A male United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

My, best friend, I believe, is in a bad relationship. I know he has considered cheating. His girlfriend is very controlling. She has forbid him from talking to certain girls at school who he is friends with. She also makes it so he has no free time. It has gotten so bad that i haven't been able to have him over in months. If she sees him talking to anyone she gets mad at him. About every four weeks they get in a fight over something stupid like which movie to see. They will not talk to each other all day and he ends up crying and depressed. They say they love each other and that they are going to get married, and they truly think they will. I see his girlfriend all the time with another guy, their not related, but seem to close to each other to be just friends.

Now here are the questions:

Is my friend in a bad relationship?

If, yes, should I tell him?

Should I tell him that I know all of this stuff because he doesn't know I know?

BB_Sweetie agony auntBy the way, tell him not to cheat, it will defiantly complicate the process!!! It will be worse and actually give the other girl a reason to be very bossy and have a watchful eye on him, so no matter what, Do Not Let Him Cheat!!! Good Luck Yet Again~

BB_Sweetie agony auntSorry to say but DEFFINATLY TELL HIM!!!

Don't let him stay one more day with that girl, friends usually only get concerned as you when its very bad and by reading this, it is defiantly very bad, my boyfriend had the same problem before me actually, and well I congratulate you in being concerned for your friend, be aware that he Might ignore you but don't get alarmed, he will be thinking about it later on by himself on what to do, just make sure your completely honest with your bud! He is your friend after all and sometimes people need a little push to do better in things, by listening to the description of this girl I can clearly see why you are concerned, but tell him, and make sure he understands everything your telling him. If he refuses to listen tell him you are concerned for his wellbeing and you are his friend and wouldn't wish something bad for him. Let him know your opinion and leave the rest to him, sadly it is his life and you can't exactly change it by your own will, he has to do it himself but the best thing you could do is give him support and let him know your still his best bud and that you do care. Don't forget to tell him how you and others see and opinion on her actions. A bit cheesy, I know, but its a very important step and is for the better!!! Well,I know you'll help him out~ Good Luck~
