"They're together again. They care for each other," says the source. The on-again couple are currently spending time together at one of Sean "Diddy" Combs's homes.
I hope she's happy and I hope that she will get everything that she is going to have coming her. What a dumbass.
#1 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 8:29 PM ESTOnce a beater, always a beater. Too bad our sons and daughters are viewing all of this!
There are so many more men out there that would treat her better. Stupid woman. I never did understand why someone would want to be in an abusive relationship. She either has no self respect or just plain stupid.
Once a beater, always a beater
True that.
Stupid woman.
Not that she's above criticism, because if this is true it's idiotic, but it's really possible that she has a history of physical abuse - thus getting into relationships with abusers and equating love with abuse - and so staying with Brown.
Tons of Viners are echoing this below me. She should leave him for a million reasons, not least of which being her career. [Sorry for the pragmatism, but nothing could be worse for someone who's forged an image of 'sassy independent risk-taker' than sticking with an abusive boyfriend'.]
And WTH are they doing in one of Diddy's mansions?
Maybe she'll kill HIM next time. She needs a gun.
As Tyler Perry said, "Throw some hot grits on his ass.... he'll stop'.
Who is surprised that she went back to her abuser. I'm sure that since he beat the hell out of her, that he has been so apologetic and repentant, and has pursued her, promising to NEVER do it again..... unless she provokes him again. This is a text book case of abuse.
The abuser will always be so sorry that his victim was acting badly, and therefore "forced" him to do what he didn't want to..... knock the living hell out of her. And there is absolutely NOTHING anyone can do to convince this woman that an abuser does not stop..... it will just escalate the next time. Too bad a lot of women sometimes pay the ultimate price for that lesson..... with their life.
Abusers and their victims comes in every form, including race, age, geographic, socioeconomic status, religion, etc. Abusers don't always walk around with a sign stamped on their forehead, or look like monsters. There should be zero tolerance for abuse, and one should get out immediately - no matter how much you think that you love this person. By staying, or keep coming back is giving your abuser permission to continue the abuse, except each time it happens.... it just gets easier to do and the punishments only gets worst. At least, there are no children involved...... yet.
Abuse, of ANY KIND, is NEVER to be taken lightly.
It's not love Miss Fenty......you are young and i understand why your insecurity is misleading you. This is not about love....Chris Brown is only trying to SAVE his career at your expense. You are going to lose alot of supporters and fans, both men and women. Be WISE my dear. But then again WISDOM comes with AGE which is where you are lacking. Luckily you can learn from other people here who are sharing their experiences. I tell you what, leave him now while you are still upset about what he did to you. And you better not pull that " i forgive him" naive excuse. Get out now. Don't give him that much control. He is not worth it. He does not deserve it either.
Do you think you are beautiful or pretty?
If you think you are pretty then reconcile with him. It tells me that you are empty and lacking substance.
If you know you are beautiful, then you will know from within (your spirit) that getting back with him is a wrong move. Beautiful women gain inspiration from their inner strength. Beautiful women are strong and can make and take tough but necessary decisions in order to stay beautiful, like moving on from a partner that has no self-respect, no respect for you, obviously, and no respect for your family.
Come on Carribean sister wake up!!!!!
Not a very smart move. She will get beaten again.
For lack of a better word Dumb Ass just fits. Remember how Bobby Brown derailed the career and life of the talented and beautiful W. Houston. Wake up !!!!!!!!!!!
Gee, that's great...
The next time she gets beat up or killed (and she will), I hope the media will do us all a big favor by NOT reporting it.
You know, insanity is defined as "doing the same stuff you've always done and expecting a different result."
When Chris Brown beats her again, I hope she remembers that--because I will declare her officially insane.
Tita totally agree she is beyond dumb ass, BOTH of thier records need to be boycotted, I never liked her or him anyway she is really stupid and believe it she will get more of the same if he don't kill her. Pathetic Rhianna.
How sad! I hope she survives the next one cause there will be a next time and they usuallly progress in violence..
I know this is going to sound bad, so I will just go ahead and say it.
The first time she is a victim. If she decides to stay with him then she deserves every bruise and broken bone she gets.
No I am not condoning his actions. Brown should be a man and not a punk. Real men don't hit women. But this woman is an idiot, I think she is more worried about HER street cred and HER album sales over anything else.
This thread is so disturbing to this survivor of abuse. The blame on Rhianna is misplaced and a form of mental abuse itself. I'm kind of shocked at this attack on her.
What Rhianna is doing is common, is the *norm* in abuse. It's called Battered Woman Syndrome and it's part of the illness and cycle of abuse. Battered women go back to their abusers an average of 6 times. An AVERAGE...
It took me 8 times to finally break the dependence. It's a crazy cycle, but it's the absolutely typical response of most women...
Have compassion for her! And understanding. and love. and lots of prayer that she wakes up, gets the support she needs, and breaks the cycle and really gets out. Heaping more verbal abuse on her, like in this thread, will only drive her in deeper...
This is pretty typical of the battered woman syndrome. There is what is known as a cycle, and they make sweet and he loves her so and apologizes and she makes excuses. What is sad is that she feels she must accept this behavior in order to earn his love. They both need therapy! Her, what makes her believe this is acceptable in a relationship; him, why does he think battering equates to love.
Ya know what, what's love got to do with it. But she is young and clearly needs some help to understand why she is enabling the behavior. You go girl--all the way to the grave!! And what kind of role model are you?? Or him?
#2 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 8:53 PM ESTI think its psychologically similar to Stockholm syndrome.
Why go back to a jackass who only knows how to beat on you. And says that he loves you. Walk away and don't look back. It's not worth going to the ER everytime he gets angry. Plus he won't hit a man because he's a coward.
#4 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 8:56 PM ESTThey're together again until the next time he beats on her. Abusers don't change without help. But then, I'm sure it was all her fault-she made him mad. Same old excuses.
#5 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 8:58 PM ESTCorrect to the point of "abusers don't change without help."
they are back together because this is what women do. That's a mighty fine messeage she's sending out to Brown and all the young girls that look up to her and all the battered women out there. I'm sure Chris spit out the obligatory "I'm sorry baby and I promise you it won't happen again." Works all the time! Way to stay strong Rihanna! So all you women out there please feel free to tell me how I just don't understand. Please enlighten me.
Oh yeah, I hope I never love my wife the way Chris loves Rihanna.
#6 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 8:59 PM ESTReturning to an abuser IS NOT WHAT WOMEN DO!!! It is what a stupid, insecure, person with NO SELF ESTEEM does. Men or women with no respect for themselves will continue falling for these CREEPS!!
I have absolutely NO RESPECT for Rihanna or Chris! How can she possible 'sing' about anything with any conviction when the world knows she has no backbone and will fall for any sorry sap. In my view, both careers just got flushed down the toilet.
Here's a hint Diddy, Jay-Z, and all the other "manager" that have been banking on these "Stars", ----15 minutes are officially over, find your next Miss and Mr THING.
At some point, I actually had respect for her...
#7 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 9:10 PM ESTMy feelings, exactly!
Rhianna is just another of thousands of women whose only experience of a man's love is a beating. It's not the first time she's been beaten and it won't be the last. The only reason this was made public was because they missed the show.
#8 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 9:11 PM ESTShe is wasting everyone's time.
With this revalation she got what she deserves, if she is that stupid leave her to her own demise. She should not call the police when he beats her again. She needs to cower in the corner and take her lumps. She chose this, by her own accord. It will happen, a leopard does not change its spots.
#9 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 9:50 PM ESTYour a real idiot to say something like that. There is NO woman in this world- celebrity or not- who deserves this..NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!
Melody, you seem to miss the point. By 'going back to him', its just a matter of time before she ends up cowering in a corner! She's returning to the same volitale environment. What she says or does to 'trigger' another attack is just an excuse for him. The bottomline, is that HE WILL HIT HER AGAIN. She just gave him Carte Blanche, a free ticket, to do it all again!

One other thing, if I were the DA I would still charge him and take it to court. Phukts like him deserve no break. You never hit a woman, ever. Good men walk away, everytime!
#10 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 9:56 PM ESTKMartin1959... you got it 100% right on the DA prosecuting him. On her deserving it, you and I both know she doesn't, she is just a stupid youngster. Hopefully she doesn't get beatin' to death before she learns her lesson.
And what the phuck is the prosecutor waiting on, a corpse?
How sad ,she could show other battered women how to leave their abusers and how it is possible to have new life .How disappointing.
She is young and she will learn the hard way.
#11 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 9:56 PM ESTIf he does not kill her the next time...
Rihanna is an IDIOT. Once a beater, always a beater. I have lost all respect for her (never had any for Chris Brown...he's a no-talent).
#12 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:06 PM ESTIt not about talent is about be a Phuket man, he is useless, but many young people look at him as a role model, how sad of what we as the human race is evolving into, we reward bad behavior and shun goodness.
what's really so sad is that so many women and young girls look up to her and she had a chance to make a powerful statement and show women that they don't need to put up with physical abuse from the men who say they love them. Rihanna has fallen flat on her face on this, she has totally blown it. She better never sing any songs about being strong or standing up for yourself because the words will ring hollow.
#13 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:07 PM ESTYay, hooray, hooray, yay!!! Uhh... who is Rihanna and Chris Brown????
#14 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:14 PM ESTYeah, I never heard of them before.
I'm beginning to wonder whether Britney Spears' mental breakdown and now Rihanna and Chris Brown's "celebrity boxing" were merely publicity stunts.
#15 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:18 PM ESTThis makes me really sad. My mom was killed by an abusive boyfriend 6 years ago. I know its hard for women to leave these abusers but I dont think alot of them understand that 99% of them wont change and one day it could lead to something much more serious than a beating.
#16 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:20 PM ESTSorry about the loss of your mom...It IS hard to leave...I know...I was in an abusive marriage for 10 years...I didn't grow up around abuse....and I believed all the BS my ex told me..."it will never happen again..you made me do it..YOU say you're sorry for pissing me off"..and the list goes on....an abused person is also mentally abused and scared to leave..the abuser has complete control...I am very happy to say I have been divorced from him for a very long time...and my daughters know what to look for in an abuser and have seen from his non-contact with them what an a** he really is. I also have 2 sons who know how NOT to treat a woman. He is now married to a very controlling woman...so what goes around, comes around for some of us!!
It's all about the $$$$$$$$$$$. They both deserve each other.
#17 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:21 PM ESTREAL talent doesn't need publicity stunts!
#18 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:21 PM ESTWow! What an incredible statement. You summed it all up in six words. Thanks!
Young fools. Culture can thrive or fester, in this case, fester. Speaking from real experience...hearing relatives which i can no longer stand beat the females , and being one of the most fortunate that it didn't happen to me. Where is parenting, yet these are young adults who think they own the world and will never ever listen while they believe they are in a higher status.
#19 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:25 PM ESTTHIS is certainly front-page news!
Now I can stop taking my Xanax.
#20 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:26 PM ESTThat is a shame - Anyone that lays a hand on you, you kick them to the curb. Period. If they have it in them to do it in the first place they can and most likely will do it again. Let six months go by, all the publicity has died down and what are you left with - the same issues you had in the first place that caused all of this. Abuse is abuse and to go back to someone because they say they are sorry - well, it's just not enough. I think it's sad. She can do so much better than that creep.
#21 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:28 PM ESTAll these comments are true, you don't need to figure out what is experience or just talk. Both are wasting our time and will grow up only when they can walk away from things that are not good (hopefully very soon). Money talks, that's life.
#22 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:32 PM ESTAre you kidding me? Rihanna, next when you are near death and battered, no one is going to care. You are just asking for it. Young women need be strong and not accept nor tolerate this kind of abuse. I don't feel sorry for her this time or the next time when it happens again.
#23 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:39 PM ESTDamn! Definitely battered woman's syndrome. Wonder what her father says about this? What the hell is SHE thinking? Maybe she thinks she can "change" him. I hope the D.A. still move forward to prosecute his abusive ass.
#24 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:45 PM ESTAnd the "cycle of violence" continues............"honeymoon period."
#25 - Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:45 PM ESTRihanna gets what she deserves! She is a terrible example to the young women who admire her. If she stays with Chris she will get beaten again! You go girl! You are a fool.
