my best friend has been in a tumultuous relationship with this guy for over 5 years now. To elaborate a bit more…he verbally abuses her, cheats on her (with people we know) and they break up about every few months, then get back together and are insanely "in love", then break up…it's just a crazy cycle. I have always been her biggest supporter up until the last year where I finally had enough of riding this merry go round with her. So I spoke up and said if this is what you want for your life then I don't want to hear about it or be around it any longer. It built a lot of tension between us, but she finally broke up with him (again) about 4 months ago and really convinced me that it was over. Going on and on about how she's totally ok now and dating ect. That she realizes how messed he and the relationship was…well I've recently come to find out that she has been playing me for a fool. Because they have been back together on the sly. Now before everyone goes on to tell me this is her life and it has nothing to do with me…this is still one of my closest friends since we were little kids that I trust and want the best for. He's abusive and she's addicted to it. It's extremely hard for me to keep my mouth shut about the fact that she's been lying to me and the fact that she would take him back…once again. At this point I really don't know what to do. Do I just completely distance myself until she comes to her senses? Do I have yet again the conversation we've had about 100 times now? I feel really lost in this situation and could use another perspective!! Thanks.

For God sake have a pity on yourself. Why should you spend your time, fray your nerves and become their enemy?
It seems they like the way they live. Their every reunification is like a flash in the darkness after months of separation. The excitement they experience at these moments covers all the bad flaws.
Yes, he is a real jerk, but she loves him. She would die of boring if she lives with someone more favorable.
Lots of families live the life like a constant struggle. And you can't change their nature.
Just calm down and focus on your own.
