stuck to
Didn't abandon it
Stuck to means adhered to or remained faithful to something.
Physically, it describes surfaces that won't separate: The label stuck to the jar.
More often it's figurative—maintaining a position, plan, or commitment despite pressure to change: She stuck to her story, He stuck to the diet for three months.
To stick to your guns is to refuse to back down.
