That's not why. It's because when you intervene, sometimes the partner you're talking to gets angry at YOU because (s)he is brainwashed or smitten or whatever by the nightmare person and then becomes your enemy. You need be there for them when they realize it, but they need to come to terms on their own.
Happened to me once. Never again.
