Being Supportive depends on the Situation

Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well. I have a friend who has just gotten a little upset with me because I am not too supportive of a certain thing she's doing. So she met this guy some time ago and based on how he responds and treats her, he really loves her. But she is more of wanting to take what the guy has and not really wanting a relationship with him. She doesn't work but he does and in a wonderful job too and he is always giving her everything she needs. I told her straight up that if she doesn't want to be with the guy she should not take what he has and stop making him feel like she really care. She told me I am just jealous of her but I just want to protect her because since recently I have seen a lot of guys attacking and also killing females who do this to them. Am I wrong for not supporting her?

She should be careful, people can get very upset when they find out they are being used.

No. She needs to open her eyes and listen to you.

What she's doing is obviously wrong and selfish. You did the right thing by giving her that advice. I hope she comes back to her senses and realizes that.

You are doing the right thing and you can only do so much. Ultimately she has to do the right thing but it doesn't seem like she is willing to.

The situation is sort of filmy... Let her be the way. You already done your job by warning her.Its her choice to chose her life.

Your just being a good friend. Not tolerating her is a good thing. You are a real friend. She doesn't realize it right now. She thinks your jealous but she doesn't see the whole picture and the consequences that might happen if the guy finds out he is being used only. What if the guy turned to be a psycho? Hope not!

I really hope he doesn't and she really needs to think on the long term consequences if anything should happen.

You are not wrong for not supporting her. Using someone for what they can give you is wrong especially if you are leading them on and don't really want them in the same way. Being a good friend isn't about 100% support no matter what, a true good friend tells you what you need to hear good or bad especially when you're just watching out for their well being

So true I am just trying to show her the right thing because so many things can go wrong in situations like these. It is really not right to take advantage of people.

The only thing you can do is offer your advice but she doesn't have to follow it. She will listen when her mind is open to it. I just hope she is careful.
