I think it has to do with emotional pathologies that jigsaw-fit together. One has a need to violently dominate, one feels she deserves to be violently dominated.

Her going back to him is simply a sign that she has not accepted the fact that she doesn't deserve this treatment and doesn't need to take it. Which is tragic.
