My brother is the male version of a battered woman.... he just keeps wishing and hoping she will change.She beats him, rings the police claiming hes hurt her and then hes made to leave his house. we tried to get him to divorce her and he did go to a solicitor who gave him bad advice, told him he would have to give her 1/2 the house after less than a year of marriage - so he didnt. the longer the marriage goes on the longer he is likely to have to but he wont listen.
Meanwhile she empties his bank account to pay for 'her sick mothers treatment' in malaysia along with various other nasty things such as telling me his supposed sexual preferences and that he got an STD , neither of which i believe but even if I did they are nothing to do with me and wouldnt stop me wanting to know him ( which I think was her intention)
I believe she told my father what she 'did for a job' hoping he would be repulsed and refuse to speak to my brother any more.
I dont hate many people but I would be rather pleased if she had some sort of accident while crossing the road or something
shes leaving for 'home' in a few days supposedly for up to 4 months. I just wish there was something I could do. I even tried ringing the police and the immigration people and writing in with my suspicions but nothing was done
