hello princelierocks, I've been into a 7 years relationship for some reasons we decided to end it up I was happy with him until the day we need to be part away I can say it was painful he was been with me for 7 years and he was my bestfriend then but despite of that I am happy being single Life must go on I take it as an ordinary days of my life I do my daily routine I cried for a days and then I fixed myself it is almost the same the difference is no one is there for me who will say I LOVE YOU, I MISS YOU, YOU ARE THE MOST WONDERFUL THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME ETC. but I am free I can do everything without thinking that someone is waiting for me blah blah blah!. Try to cheer your friend happy mylotting

Hie it is indeed a painful life you have went through being 7 years in relationship and then departing it is just so not worthy but anyways the most beautiful part is that you have moved on despite the love and affection i must say yo are really a strong person it needs lot of tolerance and patient to do such things anyways great job.. thanks for the suggestion and all the best for your mate in the future.

as we all says you need to be there always, but base on my opinion and experience you need to give your friend "TIME" a lot of it. Time to think and get over this his/her self. Your friend need to accept things first and get ready to move on.Even though you are there and helping him/her if your friend dont want to get over this his/her self then this wont end and will continue for years or forever. after your friend accepted the truth that its already over then that time your help is a must.Moving on is hard but with self acceptance and friends by your side will make it a little bit easy. the best way for me i dont know to others but for me what i did after accepting the truth is doing the things that me and my girlfriend used to do alot. going to this restaurant and eat alone, watching movies alone, going to gym and so on. the truth is it really really hurt a lot as in a lot to the point that i think i cant do this any more but then as my surprise it helps a lot really.then i get used to it. Tell your friend it really hurts but in life everything happens for a reason a good reason. last suggestion that i can make is PRAY a lot.even though im not religious but praying helps. Good luck to you and your friend.

It sure would be hard for your friend but i think what you can do is always be there for her. I an sure she would need you now more than ever. You can help help her feel that she is loved and that you as her friend would always be there with her as she heals her wound.

What you said is exactly right but living with her and seeing her becoming other's dream girl will hurt him a lot in this state how can he control his emotions and give her support...??

I am married before and now we are separated with my husband. Yes, it is not easy. And it is very painful if the reason is because there is another party. But life must go on no matter what. Cry and cry until one day you will be tired of crying. And pray for strength on the days of pains.

It's sad to move back in life, especially back to single again after ending a relationship. We are used to having each other by our side, for support, love and someone to talk to. When everything is gone, somehow we tend to feel lost, lonely. That's the time friends like u, should be there for him. U can't replace his gf, but u are there to share his experience. Time will teach him when to move on.

These type of situations happens i everybody's life. You need to support your friend by devoting time and try to behave as usual as if nothing has happened. You have to motivate your friend to move on. If the relationship has to go further that your friend will patch up later, but for now he should move on.

that must be very hard for your friend. their relationship lasted for 5 years already and we can say it has a sturdy foundation that'[s why it lasted that long... but if things really cant work out anymore then just let it go. try to heal in the good way as fast as possible, and healing means to make all wounds close, and not by simply forgetting the pain. live life to the fullest, since we only dont one chance to live. just stay positive all the time, even though your friend treasured that relationship so much always know that God has a reason for all happenings. :)
