Hey guys. I was just thinking about a girl I know who's boyfriend hits her whenever they have arguments. I really disagree with her being with this guy but she swears she loves him still. Ladies, if you were in love with someone who abuses you, how would you handle the situation? What would you do?

Hello there...
I think I won't let this thing happen to me. I won't give my boyfriend a reason to hit me. I guess there will be abuse if you let someone abuse you. If a person is physically hurting me, I don't think I would still opt to love that person for hurting me simply shows that he doesn't even love me. If I were the someone you know, I would leave that beast. I think, he is not worth loving and....dying for.

Such savage and inconsideration.
Women are Physically weak and yet they are strong in handling their usual body conditions like menstruation, etc. men, doesn't understand that. when he feels he's hurt inside or humiliated, then she might get hit like that? I know she's blinded for now.
But i do hope she realize and wake up that this person is undoubtly hurting her. soon if she doesn't get out, she will live in fear and probably loose self respect about herself.be a friend to her keep advising her until she gets it.
Have a great day

It would be quite easy to answer this after having experienced this myself. But the only way to really help you friend is to continue to be a friend to her. Keep reminding her that is not right and that she has to find a way of this situation.
I cannot tell you to be forceful and demand she leave him as you say yourself she loves him and all is going to happen is that she will no longer friend you. It is so hard to stand back and watch this and not be able to help in any way when the help is not being listened to. So pray for her deeply and just continue to advise her that she cannot live this way. As the hitting can turn into further abuse and then her life may be at stake.
Good luck and so sorry that you have to be a third party but hopefully some day she will realize and value all you have stood by her side and trying to help.

If her boyfriend hits her now that they are not yet married, how much more if she marries him. If she really loves her boyfriend, she needs to tell him that he needs to see a doctor. I know a guy who was like him because he was also battered by his father when he was still young.
