Hello Joseph,
Immitating relationships in real life, sometimes television shows us real life situations. Not all couples are good to each other, so much as in real life, you will see stories where boyfriends, or husband and wife, or girlfriend and boyfriend mistreat each other or are mistreated.
Generally, if you love the other person enough, you try to work out your differences and try to forgive the hurt, but sometimes, it's better to get out of the relationship because it does nothing good for your self esteem.
This is something that doesn't only happen in the gay world, but also very often (too often) in the straight world where wives (or husbands) are beaten or put down and treated very abusively.
I'm guessing the screenplay writers of Hollyoaks are trying to put a little bit of that drama into their series, maybe to see how far the characters can take a beating before they start looking for help, or escaping from their abusive partner.
