Just move on !!!! I am amazed at how people give that advise to women with problems as if it is just an easy obvious solution which dumb women are not able to take. Do you think she might not have considered taking the decision herself? Duh huh !!!! Why don't you just move on --- this statement puts all the onus on the woman and take away the focus and blame from the man. It takes a lot of strength for a woman to break away from an abusive situation like this. Someone should be there by her side to help her come out of it. I have helped women in abusive situation and I know 'moving on' this advice is just not the solution.
Barq : I am not sure what you are talking about. I am talking about a female colleague not a male colleague.
