My sentiments exactly. I have been pointing out her enabling behavior and she admits it but that is where it ends. I see a pattern of her excuse making which in reality is the only tools she got as a child. Here is a brilliant woman but emotionally crippled. Her parents will never admit that there is a problem and she seems helpless to move on. I see the father as the real culprit, by playing up his disability which is long gone, and manipulating for sympathy. His family history reflects that he did this with his mother, wife (who also still makes excuses for him) and now his daughter my bgfriend. But what I seek is an experienced opinion that this bed sharing is definitely a form or not of emotional abuse. With this perhaps I can help my friend find the courage to defend herself
The facts speak for themselves. Help her find those parasites another place to live. There is no room in that apartment for anyone other than the mother and her two children and barely that. Anything else is bullshit - which is what you are detecting big time.
She is fortunate to have a good friend to give her reality checks.
