thanks for all the insight. to clarify a couple things though... she is NOT cheating on her husband. as i said earlier, nothing physical has happened. about her marriage, it was shotgun wedding, she was 24 and pregnant, he was 44 and an asshole. she's now thirty and full of life and spunk, he is 50 and drinks too much, doesn't leave the couch and pays no attention to his wife except to verbally abuse her. she sticks around because of security, fear of how a divorve will affect her kid (she's got a crazy notion she might lose custody). her personality is very laid back and non-confrontational which is why i said she may need "a kick in the pants" to get her out her situation. anyway, thanks for all the advice and keep it coming.
