my friend and her partner has been together since they were in highschool. their relationship lasted for almost 10 years and seems to be perfect as we can see it. they already planned to get married and they have always been prepared for the future together.
one time my friend went to our house crying, she told me that her boyfriend is getting married in a haste because he was caught in a bed with another woman. she's crying and my heart almost break to see her that way.
what should i do to console her, i mean afterall these years, i cant find the right words to say to make her feel ok. help please.

its not easy to heal a broken heart, you just have to be a shoulder she can cry on.

I don't think there is much you can say.
Just be a good listener and a shoulder to cry on and let her come to terms with it and support her in the decisions she decides to make.
I had a friend who split with her partner and this is all I could do. Its not very often that people just listen, but as a good friend to her this is the best thing I could do.
I hope your friend can mend her broken heart, this must be so horrible for her!

There is really not much you can say to her. I'll bet she is in extreme heartache and no words would do magic on her. But as a friend, you can be very supportive to her, and take her out to do something fun together with her (even she doesn't have the mood to). Just occupy her time and be there for her so that she knows she is not alone and there won't be too much time for her to sit there and think back the past. Heartache is sad and painful but time will heal it. All it needs are supportive friends and time. I am sure she will do ok. Good luck to her.

with acceptance and forgiveness comes healing. but let your friend for a time mourn for the loss. help her realize the fact that she has to move on without this guy and if she's ready, forgive. she'll heal if she allows herself be.

I am very sad to hear this. Truly its so bad and so difficult for your friend. I don't know if her boyfriend is in love with the other girl or if it was just a momentary attraction. Sometimes men can love one girl with his whole heart and with real commitment and at the same time have momentary physical relationship with other girls. I suggest that she check with her boyfriend if he sincerely love her or the other girl and then make a final decision.
