This is a rant so beware:
It's just so annoying! And sad come to that.
I have friends making the most awful decisions. A friend staying with a controlling man - even though she admitted he is isolating her from her friends and she bears all the financial weight of the household. Another friend who has taken back the bloke who dumped her and broke her heart. She got herself together, started going out a bit, talking about travelling - and wham! Back comes the original loser and she takes him back!!!!
Worst of all I have a friend from university (so only in facebook contact not face to face so I can't really sit her down and shout at her to see reason talk to her.) Facebook is full of how they are trying for a baby - which in itself is nauseating - but what's worse is that I know (she told me in the early days of the relationship) her bloke has anger management issues and did time - for physical abuse of his son with another woman - who he is now trying to get access to. The mother of the child is very resitstant to this and my friend is very harsh about her but seems to have no idea of why she might feel so strongly Why is she trying to have a baby with this man? I'm not sure if recovery for him is possible but if it is it's way too early for all that - this all happened in the last 5 years. I think it needs to be a lot longer before you can be sure he's changed and they've only been together 6 months.
I try to be a good friend and not bitch about their awful men but it's very hard - to hear them complaining one minute and then everything rosy the next. AIBU?
