So my friend called me up last night bawling her eyes out. Apparently, her bf has gone off the deep end and she is really struggling. I guess they had a big fight. Something she said, and he took it totally out of context. So he left for work, and she decided to just chill at home. She had a rough night, so she had a few beers, a mimosa, and a couple Zima's. No big deal, she just needed to unwind. She tried chatting with someone on a self help site, because she really wants help with her situation.
So, her bf comes home from work, and it all starts up again. He starts trowing around words like "alcoholic". I mean come on! Who wouldn't want a couple beers after a night like she had? Plus she has been having a really rough time with a coworker being a jerk to her. Poor girl.
Her bf just keeps bothering her and asking questions about her life, and she just wants to be left alone. He wont give up! Plus, he has a habit of venting all her problems to his family and some internet forum. I mean, if he really wanted to help her, he wouldn't be telling all her drama to random people, right? So she confronted him about keeping private matters private, and he got all defensive.
Then she started telling him that it just wasn't working out, and they were on two different pages. From work, to family, and even politics - they are complete opposites. She likes Clinton, and he likes Trump. How can these two people even coexist? At one point she was even afraid that he was going to hit her like all her past boyfriends have done. The poor thing really has had a rough life.
Well, she packed her things and asked him to take her home. She just wanted to be alone with her thoughts for a while. But the whole ride home, he keeps turning down the radio and wants to talk. WTF? Can't the guy take a hint? Finally, she had enough of his shenanigans, and took a tiny bottle of nail polish and threw it just to make a point. I guess the knucklehead still didn't get the message because when he got her home, he was still telling her that he wanted to talk. No way she is going to tell him anything at this point, as she knows that he will just run to his family and the internet to spill the beans.
He wouldn't leave her house so she started yelling at him to leave. He even grabbed her arm at one point. Finally, her mom came out and ran the guy off. She went inside, and cried for hours. Then she called me asking for advice. She wants to be done with the guy, but I guess he is just too stubborn to quit. She is afraid this may turn ugly.
He keeps messaging her telling her that he just wants to "help" and "talk" like he needs to save her from something. She just wants him gone.
Any thoughts about what I should say to my friend?
