they handle abuse. Submissive and prone to self shame personalities rarely speak out. Doesn't matter from what family they belong.
Am just glad she came out of that hellhole. I hope her kids saw none of it happening. Hope she's in therapy. Stay happy,Lolo.
