Re: Abusive Friend- what do I do?EDITED

Couple of questions:

I'm still trying to work out what would make him abusive, but how is hitting a woman cowardly? Fear of control over her? I don't think it's jealousy- that's never been his issue. Knowing that she can't fight back? You're comment about him seeing me as a physical threat- I'm teeny, five three at most. He's never hurt me. He's never hurt the other girls he's friends with, and none of them are 300 pounds or able to kick the shit out of a six foot of taller athlete.

And really, please don't judge me. You don't know the shit she's put me, and my friends through, before dating him and during. She's a bitch, and psycho. She's not the issue, and though I know she's a victim, my focus is on him; on getting some sense into him, trying to find out why he hurt her, and seeing if I can salvage any kind of friendship with him. She can go f**k herself for all I care, I want him to change, to not hurt anyone in the future, god forbid women or children. He's not going to f**king turn into someone's horrible nightmare, as long as I can do anything about it. I just don't know what I can do about it. But giving up on him won't help his future girlfriends, will it? Tweet
