Bulimia is a very serious problem. Don't let her kid you or herself on that one. I'd suggest getting her to a doctor or some kind of counselor to help her, but if she doesn't think it's a problem, she'll be very resistant. And why hasn't her dentist said anything of this? Does she even have one? I'd find out about that because her dentist would be one of the first people to notice this problem. Bulimics are easily found out by dentists because when you throw up often, the acids from your stomach strip the enamel right off your teeth. You're a kind person to reach out and help this woman you've only just begun to date. I hope she appreciates you and that she'll listen to you when you ask her to get help for her problem. Good luck.

The best thing for her is to see a professional about her disease. However, until she can admit to herself that she has a problem, there's not much you can do.
