All you can do is be supportive of her, lightly discuss your feelings with her and if she gets defensive about it, back off. Let her know that you are her friend and will be there for her no matter what and remind her of what a great and wonderful person that she is and why you value her as a friend.
If she is in an abusive relationship she is used to being put down and your positive reinforcement can bring her back up. Only when and if she is ready, will she accept that she is in an abusive relationship.

Do what you can to remind her how good her life is apart from him -- not necessarily by saying, "you're life would be better without him." But tell her that if she ever needs you, you are there for her. She is going to be less likely to leave if she feels that she needs him and if her self esteem is low. She needs to know that she not only can survive without him, but also, that she can be happy on her own and by being strong and independent, she will find someone who will treat her with the respect she deserves. Build her up if you can, but remember, her actions are her responsibility! You are a good friend.

Tell her to find another guy who will treat her well. It will only get worse. He will keep pushing the boundaries until she breaks or he kills her. All the while laughing at her and mocking her. Get her out while you still can. Let her read this. And all of the other responses here.
Or dump her and save yourself. Stupid people are beyond help anyway!
I hope she is not!

Whats the matter with that? Most women have no interest in a guy that treats them right. They like the guys that treat them like garbage.

You gotta lay it on her and tell her that you're her bff and you really think she can do better. But don't give her too much pressure, and don't sweat her about it...unfortunately people only learn by going through it (most of the time)

Talk her into breaking up with him but first make sure that she feels that he isn't treating her right or your wasting your time

Is he abusive? domineering? if he is these then you need to give her real support and a good listening ear. But at the end of the day it is up to her to stop seeing him not yours.
If he is just being a tw*t she will soon see it for herself

If your boyfriend(do you have one?) has any nice friends that are available, introduce them to your best friend and maybe something good will happen.Also , if her parents like you , you would be doing her a big favor to let them know and maybe they could intervene.

Talk to her about it, she probably just needs someone to be there for her right now. Let her know that you'll always be there for her.
