So I just got woken up by a text from my best friend saying she needs to tell me something, her and her fiancé have been drinking and he’d put his hands around her neck and pushed her.

She says he just snapped and changed. Said that he hasn’t done that before, but that something like that seems to happen ever so often.

I replied with the obvious advice, she needs to get out now before they get married and that although people can change, they won’t change if the situation remains the same.

They’re just about to complete on a house buy and she revealed to me that the house is only in her name which is a red flag, why would she need to do that? They’ve split up previously on numerous occasions due to him sending messages to other women and them saying they don’t love each other etc etc.

My reason for posting is, I’m fairly certain she’s still drunk as she is texting me and although I’m not saying something didn’t happen, I don’t know whether she’s telling the full truth because she seems to do this when they drink - get dramatic. She knows I will say to leave him, she agrees and then it’s just back to normal.

I’m due on Saturday and could really do without this but I also need to be there for her. I said she should tell her mum as once you tell a parent it’s hard not to take action (I have found) Any advice? 😪
