I have a neighbor who confides in me a lot...and I mean a lot. She knows that I don't gossip and that I try to give her the best advice that I can. She's younger than I am and has no female friends.
Recently, while talking about trivial things, she broke down crying and told me that during an argument, her husband called her ugly and said that other women's bodies look better than hers!
I was stunned and did not know what to say. I.was.speechless!!! She did gain s massive amount of weight after her last baby but no one deserves to be put down like this.
I told her that she needed to seek counseling and that she was beautiful no matter what anyone said.
But now, I'm so angry for her that I've been avoiding her and her husband. I feel so awkward now. However, I do still engage with their kids.
Any advice?
(I posed this question on another site. Because they didn't believe me,
they complained and said that I made this story up...which got me banned).
