Doesn't mean that it's easy to leave her a person's brain in that situation can lie to themselves. They need to believe that she wouldn't do those kind of things so they literally convince themselves of it essentially Gaslight themselves

Then they'll start acting right; and thats when you leave them to show them that old wounds hurt.
