Question Posted Tuesday September 28 2004, 3:30 am
I have a friend who recently broke up with her boyfriend. They decided to just remain friends. She is troubled because he's everything that she could possibly want in a future husband and he feels the same way about her in viewing her as the perfect wife but for someone reason feels god doesn't want them to be together right now. She is trying everything to show her love to him? What should she do? She feels a lot of hurt and is heartbroken over this? She's willing to do a lot to have him?
Neither person should have to change their beliefs, and hard as it may be, the best advice I can give you is to be there for your friend while she gets over this guy. Getting dumped is never easy, but it happens for a reason.
What she pictures as being 'perfect husband material' now will change a lot as she ages; hopefully she can remember this relationship as a sweet experience, but she'll need to move on with her life.
She might need more closure - why doesn't she ask this guy about his beliefs and why God doesn't want them to be together? Is God actually God, or an excuse for this guy? If your friend has some answers, she'll be able to see their complications and differences and move on.

Anyways, She feels that God has broke them apart. I don't understand your question, but what I think you should do is let the situation be. If she believes strongly in her religion, then she'll know that if God wants her and her boyfriend together, then they will be.

If they broke apart, it was for a reason. But if they stay good friends, and stay close, the spark may light the flame again. [ K3587's advice column | Ask K3587 A Question ]

If they really think they are meant to be then they will be together eventually. Maybe they need some time apart from each other right now. I'm sure they will end back with each other. Just give them some time. I hope i helped.
