boyfriend gone?


Question Posted Thursday August 3 2006, 3:16 pm

My friend has a problem and I don't know what to say to her...This is what she said in a message she sent me.

(her boyfriend) moved. please don't think he said this just to break up with me, and not tell me the real reason why. i know he didn't. but he's gone. while he was away with some relative, his dad got a house in frisco.(a town somewhat near us) and i don't think i'll see him again, at least not any time soon.

She's devastated right now and crying really bad...I've never been in this situation and I don't know what to say to her...Please help me?

What you need to do is be there for your friend right now, whenever you can. Talk to her whenever she needs someone to talk to; it's better in person, but if that's not possible, talk on the phone. Give her lots of hugs and a shoulder to lean on.

Remind your friend that even if she can't see her boyfriend all the time, she can still call him and email him. Remind her that you are there for her and if she needs anything, you have her back. And remember, when you don't know what to say, it's okay to just listen and say "I know" every once in a while.

This is obviously very, very difficult for your friend, so let her wallow for a while. She'll feel better later, but for now you need to take care of her. It may be hard for you to support her right now, but remember that your friend will do the same for you later on.

Good luck and I hope I helped :)

If her boyfriend moved to a town near yours, not all hope is lost. Since they are both near each other they can still see each other from time to time. Also, it is human nature to cry and be upset when someone close leaves. It is also human nature to get over the incident, no matter how big it is. Eventually, as hard as this is to believe, she will get over it and move on, she may deny it, but eventually she will forget the whole matter.

Well, there really isnt anything she can do about it because her boyfriend can't just, move back. But she should keep in touch with him through the phone and stuff. As long as she can talk to him, she will probably feel better. Just make her feel better by hanging out with her and stuff.
