So, you know how some victims of sexual abuse can have the trauma response to just kinda... Start liking it? Or find comfort in it?
Does anyone know why this happens? I want to write a character that had this happen but I don't understand a vaguely basic idea of how this can even happen. Or why.

Does anyone mind shedding some light? If you can?

My best guess so far is that it's treated as one of the few forms of "affection" that person gets, or it goes on long enough to become normalized in that person's mind. Perhaps Stockholms?

@papergal Research Stockholm Syndrome, it should tell you most of what you want to know, also "post rape hypersexuality" and "nymphomania" as a "trauma response".
