NorthDallas40 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Am I her friend or a doormat. Both. At this point YOUR feelings are being hurt by her just as much as her feelings are being hurt by her ex. You've been a good friend to her, great. But now it's time to look out for yourself and get off this merry-go-round. I'd suggest cutting contact with her until she figures out what she wants. Link to comment
evice Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 You can support her if she agrees to seek some prof. help. She needs it if she keeps returning to her abuser. You can't fix it for her. Link to comment
some-guy Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Forgot to mention that she is seeing a therapists which makes it all the more confusing. Link to comment
Excalibur Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 There's nothing confusing about it. She has no self-esteem - so the abusive man's behavior is her being treated as she deserves, and as dismissively and abusively as she treats herself. You're her retreat - not her salvation. Just leave her to her own devices...and whatever happens happens. You can't rescue someone from themselves. Link to comment
