A close friend of mine had a semi breakdown and confessed that her DP is very controlling and verbally and physically abusive.
She decided she wanted to leave the marriage but then recently has been having doubts. I can't really understand why. It's not like he has come and asked her to return.
She asked for my advice and I told her I wouldn't go back with him but its obviously her decision. How do I make her see the light? Is it common for women in abusive and controlling relationships to be so controlled or mentally scared that they can't see the other side?
