[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She’s in her late 20s and has a bit of a short temper. Shea been hitting her boyfriend during arguments—slapping, pulling his hair, kicking him, throwing things,or whatever else happens in the heat of the moment.

He’s a really nice guy, and I don’t believe he’s violent toward her in any way. From what I can tell and what she says, he’s good to her. I’ve already talked to my sister about it, but she doesn’t think she’s doing anything wrong. She gets defensive when I bring it up and is very stubborn, so she doesn’t listen to anyone’s advice.

The thing is, this isn’t the first time she’s been physical in a relationship. She’s done this to past partners as well. I’m worried this could escalate, and I’m not sure how to handle it. What’s the best way to approach something like this without making things worse? I’m concerned about her safety.[/quote]

Why is this your problem?

You said you’re married and busy. Not clear if you all are even local to each other.

You assume you know about someone else’s marriage, arguments, and why they don’t want to talk to you about it.

Are you asking DCUM for permission to throw her under the bus and go tell her dates she’s a terrible terrible person and to run for hills?  Sure if you’re omniscient and this date can’t figure things out, go spend your time doing that.[/quote]
