Sorry this may be a bit long, My best friend is in a terrible relationship, this man has isolated her and caused her to become separated from her children, family, and friends. This man has almost killed her during their time together.She claims he hasn't hit her again for a long time now and promised he wouldn't.

    Recently they “broke up”  However she's still stuck at his home due to the fact that he has drained her of every dollar she had and will not allow her to work. She's worried about her kids for Christmas before she's worried about herself or her escape. She is unable to get her kids anything due to the fact she's still stuck in this man's house and has no way to be able to make money or to even go visit one of her kids that she hasn't seen in a year because he won't allow it.

     Her other child she gets to have visit once in a while but I know it's usually always hard on her because he is mean the whole time and says nasty things about her and her kid to her because  this man is jealous of the child. The verbal abuse causes her to walk on eggshells regardless if her child is there or not. This makes her not want to let her child come over because she doesn't want either of them to see her being mistreated . When the bf says the child can't come over she is forced to make up excuses on why she can't see her child and that I know kills her more than anything . Her kids always came first until she met this predator. They are all nice in the beginning right?

   JustThis man is the biggest manipulative narcissist I've ever come across myself personally. I've noticed when he talks to my friend he makes it seem like she did something wrong when infact she hasn't it's just manipulation. She does care about him but says she can't handle the verbal abuse and it's not worth it since she has begun to question everything about herself and the way she thinks especially her self worth. She called me crying (first time she's called me in forever) I guess he left her home alone for the first time in almost a year so she made the call to me. She is ready to leave but she has all of her belongings from her house stored at his home and if she leaves it there he will burn all of it in a heartbeat, he has already broken and burned some of her irreplaceable belongings in the past when he's freaking out. He is also very intelligent and hacks all her accounts and tracks her even tho she's always with him. Now that she's ready to leave him as I stated she is stuck and the verbal abuse has gotten worse and worse what she needs to do is get a pod or moving truck to get her belongings and her childrens belongings out of there. She also found a place to stay but doesn't have any way to come up with first last and security. I think the landlord agrees to give her a break even on the security or time to pay it due to her situation and the severity of it. Is there anyone that would donate and help raise enough money to get her out of there, back with her children and away from this monster? She never been one to ask for help and I know she's been trying to get out for almost a year now unsuccessfully. She doesn't want anyone to know what she goes through and she will not be happy if I make her a “charity case” she will say. I don't have the money to lend her otherwise I’d lend it or even give it in a heart beat and I know most of her family has passed away or resides in another state. When she called me crying and mentioned her cousin that was murdered in a domestic violence situation and how she doesn't want to end up like that and that the next time I see her she will probably not be alive anymore it truly shook me to the core and I am desperate to get her the help she needs and away from this man. ASAP!!!
