All abusers perpetrating domestic violence do have moments when they turn loveable and remorseful about behavior. However, this does not mean that the abuser has changed. In fact, the next episode of rage would be just round the corner when you would end up being used as a punching bag.
Victims of domestic violence have to realize and believe that the violence is not their fault. It has nothing to do with what you wear or how to keep your home. The abuser uses domestic violence with a desire to have total control over you and to break your self-esteem to such an extent that you do not have the courage or the will power to leave.
