How do you know that she knows it if she won't admit it? A small minority of victims deny the existence of abuse because the abuser - and the abusive relationship - fulfill important emotional, financial, and social functions for the victim.
if ur friend is in an abusive relationship n knows it but wont admit it then its not sumthin unusual..it does happen to almost all of the ppl cuz if she admits it then she must do suthin abt it n if she doesnt then she has to take the abuse n both r hard decisions to make...if u really want ur friend out then dont let her stay in that state of denial...it will only make things worse for her...i was in an abusive relationhsip for 4 yrs since i was 14 n just a few days ago i ended it...i was in denial for 2 yrs but i had to stop it n get out b4 things got worse for me...tell ur friend that it wont be easy for her to leave the relationhsip...but compare it to a drug...ur addicted to it yet u know u shud stop taking it cuz its gonna ruin ur life in the long run! i feel very lonely rite now but it doesnt mean that he was the only one for me...there r many ppl out there who will love u in a way which will not be abusive.. tell all these things to ur friend n be patient...most imp of all if she breaks up with the guy dont let her feel isolated cuz if she feels lonely there r more than 90% of the chances that she'll go back. Its so nice to see a friend who cares. God Bless!
I agree with what the previous person answered. It is very hard to leave an abusive relationship. The one thing that wasn't mentioned is the abuser has many numerous ways of depleting the victim of their self esteem and self confidence. I myself heard many times that I would never find another man who would love me like him. Honestly, I would rather take a dose of poison over the slow deliverance of death with emotional abuse. Your friend is in denial. She needs to have the strength and courage to say enough is enough. All my family and friends tried helping me too...but it was only when I wasn't going to take anymore that I walked away. For nearly five months we kept in contact and I would never recommend that to anyone leaving. When your friend makes that decision to leave all contact must be severed completly. They will also need love, support, and someone to listen to and to believe her of what she endured. There are a lot of emotions that she has repressed and she will need to get them out. God Bless

If a man is in an abusive relationship and he knows he has something great on the side why won't he leave?
I'm not sure. Maybe he is afraid to be lonely.
Type of relationship that can become abusive?
I am sure there are lots of ways a normal relationship can become abusive but there is one that sticks in my mind: A serious relationship. It is because if you are mainly the girl in a relationship (it is mostly the girl playing the victim and the guy playing the abuser) you are more into love than he is so therefore you push yourself into that serious relationship. As he knows you pushed yourself into the relationship he thinks he can control you now and since he knows it is serious he thinks that you won't run away because you love him.
How do you get your friend to admit he's gay?
Make sure that he knows he can trust you, you won't judge him and you will always be there for him and won't laugh/make fun of him.
Is it wrong to lie to your partner in a relationship?
It totally depends what your lying about . you put this in the cheating catagory so if that's what your talking about then yes , it's very wrong . my friend was just cheated on for the second time and she knows , and her boyfriend knows she knows . and he still wont admit it . he'll be out of her life by next week . so if you dont want that to happen , then dont lie .
What if your best friend likes your other best friend and he knows it and only likes her as a friend and doesn't want a relationship what do you do?
stay out of it its not ur problem
When she does not want to discuss problems in your relationship?
It is probably because she knows it is over and does not want to admit to this. It is very hard for a girl to fail at something and be honest about it.
How do you know how your relationship will be and how long?
No one ever knows for sure what will happen in their relationship, but the fact a good relationship takes hard work and for how long the relationship will go on no one knows that either. It could be due to death of one of the couples, wife/husband or an abusive relationship; one or both fall out of love, etc. In some ways we would all like to know the answer to this one, but on the other hand wouldn't it be boring if we knew the outcome.
What does it mean when you have a dream where your friend knows that a boy is going to kill you both?
She is seeing the breaking up of your friendship. The death of you both is a metphor for your relationship.
Does brady like Ashley?
duhhh he just wont admit it. he knows he loves her <3
What should you do if your husband won't let you talk to your friend on the phone or at work but she's been there for you through all of his abuse?
This is just another part of his abuse. He knows your friend has been supportive to you and he does not want her around or you to have anything to do with her. He has no right to tell you who you can speak to. He should be nicely told you will speak to her. If that will cause him to be abusive, maybe getting help to leave him would be the best bet. If he has been abusive so many times before, he will be again. You may not have your friend to help you next time. Good luck.
Is there proof that kiba likes Hinata?
I do not think he does because everyone [{(that I know)}] in naruto Knows about Hinata's confession to Naruto and that would ruin most of kiba's hope with a relationship with Hinata that he knows she likes Naruto and he does not want to ruin his best friend's relationship [do not blame me I am a NaruHina fan]
What should a guy do to ask out a girl?
Just start out with a low, steady conversation with her and let it lead to a friendship in which can be from there (after some time) turned into a very lasting relationship, it is sometimes very helpful to start out with a friend relationship simply because he or she already knows the person and their emotions, plus on how to deal with them, that helps out a lot in a new relationship (going away from the friend-zone).
