Hello all,
I have this friend who is in a long term serious relationship, as in engaged to be married serious. One day he and his fiance got into an arguement and some not so nice things were said by him. She, in turn smacked him in the face as hard as she could that it left a mark....mind you this is the second time this happened. What advice would you give him?
I need to have a talk with a very close friend and I am not sure what advice to give him.
Thanks
It should never come to a point where one would hurt their mate. The abuse signs are there eary and they are not going to get any better. This is the second time this has happened and the third could be much worse, I hope not but one never knows. Domestic abuse is real and he should break off the relationship. However, it is easier said then done but domestic abuse is not something to be played with. All is take is for that one time for my mate to put his hands on me and I am done. I don't play around with hitting each other out of rage or anger. He is much better than to have to deal with being abused. He does not have to take this from anyone, and there is some one out there that will love him and does not have to put their hands on him. She has already hit him where it has put a mark on him, just think about how much worse it could of been. Arguments does not have to turn into rage where domestic abuse is involved. Yes please talk to him, he is much better than that and these are the early stages of domestic abuse. I currently counsel people on dealng with domestic abuse and how to get out of those situations. I wish him the best and I hope he really take your conversation to heart when you have it. Abuse is not to be tolerated in any relatonship.
My feelings are the same as yours. I just wanted to hear it from someone other than myself.
Booze or other involved?
Dated a drunk little thing for three years. Met her drunk, dated her drunk, all activities involved booze one way or another. When I stopped, I got to see her true colors, and learned it takes a lot not to hit back.
Both of them are abusive to each other. Not a good match and I agree with the others it's time for them to move on...it will only escalate.

You do not give any advice. He is a big boy and will make his own decisions even if they are wrong. I say this from experience DO NOT get involved, you will be the bad person if you intervene.
