the big jealousy induced savaging that injures her a lot can’t be tolerated. The author should have written her going to the hospital and showing her parents proof to finally get a divorce. Instead she has her cover it up, blame her first love ex for making that b*st*rd jealous (who by the way says “sorry” again), saying she’ll forgive him if he kneels on a washboard for 30 minutes, covering it up for the inlaws. And what’s mindblowing is her inner monologue that this will be a miserable life bc he gives her good s*x but also violently r*pes her when he’s really angry. She even asks him to let her rest before he assaults her when he’s angry that the ex took her to replace the phone he broke during the savaging. This is classic symptom of being mentally beaten down by him using s*x to dominate her throughout the story. Even the ex calls out domestic abuse and tries to take her to the hospital but she lies and says they love each other. I disgustedly threw up my hands at this point
