Helping a friend give her guy the heave-ho.

My friend is madly in love with a man who is horrible to her. He cheats on her, spends all her money and he demeans and belittles her. Jerk, right?? I've told her how I feel and tried to encourage her she deserves better, but now she's pregnant with his baby. How can I save her from marrying an abusive man and bringing her child into that relationship.

I think she may have low self esteem so that she may feel that if she leaves him she may never find anyone or worried about the child growing up without the father. I would find examples of how other women have done it ...look around this site or the web to find stories that you can direct her to..it will take some time but that is your best bet.
