Just finished a call with my sister. She has been with her boyfriend for nearly two years. They are currently in lockdown together but she works four days a week .
She told me today that he has said that he doesn't think he'll ever love a woman as much as he loved his first girlfriend.it was in the context of how hurt they'd been in the past. She seemed disappointed but I was shocked that he would say that. I now wonder if hens serious about her as she thinks he is? The man is 34 btw!

Verdict: emotionally unavailable (his excuse being the long ago ex now on a relationship pedestal) or emotionally abusive (torturing your sister that she's never enough and she'll kill herself trying to measure up to the unmeasurable).

Advice: whatever the reason to say such a hurtful thing, there's no future in this. She needs to leave and find someone decent and emotionally available.
