We are both 29. I have tried to talk to her but she won’t hear anything against him.
She has now had to take time off work and wear sunglasses because her black eyes look so bad. She tried to make out she walked into the wardrobe door.
There must be something I can do to help her. I am so worried for her. Supposing he really damages her?
DEIDRE SANDERS: You can’t make your friend get help but don’t give up. She is shutting her mind to the true danger of her situation but that is part of an abusive relationship.
Tell her how worried you are for her and that she can come to you any hour day or night.
Ask her to talk to the National Domestic Violence Helpline – and do so yourself (0808 2000 247) or see womensaid.org.uk.
