Scenario

When your friend is in what you believe is a harmful relationship

My best friend started dating someone who I think is genuinely harmful to them, but every time I try to bring it up they get defensive and we end up fighting. I'm watching them change in ways that scare me and I don't know if I'm being a good friend by backing off or if I'm abandoning them.

More people experience this than they realize.

Love for your friend conflicts with your growing sense that speaking truth may push them away when they most need support.
