My brother has proposed to his fiancé. The last girlfriend he had, he gave two black eyes to and tried to strangle her. I did warn previous girlfriends he was domestically violent, but then basically every time they couldn't cope with his rages they used to call me. I tried to give advice early on to encourage them to leave, but they refused claiming they loved him. My brother used to abuse me as a child, beating me and trying to strangle me and sexual abuse, so its really difficult to talk to them in the first place let alone when his partners completely choose to ignore me anyway.
He's now proposed to his girlfriend of two years, at the moment there are no visible signs of violence. Part of me wants to believe he's turned over a new leaf, but I am not sure he has. He's forty and been violent from the age of 10 to 38, there seems little abatement, and his usual pattern is to get them into a committed relationship before he starts to be violent, so although this latest stint appears incident free, that's really only perception rather than fact.
I don't really know what to do- should I warn her?
