Hey....not been on here in a while...

I moved out of my parents house to live with a friend who i thought i would get along with fine as we have been friends for about 3 years previous...heres the tricky bit she has started being violent towards me if i make a mistake or say something wrong....im not allowed to resist or even defend myself it seems and she blames me if she hurts herself while she is being violent...we have a contract for the house we are in and lots of pets...im also in my final year of university so dont need this but if i leave id feel guilty about leaving with the pets and house....im really not sure what to do here at all i feel like i shouldnt tell anyone and because im really her only friend id feel bad about that

do you have any idea why she's started actng this way? Would you feel able to talk to someone about what's going on, maybe even speaking to someone at the uni, like a housing adviser or the uni counsellor?

It sounds like a difficult situation to be in. Are you able to talk to her when she's calmer to let her know that the way she is treating you is not okay? Maybe say to her if it continues, you will have no choice but to leave. You have no right to be treated this way. I would also talk to someone else like another friend or relative or even a uni counsellor about what is going on so you can have that extra support. Take care

Hey....thought i would write a little update....i did try talking to her but with no result...in fact things escalated to the point that id had enough of the violence and threats that i walkef back home to my parents house at 2am in the morning...apparently they had thought something had been wrong for a while as theyd seen scratches and bruises etc that i had at the time tried to explain away but i told them and a few friends at uni and feel more relaxed now though she is still lying about everything to everyone and still expects me to be friends with her though at the moment i cant find it within myself to care if i am brutally honest...i kinda feel stupid right nowtbh...
