5 Tips to Helping a Friend in a Harmful Relationship

It hurts to see someone you care about struggling in a relationship that seems to take away their joy and happiness. It is natural to want to look for ways of to help. Sadly, your friend may not be ready to listen to you. Worse still, it may be difficult for you to determine whether you’ll regret trying to solve the issue as your words may deepen the wounds they already have.

On the other hand, some people may appear happy and bright on the outside when they’re suffering from the effects of a harmful relationship in a real sense. If you realize that your close friend has this issue, then it’s possible to assist them. Here are some tips you need to help someone who is in a pestilent relationship.

1. Listen
Friends can go far if they love listening to one another. As your friend talks, support him or her and do not apply any pressure. Aggression is one of the worst things because it can push away your pal. When someone is heartbroken, what they need most is a person who can listen to them.

2. Air Your Concerns
One of the things that make your friend’s unhealthy relationship is when you lean on either extreme side, become silent on them, or strongly advise them to end the affair. The way to win the fight is to stay neutral. This is because your pal may be in self-doubt, making it difficult for them to see things clearly.
Airing your concerns is very important, especially when you know how to spot domestic violence. Speak up if you’re suspecting that your friend is a victim of abuse. Don’t hesitate and feel that you might be wrong or that your pal may not want to disclose their secrets. Your concern could let the person feel you care about them. You may even save a life!

3. Share Your Own Story
If you’ve ever been in a harmful relationship before, then you have a very powerful weapon to help your friend. Talk about your own toxic love story so as to identify with the person who is currently suffering. However, do not share in a way to condemn your friend. Be as gentle as possible.

4. Say What You Think Honestly
One of the most important ways of helping your friend who is in a harmful relationship is by being direct and honest with the person. Tell them just what they need, not what their ears are itching to hear. Your pal may value your take on the matter more seriously if they feel that you are honest with them. However, maintain a gentle attitude while talking.

5. Avoid Judging and Criticizing
There are chances that your friend is already processing the problem to find a lasting solution. Therefore, do not begin judging or criticizing them straightaway. It’s always wise to go with an open mind and hear what your pal has to say about the issue before making a comment.
Conclusion
Since relationships are very complex, it’s always wise to be careful when helping a friend who is in a toxic one. Otherwise, you may end up hurting your pal or making the harmful affair even more awful. Be extra sensitive.

3 French Toast Recipes You Should Try

You love french toast? First time to hear about it? Wag kang mag alala, you are not alone. Is it a FRENCH food gaya ng french fries? They call it lost bread in Europe. Ito yung mga tinapay na wala ng buhay kaya binigyan ng panibagong kulay. Ano daw? Basically, yung tinapay na malapit na amagin, lalagyan ng gatas at itlog atsaka ipiprito. What’s the best French Toast recipe? MADAMI! But I am going to share just 3 🙂

Let’s start with the basic French Toast but we are going to use condensed milk instead of plain milk:

a pack condensed milk (ito yung naka box na Alasaka ha)
3-4 pcs egg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
isang kurot na asin (yung pino ha)

Mix all ingredients then soak the bread quickly. Yung mabilis pa sa sweldo mong hindi man lang uminit sa palad mo ha. Fry this and eat! Or pede mo i freezer pag ka prito mo then iinit sa oven. Kung naka score ka sa Gardenia ng buy 1 take 1 nila, ito ang gawin mo.

Ayaw na ng basic? Dito naman tayo sa sushal na French Tiast recipe from The Peach Kitchen, ang pinaka magaling kumuha ng food photos na food blogger.

Ingredients

2 eggs
4 tbsp milk
¼ tsp cinnamon
⅛ tsp nutmeg
4 slices bread, cut into 1-inch thick strips (I used the raisin loaf that’s shaped like a baguette bought at French Baker)
1 cup crushed Corn Flakes
2 tbsp unsalted butter
Maple syrup, for dippings

How to cook Corn Flakes-Crusted French Toast Sticks:

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Put crushed corn flakes in a plate for dredging.
In a large bowl, whisk together, eggs, milk, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Working one at a time, dip the bread strips into the egg mixture, then dredge in the crushed Corn Flakes, pressing to coat.
Add the bread strips to the skillet, 3-4 at a time, and cook until evenly golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
Serve immediately with maple syrup.

O this one naman it includes BAKING!! Here’s a French Toast recipe from At Home With Mrs C.

Ingredients

5 cups torn up bread
2 cups whole milk
5 eggs
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tbsp vanilla
For The Topping
1 stick butter
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease the bottom and sides of a 9×9″ glass baking pan with butter or cooking spray. Arrange the torn bread pieces in the pan.
In a bowl, make a custard by whisking together the milk, eggs, sugars and vanilla.
Pour custard over the bread, making sure that each piece is moistened. Refrigerate and allow to soak. You can actually prepare ahead up to this point and let the casserole soak overnight.
Prepare The Topping
- Combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
- Mash cold butter into the dry ingredients using a fork to form pebbles.
- Sprinkle the topping over the soaked bread.
Bake Uncovered For
- 30-35 minutes if you want a soft and squishy consistency, 40-45 minutes if you want your French toast to be more firm.
