Should I help my best friend out of what I think is a controlling relationship or just respect her wishes and sever ties?

A male United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Well my best friend told me to leave her alone after she met a guy. Her excuse is that "she doesnt want to lose her man" and he doesn't want her to keep contact with her ex lovers.

She was my fwb, then I moved and we kept the friendship. I don't have any intention to be in a serious relationship with her. Our relationship was just based on phone calls and texts nothing sexual just a pure friendship.

She ended our 15 months relationship through a text message, she was cold and didn't even call. I called her once but her bf picked up the phone then I talked to her for a short time, and she totally ignored me after that phone call.

One time her bf texted me telling me to leave her alone and she doesnt like me anymore. I replied saying you are a punk for using a yahoo screen name to text me and not even his phone number. Plus that I like to have a fight with him because he said some bad words to me.

She has lost all her friends for him. She was alone for a long time so she is like desperate to be in a relationship. But this guy seems insecure, has trust issues and is trying to control her. I texted her after that guy texted me but I got no reply so I stopped. I didnt try to contact her for the last 3 weeks.

I dunno if I should let her know that I will be there for her if she needs help or just be mad because of what she did to me and never talk to her and let her go. It is hard to judge because she doesnt communicate but it looks like she is in a controlling relationship.

dirtball agony auntThere's little you can do. Anything you do will just drive her further away. Hopefully she realizes what he's doing, but that's up to her. Walk away. When they break up she'll probably reach out to old friends.
