What should you do if your friend fights with her hubby in front of you?

Wow, that is too much drama to deal with! I would let her know that it's bothering me if she was a meaningful friend for me. I don't think I would be able to handle that either and as a friend you shouldn't need to. Please tell her your feelings and ask her what you can do to help... maybe there are real problems there that she doesn't even realize.

i keep my head down and move away from that place to find some peace in the garden.

Well since she is your friend maybe you could express to her how you feel about it. I think you have the right to air your concern about her. Tell her that if she can avoid those words when you two are conversing or when you are around her house. You do have the right to tell her that because for all you know she is not really conscious about what is happening when you are around.

I would tell her how much you care for her and suggest they seek counseling if she values your friend ship and then your advice to her will matter for the sake of her children who have to live this way suggest that to her good luck

Definitely avoid the situation like this. It is her household business, her personal life. Her business needed to be deal with her husband. If you were trying to interfere, you are the one would be make a fool of yourself in front of her. Don't do it. Best advise. When your friend calm down, tell her to see a therapist about their marriage. It won't last long like this.

Awkward !!! How totally uncomfortable, but that relationship sounds really really bad. Kinda like a on and Kate where the man is getting treated like dirt. I think couples should keep their fighting in private. How afwul and embarassing for him to have that happen in front of people. I would probably just tell her that you feel uncomfortable seeing that and hearing it. Maybe she can calm down bit in front of you. And the kids....no good. This shouldnt happen where there is babies.

Your friend's relationship with her husband is not healthy. Your relationship with your friend may not be that healthy either. It is not your place to keep the peace between your husband and her friend. You are not their therapist and if they ever got physical while you were present you could be hurt. Chances are she wouldn't want your advice. Your friend is obviously very unhappy and is picking fights to lash out at her husband for some hurt or injury in the past. This thing she is carrying in her heart may not even have anything to do with her husband but he is the chosen target for her aggression because she doesn't know how to resolve this old hurt she still carries. If it is true that he abuses her she should seek help. No matter what the reason women stay in abusive relationships the fact is they are not healthy situations and staying makes you unhealthy. The chances are though from your description that she is the one abusing him. If he were the abuser you would see signs even in the absence of bruises. Adults address their problem with maturity and TALK about their feelings in respectful ways. No matter what you say to your friend it will seem you are not on her side and this will create problems for you. Your friend and her husband need marriage counseling to get to the root of their problems and until they decide there is a problem it won't get fixed. As far as her being your only friend this is something you need to fix. It is relatively easy to make friends and you seem to be a nice and caring person so you only need to show that to others and you will have more friends than you can handle. It is important for you to have other friends because one person can not meet all of the needs you have for companionship. You should have friends who share your different interests, who can be there for you and vice versa and not bring endless drama to your life. You need to surround yourself with people who are healthy who will enrich your life and support and encourage you as you move forward in yours. Good luck.
