We used to call that the "wounded bird syndrome". Women who take in obvious losers because they think they're the only ones in the world who can 'rehabilitate' them.
It's a drama that gives them the spotlight, win or lose. Until she realizes that takers only strip her down of everything, she will continue to bask in the loser's spotlight.
I'd say "see ya til you wake up" if you really can't deal with it all.
