Robert is very sympathetic to Leanne and Simon, history in his family of domestic abuse?

Amy's bedroom has been shown before to be the downstairs front room that was once Blanche's. I've no idea where Simon was sleeping though...

That's what I was thinking. I really like the way Robert won't take any sh*t from Tracy.

I thought Monday's two episodes focusing on Simon/Leanne and revenge porn storyline were pretty good. I'm glad to see Simon being portrayed as sympathetic again. I was worried he was turning into a stone cold psycho for a while!

woohoo go robert

I definately think Robert has experience domestic abuse or has had anger issues as a child himself?

that is where his empathy with Leanne is coming from

I got the feeling he had experienced abuse possibly from his dad when he was talking to Simon after he lashed out at Amy ..

Robert has become way more interesting and tolerable to me after his outburst at Tracy

I also think he has history of abuse in some way

Tracey back to her usual bitchy worst...

How can Robert - who seems like a genuinely decent guy - tolerate and be in love with someone so vile?

but if he has been a victim of abuse, being treated like cr*p is his norm? and he will not expect anything more or feel he deserves more?

That's true, although I'm not sure it applies to Robert because he's not in the least bit afraid to express his disapproval if Tracy really steps over the line. I can't understand why he so obviously dislikes her constant bitchiness but still appears to love her...

True love?? Accept your partner with all their faults?? He does tell her to wind her neck in from time to time ...So far, he looks like a dream partner to me until no doubt his dark side surfaces
