well there are people who help out kids like your friend. They just sort of lift the spirits in you. I've seen this happened because my friend was depressed and she told me about this woman who just made her feel good again. I hope I helped.

To make him happy and get him out of his "I hate life. It's not worth living" mode, I think that you should take him places like the movies, a fair or carnival (if there is one by where you live), out for pizza, or just to a party or to hang out, and try to make him laugh. after awhile it might help him get out of that mode because he will see how fun life is and that he can have fun without your best friend. (no offense to her). hope i helped. ~Kerri~

Well i would talk to the new girl that he likes and see if she likes him.Try to cheer him up.
I know how he's feeling it hurts when you get out of a relationship.
Hope i helped.

The best thing you can do for him is be there for him. If you commiserate with him it just makes matters worse. Talk up the good things in his life and don't view him as 'broken'. He'll be fine. A lot of times when relationships end there is a little slum time. Now, if he's cutting himself and YOU KNOW IT - HAVE PROOF - then maybe you want to talk to his parents - depending on how they are. Just because someone says they hate their life doesn't mean they want it to end. Sometimes they just get into the habit of saying that everything sucks. Just take your conversations with him somewhere else. Don't keep pitying him or he will believe there is really something about his life so bad that other people feel sorry for him too. Remind him - in not so direct ways what he has to be grateful for. Although it may have seemed that this breakup is all that happened, people don't go from my life is great to I hate my life and stay there for any amount of time unless there were issues before.
The best thing you can do is be a friend. Don't go down in the dumps with him - listen and then show him the positive side of things very gently.

sounds like he's just down. You can't do anything about how other people act. They choose to act and feel the way they do for the most part. Its just a phase, a cry for attention. If something gets serious, then talk to him and someone else, but other than that, I think it'll be okay. If your worried though, you might want to talk to him about it. Be honest. Good Luck. <3 Lana
