I keep hearing people on this forum rant about how "liberals" are "socialists" but I am not sure that the people saying this really understand what socialism is. I was a political science major in college, and I would like to...

I was born into a vegetarian family and grew up a vegetarian. Sometime in my teens, I experimented with eating meat, even enjoyed it for a while, then gave it up when I began meditating. It wasn't a deliberate attempt to give it...

I don't even know where to start... I have a dear friend (we've only known each other about 8 months, but we were fast friends) and I've always been there for her. Trouble seems to follow the girl around. I can't help her much...

lingli_78 i will say forget it and just leave her alone... if she doesn't want to be help, there is nothing much you can do anymore... as you say, she is already an adult and she has to make a wise decision for herself... if she choose to be silly, then she has to bear...

melissapalardy if she is a good friend to you, then you should stick by her and hope that she gets rid of the guy. if you stop being friends with her, then it could make her turn to him even more. i would not give up on her. your friends are going to make choices that you...

Spook619 If it's domestic violence, get the police on it... particularly if you feel she is in severe danger. I would tell her to look at what he's done to her. Highlight that he cheats on her, probably more times than he admits. Tell her that the best way to get...

newbychatter I think it would be good for you to stand back a bit but not give up completely hopefully she will come to her senses soon and when she does she'll need someone who's truly there for her without any "i told you so". If you think you could be that person then...

redberry If I were to put my feet in your shoes, I really would say forget it. You've done everything you could. But if you really want to help her, you could just go and seek for professional help. or you could convince her to seek for one. I know, maybe she would...

christieanne If i were in your situation, I would give up and forget everything because you've really help her in her situation. You've done too much but she doesnt listen to your advices so at least as her friend you've already tried your best to help her at her worst.

MissAmie I love your idea. I don't want to be around her much, to be honest, but nor do I want to ditch her completely. Your idea seems like a good middle ground. There is one small problem...her hometown is pretty far away...maybe a 6 hour drive. If she did go back...
