Okay, I know there've been a lot of stuff about getting advice for relationships, but this is for helping my brother before he reaches the point of no return. My brother is currently in a dead-end relationship with a girl that's pretty much a physical, emotional, and financial cancer, and she and her family have pretty much brainwashed him into staying with her lest he remains alone for the rest of his life. And this girl's father is very negative, and he seems to have rubbed off on my brother since he's now all the time cursing at others and generally being an unpleasant person to be around.
He was never like this. In fact before this girl, he was a happy-go-lucky guy with a bright future and many friends. Now all of his friends have turned away from him and the only people he ever talks to and has a pleasant conversation with are her and her family. I view her as a cancer because she doesn't do anything to advance her own career. She currently works in a sandwich shop and has the ever growing threat of student loan bills come in that she needs to pay, but won't have the money for. Therefore she wants to try and syphon the money off of my brother, and he can't afford them either with the job he currently has. And now her mother is pushing for them to get married for some reason and even has all of the starting furniture purchased and everything.
I'm very worried that my brother is going to make a mistake that he's never going to recover from if he marries this girl, and his constant angry state isn't very good for his health, despite him being overweight and already in poor health. I don't want my brother making the same costly mistakes that his girlfriend's parents have made, but he won't listen to anything that anyone else says in regards to this situation.
Any help or suggestions you guys can think of that can help my brother get rid of this metaphorical cancer would be wonderful.
