She was a little harsh. When I told her what happened and her first reply was "leave him" (this was through text messaging by the way, she wouldn't answer her phone for some reason) and I tried to explain a little more, whatever I said to her seemed to go through one ear and out of the other. She never commented on any specific thing I said, I'm not sure if she even read it, she just talked about the worst case scenarios that I could face and that was it.
