    He thinks women should wait to be spoken to? Tell that to Theresa, Nicola and Angela et al!! What century is this idiot from? Or is he from another culture?

    Either way, bells are ringing so loud here that they would deafen Quasimodo!

    The writing style does seems familiar though....

    Dale is quite controlling.

    Dale sulks and objects and will sulk for many days.

    He doesnt like her to be so outgoing as he isnt. Even to the point of asking her if she'd been on the game! really insulting.

    He resents her learning and using a computer.

    he creates that she's watching catchup and she hasnt made him a cup of tea but when she does he leaves it to go cold, its like he demands her attention.

    When he doesnt stay over she can smell his cigar and find him spying though her window to see her on computer or tv

    thinks women should not speak first but wait to be spoken to

    he constantly festers over things such as she spoke to the milkman when he thinks she doesnt need to,

    then says he's observing her to 'test' her as to her behaviour and how a partner should act.

    If I have a night out or shopping trip with her he is contantly demanding she text him

    He bizzarely belittles sophies health issues though.

    Seriously? She needs a friend's advice to know what to do and her friend doesn't know what to say?

    Just where do either you or her think this relationship is going? :(

    Could you ask Sophie to have a look at this?

    It's a link to an abusive relationship website & may help her clarify what is & is not "reasonable".

    I really hope your user name isn't your real name given that you've plastered your friend's private information all over a public Internet forum.

    I was wondering if it's a pun of some sort? A bit like Cherry Garcia.
  • Thanks for replies. I have shown sophie. Its good to see advice from not just one source, or just from myself, like good to see it from several other points of view. She has to make up her mind and see. He is indeed from another culture, yes. second generation. Also I would agree with age gap too.


    If all the advice came from me then it wouldn't be as good as to see many views, but most coming up with same end result. So thank you for contributing.
