Getting out of an abusive relationship
Relationship Stress / by tsahay
Last post

...See more Hello listeners. I have found a lot of help here, which is why I want some advice on how to help a friend now. A very close friend of mine has been in a psychologically abusive relationship for over 3 years now. Her partner has unsolicited pictures of her and constantly threatens to release them to public if she breaks up with him. He also has a temper, and has threatened to have her nephew murdered, cheated on her, blackmailed her with suicide and drank poisonous alcohol in front of her to manipulate her into staying with him. She has often told me that she is fed up and scared and doesnt want to stay in this relationship, but everytime she confronts him, he throws a crying fit, begging and apologizing to give him one more chance, and she gives in. I care for her deeply, and have been trying to help her realize her own worth, so she can find the strength to get out of this relationship, but whatever I have tried hasnt worked so far.... Im afraid that if he can manipulate her like this in a long distance relationship, things might get even worse if they live together or get married... How can I help her? Can I help her at all? And if I can, what should I do? I would be eternally grateful for any help I can get...
