Reader dislikes friend’s partner
DEAR HARRIETTE: One of my closest friends has been in an off-and-on relationship with someone I don’t think is the best for them. I do not often give my opinion on my friends’ partners, as it is not my place to critique their relationships, but I have seen this person make my friend feel awful on one too many occasions for me to be OK with their partnership. My friend has spent years working on their emotional development, but this relationship often leaves them feeling like they haven’t done enough. I want to tell them to call this quits for good; however, I do not want to overstep my place as a friend. How do I tell my friend to get out without seeming judgmental or disapproving? — Leave Him DEAR LEAVE HIM:
