...abusive relationship? My friend and I are both eighteen years old and both seniors in high school. Ever since November 2009 my friend hasn't been the same. She had been involved with this girl that claimed to have a bunch of family problems. She claimed she had been molested, that her mom hated her, that she couldn't succeed with her home life. So my friend spent all the money she had trying to help her friend with therapy and education like Huntington WHICH IS EXPENSIVE. Then she paid for her GED. She also got her to move in with her aunt after a year of trying to convince her aunt that things at home were not right. She spent two years of her life trying to help this girl and then randomly, the girl started spacing away from her. She claimed it was because of the GED classes but my friend just needed her as a friend. She was stressed. She'd dealt with social workers, the girl's mom, the cops, etc, etc. She tried everything to help this girl with the so-called molestation and she was overwhelmed too. She just needed her to be a friend back and then the girl just deletes her from myspace, changes her number, blocks her from facebook. Completely deletes her from her life. Two months later... the girl's back with her mom and they're all lovey dovey. She's also on her way to going to a community college. My friend... ever since then... hasn't been the same. She doesn't trust anyone. She thinks about it all the time. She's let go of herself aka hygiene, gained weight, and cries often about it. She feels betrayed and she doesn't trust anyone anymore. Idk what to do because I've never had anything like this happen to me. How can I help? And why is my friend so broken up about this? Obviously it's because she was lied to and betrayed but she usually is able to pick herself up after people like this come along. This time... it was different. What can I do? Two years of her life = wasted. And now she's forgetting how important she is.

I've tried talking to her, everything. But she's lost faith in God and in herself. She doesn't really need God but she at least needs spirtuality or faith herself...
Anyway, if anyone can help, please, please, please do.
I'll give you as many points as I can. I just don't know what to do. I'm desperate.
My friend doesn't have any money for therapy anymore. She spent all her money on this bitch. :|
 
Tell her that she made someones life better and if that someone is an ungrateful little bitch than i suggest she go up to that person and tell her than and after she does that give her a hug and say "that's my girl"

Sounds like your friend needs some therapy. BAD! if she has the money she has nothing to lose. Therapy would really do her a world of good.
