My friend is dumping her boyfriend, but she's really upset.  What do I tell her?

If she really is upset then she is in love with him and she should get back to him. If you are a good friend to your friend then help your friend to get her love back.

Hi Tiera,   well it sounds like this guy is a real jerk. Not trying to be mean or anything just going by everything you said.  Now, as far as your friend goes I believe that you should stick to your guns and be there for her.  If you havent done so already,  I think you should tell her all about this guy and just prepare her for what you might think will happen. Don't try to make her break up with him per say,  but just let her know that you are telling her these things because she is your friend and you dont want to see her hurt.  Thats really all you can do at this point.  Sometimes in life in order for someone realize what they get themselves into they have to learn the hard way.  The only thing you can do is just assure her that you will be there for her no matter what.  She will appreciate you more down the road when she realizes she was wrong and you were right.  Stick to you guns hun, and dont abandon your friend because this is when she is gonna need you the most.  Good luck with everything...........

mind our own business. let them sort out their own life. my friend's boyfriend was unfaithful as well and we didn't tell her but she did discover and it's for her to deal with it cause it's her relationship, as friends we can only lend an listening ear and be with her if she needs too. we are all adults.

You people are horrible and your friend is a hoe. She should break up w/him and you should suggest it. She better stick to they guy that impregnated her! They just need to break up and if I were you (luckily am no) I would not get w/that guy because if he cheats on your friend, he'll cheat on you!

She may be guilty that she had hung out with you so much even before she had been dumped.  The girl may also think that her boyfriend dumped her because she had been so close with you.  I don't think you should push anything or talk to her right away about it.  Give her time and if she ever needs to talk, imply that you will always be there for her.  That's most important and casually smile or say hello to her when you see her around.  You shouldn't do anything drastic or you will confuse and scare her away.  Good luck on this, I know relationships are hard!

Only your friend can make a decision for herself... Offer a sympathetic ear & offer support when the time comes for them to split up.\nYou can only be there for her....\nIf she listened to you now & then felt it was a mistake she would blame you.\nBe the best a friend can be......offer friendship...she will need you badly when it all goes wrong

You want to be a good friend and I understand that but if I were in your shoes I would let it happen. If you make a big deal or say anything about it period shes going to wig and maybe end up dating the guy even longer just to spite you and that's just counter-productive. In my opinion she made a bad decision dating one of her friends X's but since that's not the question it's neither here nor there. The point is, she knew how he was before she started dating him, she should have known better. I'm not trying to be cruel but people learn things best firsthand. Be supportive, hope for the best, Maybe your X has changed but be ready to console her and help her move on when he screws her over as well.

The best thing u can do is just be there for them.  Dont push it too much, let them know you are there to listen and wait for them to tell u how they feel.  It shows that u must be very close to them as they obviously trust you with their secret and are probably in shock about it themself still.\n\nMy ex-boyfriend had cancer and I know it can be a very very difficult time, not just for the person suffering but also for those around them and close to them.  Your friend is probably feeling a range of emotions at the moment and maybe just needs someone to confide in.  People can sometimes get very angry or very quiet when they find out something like this, so if your friend starts acting wierd, try to not to take it personally.\n\nI really feel for your friend because I know what a hard time it must be for them.  You also need to look after yourself too, its not easy news to hear and although u may not be experiencing it physically, u will prob feel just as emotionally upset and shocked.  The best advice i can give is just to be there to listen and keep their secret.  There is nothing that you can say that will change what has happened. Sometimes if u really want to help them and get them to talk, just talk about the facts of the illness (eg.what type of cancer/treatment/stage of progression etc.. )sometimes by the person talking about the facts, it helps them to come to terms with it themself and also brings out their feelings.  \n\nHope this helps you in some way

Respect your friend's wishes to make these changes for a while.  \nMaybe she is moving on and maturing in a new relationship.  \nYou are still her friend unless you choose not to be. Be there and show your true friendship and support, and let HER know you are waiting for her on "The other side".  All you can do is be a friend.  You cannot live your friend's live.  Good luck and find some new 'cool' friends if you are bored.  Don't let yourself be too closed in in your thinking; and broaden your friendship base, so that when one moves on, you have others to enjoy.\n\nYou can still like this person for who they are, not what they do or don't do.

all you need to do is tell her that boyfriends can break up with but friends are always there (even after their boyfriend dumps them)

Just put some distance between the two of you. If you can't forgive, at least don't throw it in your friend's face. That'll just keep the anger strong and even make it grow.\n\nTell her(him) that you're hurt, and that there's no room in your life for her(him) right now.

straight out with it, tell her what you think and feel, just tell her to leave her boyfriend, straight up with it, its better to know early than just waste your time.

Like it or not, your friend was the one who ditched you--her boyfriend didn't "take her away" from you.\n\nMy best friend (and roommate) did this to me over a year ago.  I confronted her about it, and she stopped...but there was tension between her boyfriend and me for the remainder of her relationship with him.\n\nI still have trust issues with her and am waiting for the day she finds someone new and drops me all over again.

there really isn't any GOOD time to dump anyone..\nit makes you feel bad and it makes them feel bad....\nit is time to do the dumping when you two can not longer sit down and calmly talk over any problems and work them out satisfactorily. and when you two even after talking still can't see eye to eye so to speak..sometimes people just grow away from each other..even though they may be OK as friends..they should be a couple any longer.\nso if and when you can not longer talk it out nicely..\nand when and if you do not feel that closeness anymore to the other person, even if the other person feels it for you..it is time to SAY BYE BYE..no hard feelings just bye..unless he hurt you then say bye idiot..and there are hard feelings..\nso think and be compassionate about it. do it with CLASS and STYLE....never stoop down to their level if they are acting ignorant....\nbut do it when you NEED to..do not drag it on and on..\njust do it..\nGood Luck\nand Gd Bless\nSMILE

you should let her know that you don't like being blown off for this boyfriend. you know that she really likes him, but that she should still be able to have time to spend with her friends. Also, tell her that you think this guy is not putting much into the relationship, and that you don't think that he is the right guy for her. then just let her react to what you said, whether it be good or bad. at least you got your opinion out there.
