i believe that doing the right thing is the best love one can show anyone. sometimes it is tough and feels rude. but if some good is going to come out of it (your friend might , 'might', might understand at some point what price she's having to pay for latching on to a rope that is itself rotting) it is a stance, you have to take. i wish you well, and fervently hope that even your friend sees the sense in leaving him. you have a decision to make, i wish you strength.

Not Betrayal..Honesty.

Some people have a thing for "bad boys" or "bad Girls". They see something in a person of their choosing known only to them. A lot of times. the relationship foes really bad and "until death do us part" is taken literally. Be honest with your friend, but be prepared for the fall out. Good Luck

I think you are so right that he will weasel himself back in if she stays! I could not tolerate an upset home, either! I think this is a form of tough love as well! So sorry she cannot find her way away from him! He must have a captivating hold on her! sam

she has low self esteem and a weak personality or she wouldnt of given into the temptation of the drugs and a boy friend that abuses her instead of lifting her spirts he brings her down, tell her she will lose all her friends including you if she doesnt do something to improve her way of life

You have to do what you have to do. Such a scary situation to be in. I would want them out too.

love I lostallmy friends during my second marriage to abusive

numb nuts. He cost me so much; but I can't blame any of those peopleformoving on. A friend can and will only take so much and when I couldn't talk on the phone because of him, they drifted off. You will ahve to let go too probably don't make a big thing of it, just let go gently.I'm sorry for her, but while she's with him, she can't be with you.
