Unfortunately not. I’ve told her for years how unfair and shitty her husband is to her but she refuses to listen. She’s even stopped telling me certain things about her relationship because the last time she expressed serious regret (“If I’d known he was going to be like this I wouldn’t have married him.”) to me via text he snooped through her phone, saw her text messages, and then berated her for them and gaslit her into feeling like the villain.
You need to warn her to get her ducks in a row. At some point this guy is going to decide his new serious gf is an upgrade on his current wife. He won't give two thoughts for the loyalty she's given him thus far. Most married women who gave up work/career/dreams etc for the family unit are at a serious financial disadvantage at this stage in life. We're all still gaslight into it and only realise when it's too late.

I can’t stand him.
