Input:  I am friends with both M27 and F26. And I am pretty close with them. With F26, not so much anymore. They have been dating since Sophomore year of high school and have known them since. They are engaged for about a year now and getting married in 3 months. 

She is very manipulative and my friend is heavily influenced by her philosophies. He has become a completely different person over time, and has expressed notions and opinions that are definitely not coming from him. 

If he wants to hang out with the guys, it’s her say and 90% of the time she says no. We are his closest friends and rarely see each other. Time spent is usually just catching up over dinner and is a very wholesome time together. 

The rare dinner happened where she showed up. She mentions that he is “way more talkative than usual”. A few weeks after, in an attempt to try to make our group closer with her, we attend her birthday and played board games.  Our friend is like a completely different person. He is clearly putting on a facade and wouldn’t make the jokes he would usually make or say things he usually says. He never laughs either.

Whenever I call, you can tell he’s with her when his voice is very quiet and inhibited and it’s always “I’ll call you back”. I even hear her raising her voice at him in the back sometimes. 

She got a job 1.5 hours away from the city and forced him to switch jobs close to her as well. After getting married she wants to buy a house in that area- very quiet small town. 

My friend works in trades and is having a change of heart. He wants to become an entrepeneur and stay in the big city. He doesnt want to live so far from friends and family and wants to pursue it. She completely hates the idea and does not support him. My opinion is that I know she is a very methodical person who goes according to plan. She probably thinks that it is risky and would want him to be safe and keep providing for her at a job he hates. 

The wedding is coming up and I really feel for him.  He’s one of the nicest guys in the world and he deserves so much better. I plan on taking him out for a beer and I’m just going to straight up tell him that he’s makjng the biggest mistake of his life by marrying her. AITA? 

 

going to tell one of my best friends he's making a mistake marrying his gf
