My cousin is 15 years old and she has this boyfriend. He acts like he likes her, but he really bosses her around. He made her quit her job, and I think he's pressuring her to do things she doesn't like. She claims they love each other, and that they will get married. He's changed her, both inside and out. He's trying to make her the girl he likes, and it scares me.
I'm scared for her. I don't think I can talk to anyone about this. Could someone give me some advice?
All you can do is alert her parents. It is their job to do intervene, not yours. Don't feel you are snitching by talking to them - you would be doing the right thing if you are legitimately worried.
Have you tried to talk to her directly about this? If not, then maybe you could let her know that you are concerned about this, and since she is only 15, maybe her parents need to be aware of what is going on as well, so they can keep a closer eye on this situation.

agreed alot of the time the parent have no clue whats really going on so if the op is concerned then that is the best route to take and let them decide.
also tell you cousin to stop worring about dating and focus on school and getting into a decent college before she thinks about getting married also they are 15 and everyone at 15 thinks they will marry their high school sweetheart and it rarely works out.
If you cannot get her to listen to you and if you cannot talk to your aunt and uncle, then contact the school guidance counsellor or another trusted friend. I'm sure if you have noticed a change in her, then others have too - but they may not see the cause.
It's really great that you care about her and are willing to put yourself out to help her. She's lucky to have a friend in her cousin.

She is young and confused...she needs counseling shes is confusing love with abuse
She needs to learn the difference
Talk to a trusted person
she is in a abusive relationship her and her boyfriend both need counseling
they are young kids who dont know the meaning of a relationship
Is he about the same age? If he's a bit older that's another important factor to consider because kids that age are going through a lot of turmoil and it also could present legal issues once he turns 18. I would talk to your cousin first and if that doesn't work I'd talk to her parents if you're really sure there's a problem that needs to be dealt with.
