I learned some disturbing info yesterday.

 

My aunt (75) had been dating a man (85) for a while. I always thought he was a great guy but he's huge: 6'5 to her 5'6; he's probably got at least 100 pounds on her.

 

According to her BFF, my aunt's BF is abusing her & hitting her. I have never seen any bruises & she isn't the type to put up with a man speaking impolitely to her, so I find it incredible that she's put up with physical abuse. The friend claims last summer the BF threw my aunt to the floor & broke her collar bone. The BFF did not personally witness this. My aunt told me she fell at the gym. My cousin said that the BF made some sort of a "get away from me" gesture as my aunt stepped into his space. Give the size difference, when the BF made contact with my aunt, she fell & got hurt. I don't want to call the contact a push because that is not what was described to me. It sounds more like an accident.

 

I'm going to keep my eyes open but what does everyone else think?

Trust your aunt. She's old enough to know better.
