Posted by HeavyEntertainmentShowI want to tell her that, but I'm like the only closest relative to her (geographically and emotionally). I don't want to push her away, but I don't want to see her hurt.
Tell her she's a retard & hang up. It's obvious your breath is wasted on her. No self-respecting & intelligent woman would ever go back to a scumbag like him.


Posted by brianafaySeriously!!! ?? and I don't want to feel responsible... because I know myself, if anything happens to her I'm going to blame myself...
Ridiculous
Some people make it so hard to care for them

Also, I've been in an abusive relationship so the advice I've given her in the past wasn't from me looking outside in.. it was from me being inside and now out..

God I am so furious for you
Why would she go back to that situation ?! She's lucky to have her life. I don't understand these women.
I can understand why women stay too long in abusive relationships - because they're scared to leave, scared to be alone, scared what he'll do if she leaves, etc.
But her - she left - she survived - she was removed from the situation for some time. She should have been able to see clearly and be smart enough not to ever go back.
Idk what to tell you to do or say but I feel for you
I would be beside myself

Posted by LiveAndLoveYou brought up something I didn't think about, being unavailable sometimes. Yea I think I can do that rather than completely cut her off.
I would just let her know you're there for her but if she's going to continue on the self-destruction path, you don't want to be a party to it. No one changes from what others think. She has to figure it out for herself and it's out of your hands. It's hard, watching people we love make the wrong choices. Don't beat yourself up, don't cut her off, but also don't be a listening ear every time she has a problem. Good luck with it all xo

Very similar placements to my mommy
Except she's Leo mars and Libra Venus
She's just very naive and idealistic
She wants to see the best in people and is very accepting/forgiving
My father does not abuse her but I could see her staying and making excuses if he did
She doesn't always feel worthy of love - she doesn't realize how special she is

Posted by LiveAndLovePosted by DeeLovesRedI've been that person. Your friend. When I struggled a lot with everything, nothing made me come to my senses other than everyone important in my life getting tired of my life. It was life changing for me.Posted by LiveAndLoveYou brought up something I didn't think about, being unavailable sometimes. Yea I think I can do that rather than completely cut her off.

Posted by DeeLovesRedThat's her problem, not yours. If she's too stupid or too arrogant to listen to the advice people give her - the advice she asks for in the first place - then whatever happens to her she brought it on herself. Because she allowed it.Posted by HeavyEntertainmentShowI want to tell her that, but I'm like the only closest relative to her (geographically and emotionally).

Posted by beautifulsoul74Like what you mean? Ethnicity?
OP, what's her family background?


Posted by beautifulsoul74Wow, it's crazy you mention that because he cheated on her and she found out... she tried to confront him and That's how they got into the last altercation where he broke a part of her body..
I dont want to offend my Virgo peeps but this isn't the first time I've heard or seen someone with Virgo Venus being in an abusive(verbal or physical) relationship. In the least bit with cheaters.

Posted by DeeLovesRedAsk her if you should book the surgeon in advance, this time.
My Leo cousin (female) was in an abusive relationship with a Gemini man back in 2015. He broke something on her body which she had to get surgery for (imma save the details). After the surgery she decided to leave him. They didn't keep in contact for 2016. But as of January of this year they got back in a relationship.
Now, ever since February she's been complaining about his verbal abuse and him lowering her self esteem... Today she called me asking for advice, but I didn't know what to tell her because the first time they were together I gave advice. Now that she's back with him, I simply don't know what to say!! —?
What should I do?

Posted by lady_chatterleyNo I haven't suggested that, but I want to suggest counseling because her relationship with her mom is rocky. Her mom is like a leech she'll take and manipulate her a lot.
Your thread is heartbreaking! I am going through the same thing, but with my sister.
She has Mars and Sun in Gemini in 7th house.
Gemini Sun
Virgo Moon
Cancer Merc
Cancer Venus
Gemini Mars
Libra Saturn
My bet is that your cousin will not listen until she decides to change her mind on her own.
My sister was married for 11 years to an abusive man that knocked her teeth out, busted her lip and now she has a scar, hit her while she was pregnant and many other times, emotionally and mentally abused her. He made her work 2 jobs, so she didn't have any free time. He told her when she had to come home and she had to get permission from him to go out and do anything social. She thought this was normal!
It was her first relationship. She never took anyone's advice until 11 years later she decided to leave him. She never got back with him, but all subsequent relationships they all have been emotionally and mentally abusive. She is in an unhealthy relationship right now. I don't know what to say anymore. I keep telling her she should leave him, but she doesn't. It's so frustrating!
So, I completely understand where you are coming from. I am so sorry. Have you suggested that she see a counselor or get professional help? That's what I am trying to do with my sister.

Posted by SweetLily_89Yes I agreee. I will look into the counseling thing.
Continue to love her and be of support.. Just be mindful not to take the burden unto yourself. Giving emotional support shouldn't come at your own expense, even if you need to periodically distance yourself from the situation.
You can't save her from herself.. Not being in contact supposedly for 2016 means nothing. You don't know how deep it runs and she may have not been completely honest about everything she'd been going through while they were apart.. It doesn't matter if you came from an abusive childhood or a "normal" one, once an abuser gets their claws in you, it's not easy to repair the damage that's left behind. If something happens or she decides she can't take it anymore, I suggest you convince her to get some counseling. There are community action programs that offer support groups or give free counseling for victims of DV. Maybe just finding a program and giving her the option to decide for herself now could make a difference.
