How to stear somebody away from a wife-beater boyfriend.

Now it's not a case of heresay. This guy has a history. 31, 3 failed marriages (one of which was a former employee at my workplace). She's even admitted to him doing a couple things that are certainly not "normal" or "accidental". On top of it, he's a leech. So we all know what's gonna happen...he's gonna suck her dry, beat the crap out of her, and leave.

Everybody else is getting frustrated trying to get through to her. I've tried talking to her and even being ultra sweet, but it's like she doesn't get the trouble and danger she's getting herself into.

How do you get into it across to somebody like this?

All you can really do is give her suggestions. I'm not saying: "Screw her, let her get her ass kicked." Oh no, I mean, all you can do is be her rock (I hate that term) if you really care about her. Some women just don't know when to give up on certain men. Some of them are blinded by fake smiles, fake promises or that good ol' American belief of: "Aw, he'll get better!"

It's good that you and your coworkers care but it will be hard if she seriously is infatuated with this guy.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
