I have posted here before, sorry for bothering the community again, but I've got a new issue. Basically, I have a friend who I used to be very close to and just recentl reconnected with. They have a very controlling partner who doesnt let them spend time with their friends. Anyways, I'm supposed to be hanging out with my friend without their partner knowing, but I'm really scared about several things. Firstly, what if I lose them again because of their partner preventing them from seeing me; how can I prevent that from happening? Secondly, I want to be this persons closest friend like I used to be; how can I do that/how can I go about indicating this in a healthy way (they have said that they want to be close again)? How can I help the person with their relationship? Does it sound like they care about me? Lastly, how do I express that I care about the person in a healthy way? Thanks in advance. (Sorry, just having a lot of doubts right now and no one to talk to about it)
