“soliek has a point. UNless the person undergoes a major personality surgery and teshuva and makes it very clear and obvious they admit they were wrong and are trying to rectify their soul and habits”
no. not even. never. when it comes to abuse you run far, run fast and never EVER look back. there is no such thing as personality surgery…unless you mean a frontal lobotomy…and teshuva is fine as far as hashem is concerned. as far as we’re concerned…an abusive person loses their rights to the person they abused.
