If you really need a new phone then do it , if you ' re on a budget then consider the Honor 8 instead . <| sep |> Hello 52 ndsurvivor , Sorry for the long post . English is not my first language so please don ' t be harsh about my grammar . Growing up I had a similar story , so I feel deeply for your girlfriend . First off , your focus here should be your girlfriend , not her dad . My case is a little bit different because I confronted my dad when I was 14 and he had no choice but to stop , however , I didn ' t go to the police because putting my dad in jail would have killed my beloved grandmother . I also try to take my life several times before I was 14 but didn ' t succeed so I gave up on that one . As you can see even when I was being abused I was still acting very unselfish . I did move out of town and didn ' t saw or speak with my dad for a period seven years . I also had a huge distrust issues among other things . I then met my now Fianc and I tell you , hats off to him . Because of him , we are in a healthy relationship . He has always been so understanding and compassioned . He has always there for me even when I pushed him away and was messup from my past . I always used to ask him why he even bothers and asked him to leave me but he never did , and today I am thankful that he didn ' t because he is truly the most wonderful guy I have ever met . I guess my point is respect her wishes , love her , understand her , show her that she can trust you , because if she opened up to you that means you mean the world to her . I know in my case he has been the only person I had ever told . I totally understand that she doesn ' t want her in jail . Is very hard the guy that is ripping you , yet he is your dad . I didn ' t give a crap about my dad but I did about my grandparents so it would have broken my heart to see them suffer . You have to decide whom and which is more important to you . I believe everything in life happens for a reason , you were sent on her way for a reason so be there for her without judging . If you truly love her and respect her I would say to just move her in and for her to avoid any contact with her dad . I would also suggest therapy . Yes , besides my fiance support that ' s what did it for me . My fianc suggests it but I was against it because I didn ' t believe in such thing in the past . However , after a year of torment and my fianc begging me to do so I tried it and OMG with only three sessions it was unbelievable ! See the problem was that I used to blame myself for my dad abusing me . I always used to think that it was my fault . So the therapy and he are the only ones well now you do too that knows about this . You are going to see a lot of response here , however , none of us can tell you what to do . Please before you take any decision think of HER not what anyone post in here . She has already been through a lot of her life and unless someone has walked in her shoes they won ' t understand . Also , keep in mind that we all have our own way of dealing with things , so someone else made feel deferent than her in this situation . If you truly love her , you will know what to do and would not act selfishly in this situation . Perhaps , you can take a different approach like , letting him know that YOU know and that he ever tries to contact her you will report him to the police . If you feel the need to tell someone yu should also see a therapist I know my fiance did a few times because It was also hard on him to know this things . I don ' t know . I hope this help !
