And I could tell it was not myfriend's fault.Their were distance love and my friend was loyal to her bf.She said she paid soooo much in their relationship and didn't want to end.She felt she was cheated and it was the biggest humiliating thing in her life by now.I try to comfort her,I said u should get over it and let it go,find another better man.But today I find she still crying and told me she want to leave this city and back home.I said don't do wrong on a impulse bcz she has to finish her graduate college study. So my dear friends ,If u were me,what would do to comfort her.PLZ,I need ur help.

Hello, Feeling very bad about your friend. May all set well for her. Just explain her life never stops for any one. It keep moving. Some other persone will come who will love her more that her BF. God gives you what you want, because GOD Loves you!!!! God say you 'NO' for what you want, because GOD loves you more and planning something better that what you want. God say you "WAIT' for what you want, because GOD Loves you the most and planning the best for you. So you better respect the time, and the all the happenings that are happening. Keep your cool. Never think bad about his behavior, as you have lost the one who didn't love you, but he surly lost the one who truly love him. Good bless her, I wish the best come to her soon!!!!!!!!!!

Well the thing is there is really no instant remedy to this kind of a problem. Feeling broken hearted will be very painful for the victim and she has to find her strenght back with your help. I think you need to make things feel that things are over now and she has to move on with her life. Do not push her though in trying to move on. Just be on her side and be as patient as you can be with her. It will be hard and long before things would be back to normal. If she has to go hom and recover from it then so be it to relieve her opf the pain she is carrying. But continue to convince her to finish studies as there are many other opportunities that will come her way. Just be patient with the things happening with her.

Hi,Rsa,I agree wiht u ,it take time to get over the heart break.But I don't think it is resonable to back home,bcz in my eyes such guy doesn't worth ruining my friend's study or career.In addition,ex bf works near my friend's home,then it would be harder to forget her ex and easier to involve in sadness of missing when seeing the familar scene.I think back home will make things even worse.Thx for ur stoping by.Good luck.

Well if that is the case then you have to convince her not to go home where his BF is much near her. If that is her reason why she is coming home then she should not come home the more. But, I think if she intends to come home to be with family to console with her then I think that could also help her to be out of her heart break then so be it.

hi let her cry , let the thing or phase out of her system .. tell her to cry all she wants for the next 3 days .. after that collect all the things in the room that reminds her of him , ask her to burn them n flush it in the toilet .. after that if she still want to cry .. let her cry some more .. most times they should not as they should feel releved .. next ask her if she wants back with him or she ants to forget him .. if bck with him ask her to win him over, make him jealous show him what he lost ~ give almost the same answer to the 2nd choice .. whicever answer she chooses, is just buying time to build her confidence and grow up .. she will forget him in no time , just go along with this , advise her to change haistyle to look better than "that girl" cheers

Hi sanjana,In fact what I can do now is let her cry,I told her cry and let the tear wash the sadness away.She told me she couldn't sleep when she thought of it.I tried to convience her do something else and don't sitting,reminiscing,crying bcz these won't help only making her stay in painful situation.THx for u suggestion,we r the same,I hope my friend back someday and show that guy what a good girl he desert.Thx for ur opinion.Have a nice day.

When we lose someone in our life, we usually have a hard time accepting it, and that is going to be the most difficult process. Your friend right now needs to find a way to divert her attention and emotion into something else. Make her feel that she have not lost everything though she might think that she lost everything she have. Make her realize that there is always a reason why things happen. And his boyfriend giving her up like that means that he doesnt love her and why would she waste her time for something like that. If the guy wasnt so honest enough to tell her that and continued the relationship even he doesnt love her anymore she would still not be happy. And she have to ba thankful that it ended soon before she suffers the consequences of being into a relationship without love anymore. At least she can now concentrate more on acceptance and also in looking for something else that will make her happy. The guy is not worthy enough,because of course she doesnt love her, what would make him worthy of her time then.? It's a waste of time.

So sorry to hear her story. Your friend presumably love her ex bf so much, but maybe she does not understand the meaning of true love, that means giving, not winning. When they were in love, she already has enjoiyed sweeet time. That means she already gotten what she want in this relationship. That`s enough. Pls tell her,"Keep the most memories about this relationship in mind, then go futher to find another start." In addition, love is not all there is in living. She still have friends, parents,and other people who love her. So for those men, do not give up the right to find happiness with Mr Right. Hope your friend will go out of the shadow asap.

Yep,molly,keep the best memories and let the worst go.This is the best ending of a relationship I think.But it is hard for my friend to act so mature now,ending a 5-6 years relationship and a guy she thought she would marry. U r right,love is just a part of life,don't let it occupy ur whole life.I hope my friend can be ok soon too.Thx for ur kindness.Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

Hi, longsdogin. All you can do is be there for her as an genuine friend would be. You will need to continue to try to talk to her and help her stay here. I hope that she will listen to you. Right now she is very upset over her boyfriend leaving her and she is angry. I can understand that. Soon as she gets over him then she will come to her senses so that she will make the best decision that is best for her. Please pray for her. She needs all of the support that she can get from you as her friend. Take care.

This is really sensitive thing to be talked. It's difficult when thing comes to feeling, especially, the fragile one. But according to my 22 almost 23 years olds, I had experienced breaking up with someone whether she broke me up or I broke her up or even agree to break up the relationship. When people can't get along in some particular relationships then they must must another way. It can't be forced. Who doesn't like happy ending? And if you taking the paying things soooooo much for love as an issue then I'd like to ask, is it wrong to give up many things for the one you love? But if it's too much then it can be very precious lesson, not to be repeated. Anyway isn't it good that she found out that the guy wasn't good enough to deserve her before they get marry in the future? If they found out that late then what? staying seperate, divorcement? What you can do to comfort her is to listen to her but do not put emotion so much together with her. Why? one, she might get mad at you for blaming her beloved. Or Two, she might be happy for what you do but just for now,,but if one day they get back together again, you will not have a place to stand by her. Just keep staying beside as a crying shoulder, sometimes, the best way to comfort is just to be silent beside her.

For me she must pray to Jehovah GOD and ask him that he examine her heart so that her feelings would cured and she gave her emotion not to ruin her life.

Hi, I dont feel sorry for ur friend. coz she is really lucky that she came to know about a traitor in life and thank god he is parting the ways himself so ur friend is safe. Tell her that why she needs to worry if someone doesnt value ur friend and her feeling? why to waste time in feeling for her? Just accept that he is gng and ask her to find a good guy in her life again. I am sure she gets there!!!

i feel very sorry for your friend. you have done everything well. she must be lucky to have you as her friend. but the thing is she can understand nothing in her situation.let her cry until she feels comfortable and later try to say what you were trying to say. mainly say here that relationship should exist between two ends. and say that he is unlucky to miss her and whats the need for her to cry for such a person who doesnt care for her or love her. and let her know that career is much more important than anything else and make her think in the right way and make her out of that depression. ofcourse may be she will not understand what you say now but once she is cool she will recollect your words fro sure and hope she will become normal. good kuck mate

i am sure after a week, she will get stronger. after a month, she will laugh at herself for being crazy. if she cried in front of you , that mean she can get over it . she just need to talk, to find something to do . if you are her good friend. take her out with a few other girls. don't talk about bf , just a good relastionship between girls.

I am honestly not sure what I can say that many before me have not said, but I understand exactly where this girl is coming from as I have gone through the same thing, the only difference is I didn't have someone who cared enough for me to help me make it through. She is going through a rough time where it feels like her entire world is falling apart from beneath her. She won't have an appetite, or it will swell. She'll cry all the time, so much it'll feel like she never had before. She will not be able to sleep, at least not well, and if she does manage to fall into a dreamless, or pleasant state, when she wakes up, she'll feel as though she wants to sleep forever. She wants to escape the pain by any means necessary. Perhaps you cannot feel what she feels, but the important thing is you're there. You care enough to try and help her through this tough ordeal, that you're willing to go the length of time it takes her to 'try' to get 'over' this guy. Falling in love is a risky thing, and like me, it appears as though she put herself completely into this relationship. Sometimes people call in love, and sometimes others fall into a security, and once they've reached the point there is nothing left for them. All that matters at the moment, is you TRY. Is that you CARE. And that you support her in the ways she cannot support herself. At least, that's what I would have wanted...

some people react to rejection in different ways. there is no 'quick fix' or an instant remedy for heartbreak. only time will heal her heart. you are a good friend to try and comfort her in this time, and should continue to be there for her. she's going to have to untimately have to figure out whats best for her and how to move on, but it may take some time. hth!

I have experienced that kind of relationship and It's hard to move on at first because I love my ex so much and we are close though I haven't meet him n person. But I did my best to move on and forgot him..All I did is to do the things that I wasn't able to do when I still have him. You can tell your friend the same as what I did. She should accept the fact that her boyfriend like someone else so that she can focus on her study. You should not let her remind of her boyfriend and make her happy all the time.. Support is what she needs in order for her to move on. I hope and pray that she can move on easily.
