not about me personally or anyone i know!! but i saw this online on a different app and wanted your opinion, just for fun! i like seeing everyone’s perspectives! okay so, if someone you know and you’re close to (friend, best friend, or a family member) was in a toxic/ abusive relationship would you still be friends with them and try to help get them out or would you cut them off for your own safety and mental health?

This was (one of) my bestie for years. She had 3 IVO’s on her partner, each one with a year expiration date, 3yrs in a row. She let him visit the kids supervised but she knew for her peace of mind if he F*ks up even ONCE she can call the cops and they’ll put him behind bars so that was her security blanket to his abuse. Did I cut her off- course not, she was one of the few mums I found that liked taking her kids out like I did so we did play dates 2-3* a week for years. She knew I didn’t like him and she knew I was there for her I told her even if she needed someone at 2am IDC, girl call me (she lived 5mins away) On her own she moved interstate away from him anyway. She left when she was ready, would’ve been no point me telling her that, she knew. She just needed time.

100% still be friends with them and try to help them
