Intelligence has absolutely nothing to do with it. It's not about someone getting it through their head that 'hey you shouldn't be with that guy, he hits women.' These situations often happen because of self esteem issues, not the victim being devoid of logic or lacking information. Many incredibly bright women have started relationships they shouldn't have. They've been beaten nearly to death and gone back to their abusers.Takes a lot for many people to get rid of the idea that they deserve what's happening to them when they get hit by a partner. I don't want to assume what's going on with this particular woman, but as for why she started the relationship, it could've well been because Robby swore his wife was lying to cause trouble.
