My mother has been dating this guy for about 4 years. Since day one he's been a complete loser and being that I and my brother live with her, it gets old. He told her he "loved" her since day one and persuaded her into letting him move in with us. Now, he doesn't "live" with us but he literally stays over every night until we tell her we're getting tired of it or she gets mad at him, then she tells him he needs to go home because we don't want him here. He puts her down, always saying he doesn't like her hair or he doesn't think she should be eating that, etc. etc. He's hit on me. He's said inappropriate things in front of me and my family. He is very immature. He puffs up and pouts when things don't go his way. He picks fights with me and likes to stir things up. He acts like he owns her house, her car, HER. And most of all, he's changed her. She lies to us, always giving us what she thinks we "want" to hear, instead of being honest. She lost a job due to him coming to her office and staying daily (This shows how controlling he is, there's so many examples I can give). She has become almost the opposite of what she used to be. No longer dedicated to her family and herself. Just dedicated to him. She says all the time she is tired of him, but she won't leave him because she's scared of him. He has literally stalked her since day one. Always calling her every 10 minutes or so, following her, showing up where she is, etc.
I could go on about how much he's ruined her and our lives but I'll stop now.
I know it's not place to say who she can date or not, but when it's broken her down so much and when it directly effects the entire family and house, I can't help but be pissed that this has happened, and I feel such negative things for her ever since this happened, even though we've always been best friends. What can I do, say, etc.? Anything?
