I always wondered that and I finally met not one, but TWO people who fit this criteria.

The first person was married with kids, and she's afraid to leave because she doesn't know if she's the primary breadwinner, and to divorce would mean she would struggle taking care of two kids by herself. The husband isn't abusive (her comments), but he seems to want her to be a tradwife while also wanting her to work.

The second person shared that she married her high school sweetheart. But she was already questioning things when he spouted Joe Rogan/Jordan Peterson BS, and would flip out at work on male coworkers and put words in our mouths. After a report, I learned about her marriage issues and providing support for the past few months. But all the workplace can do is give her some therapy sessions and hopes she gets the fuck out of her predicament.
