I'm trying to tell her this but she doesn't care..

Okay, so my bestie’s dating this dude who’s super religious. He talks about God all the time and treats her like crap. Like, last week, she wanted to go see a movie with me but he got all pissy cause “people don’t hang out on Saturdays like that.” Then he made her cancel on me.

And he talks down to her every freaking time. He’ll be like “A good girl would cook dinner every night” or “You should dress more modestly, people are staring.” She’s out here thinking he’s “godly” so he must be a good partner, but nah. Dude’s controlling as hell, and she’s too caught up in “he’s religious, so he’s a good guy” to see it.

I’ve tried telling her that religion don’t make someone nice but she just can't understand. It’s so frustrating cause I just want her to be happy not stuck with a guy who uses faith to boss her around.

Red flags look innocent when you’ve got rose colored glasses on… all you can do is continue to point out the red flags RESPECTFULLY and support her through whatever decisions she makes and what she’s going through. Eventually the glasses will come off

You care for her and that is so obvious! Hun, if she hasn’t taken your advice and won’t listen all you can tell her is that you will be there for her through it all. And if she ever finally comes to the realization and she snaps out of it, just be there for her. Don’t tell her “I told you so” that won’t help things and won’t make her feel any better. You’re doing the best you can. Keep trying tho! Don’t give up! You love and care for her and want what’s best, clear as day! I bet she’ll even thank you one day! Keep both of y’all’s heads up! You’ve got this!
