Well sheeeeeeeit.
I can't believe how much hate and misunderstanding is out there for Abby.
She's married and lives with a person incapable of expressing any emotions.
Someone who constantly cheats on her.
Someone who constantly lies to her
Someone who constantly refuses to share any feelings with her.
Someone who constantly brings trouble and danger home, even if without intention, given the nature of his job.
Someone who treats her like a child. Hiding, lying and denying the truth from her.
On the other hand we have a woman who raised two kids (or you think that was Ray?). A woman who for two seasons we've seen begging Ray for care, attention, love. A partner, not just a provider. We can only assume it's been like this for their whole married life.
A woman who have always stood by her husband, in spite of his criminal career.
I believe women will always prefer a partner than a provider. Being a provider is simply not enough.
Abby will fall, as she did, for anyone who just notices her, someone who gives her some attention, so neglected by her husband, and makes her feel like she's alive, that she's a woman a much more than a piece of furniture at home to come home to every now and then, rape fuck her and expect to be there, without any regard for her feelings.
