Helping a friend in the bad times.  email this discussion to a friend?

How much do you consider yourself a "good friend" do you have limits to your friendship? Today one of my best friends called me up because she was very depressed. So, I told her to come over and we'll talk. Yesterday she was here too, and was here also on Thursday. We've been talking endlessly about the problems she is going through on her relationship, or right now, "oficially over" relationship. She just cries, and tells me how she feels and how bad the world looks riht now. I listen and interact. Tonight we told weird stories and played chinese checkers for a while. Then listen to music and then talked more... She left feeling better with the idea of writing a letter to her partner. After 3 nights in a row of her coming here, I still told her to call me tomorrow and we'll do something together. How fas have you gone for a friend?? I am willing to repeat the same thing until she feels better.

Your friend is very lucky to have a friends like you. It is that way between my best friend and I wre both are always there for each other through think and thin. I have other friends who will listen to your problems but you can feel they are not really listening their minds are on something else.

you are indeed a true friend to her, she is so lucky she found a treasure like you.

i guess the farthest thing i did to help a friend was to adopt her and her sisters for about a week or two when she had no home to stay at,no family to stay with and no money to spend. What happened was she was thrown out of their house (she was living with in her aunt's house with her cousin's husband and kids) by her cousin's husband because they just can't get along with each other.

i offered her our home because i love her dearly and i dont want bad things to happen to her and her sisters.

That is really what a friend should do when someone is in need, and you are able to help! You'll get it back some day and you'll be happy you helped her when she needed it most.

I have not gone quite that far. Then again I haven't had the oppotunity. That is sweet of you to listen to her and let her into your world for a few days. It sounds like the sooner she gives up this relationship, the better she will feel. If I could, I would do something similar for a good friend. She is lucky to you have as a trusted friend and confidant.
