Her way of dealing with it led her to seek affection elsewhere and to the bottle as a way of coping.Most abused people continue to return to their abuser as they are conditioned to believe the abuse will stop and the abuser has changed.Sue Ellen wasn't weak, she tried hard to get JR to love her because she loved him. Her failing as a wife and her marriage ending would be a sign of weakness to her and she tried all she could for that not to happen.</blockquote>
