[QUOTE]Originally posted by Prozac: [QB] My friend has been in a relationship for over a year with this guy that she's moved in with and everything. He says he wants to marry her, but he ignores her otherwise -- she has to beg him to hug her, and they can go for weeks without touching. That's not what she wants or needs -- that's what she's said -- but she's stuck in the living situation because she doesn't have enough money to move out on her own. I think she deserves a guy who will treat her the way she needs to be treated -- with respect, affection, and love -- and that she should just become roommates with her boyfriend until she can find another place to live. I mean, he's obviously not treating her right, you know? I feel like she should at least tell her boyfriend he needs to get his act together or she'll move on and find someone better, because if he really wants to marry her, he'll do something to make her happier -- and right now she's not happy at all. But all of this stuff is just MY perspective. I don't know if I'm being overly judgmental of the boyfriend because it's one of my best friends we're talking about, or if I'm exaggerating the situation because I have a history of terrible relationships, or what. I guess what I'm asking is: How do I proceed with this friend? Do I encourage her to do anything? Remain neutral? How can I sit there and watch her boyfriend treat her in a manner that I personally think is pretty sh*tty, and then watch her take it? HELP! [/QB][/QUOTE]
