This might seem depressing, but I make sure every young woman in my family [reads this] (http://www.amazon.com/How-Spot-Dangerous-Before-Involved/dp/0897934474).
As a chick who recalls being that age and on my own, I always wished people would get me stuff I wasn't able to spend money on, like a gift certificate to get my hair done professionally or a nice car coat.
Congratulations on recognizing that you need help and deserve better than that! I'm going though a very similar situation. After I was cheated on, I struggled with self-image and setting boundaries for myself. It's really easy to feel like you aren't good enough after someone cheats on you and can really mess with your head. One thing that has been helping is that i made a small goal every day of something that would make me proud of myself. It could be really small like: I will register to vote or I will drink more water throughout the day. At first it was difficult to think of positive things about my day. After a couple of weeks of this my outlook changed. I was feeling more gratitude than depression and I was slowly accomplishing things that were meaningful to me.
If you find reading helpful, there were a few groups that helped after i left an abusive relationship. I'm assuming you're a woman but if I'm incorrect, please disregard most of my list of book suggestions.
These books really helped me get on track with learning how stand up for myself and find the relationship I deserve:
1 The Nice Girl Syndrome this book is an interesting look at the gender dynamic and how society tells girls to be compliant and quiet instead teaching them to set of setting firm boundaries.
2. [How to Spot a Dangerous Man] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0897934474/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1475170298&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=how+you+spot+a+dangerous+a+man&dpPl=1&dpID=51qLu6M10CL&ref=plSrch) It certainly has an interesting title. This is not a man-hating book at all. It just shows what abusers, addicts or emotional predators look like and how to avoid them to find the good guys out there.
3.Boundaries This book is great for anyone. It helps you recognize your rights and teaches how to set boundaries in your life. Learning how to have this control was essential in my recovery.
Stay strong.

the workbook you can find on piratebay. probably the book itself on pdf in google
maybe print one out for her. or spend your time with her talking thru this. i feel like sometimes with these friends, they know you'll be there as a source of comfort where they want their boyfriend to be. and at least personally, using our hang time together to focus on this instead of consoling her (ie enabling/cushioning) this behavior has helped her make her own decision to drop his ass. but that's my specific case.
Listen to your gut, if things feel off there is a good reason for it.
This book isn't specific to BDSM but it does help a lot with recognizing red flags and avoiding bad people before you get involved with them.https://www.amazon.com/How-Spot-Dangerous-Before-Involved/dp/0897934474

Some other warning signs would be getting too sexual too quickly, no discussion of boundaries, likes, dislikes, limits etc. Automatic assumption of dominance/ownership without allowing time for the relationship to progress organically. Or just generally being a jerk are also good signs that you should run away fast.
