My cousin


Question Posted Wednesday September 2 2009, 11:47 pm

So my cousin is devastated because her fiance broke up with her after almost 4 years together...
I know that I can't really help her the way she wants me too and I know she will get through this but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of things she can do that will help her feel better even for a moment? Like when I was heart broken I started coming on here and giving advice because it took my mind off of my problems (I already sugested it...she shot it down) I also liked to read quotes and listen to songs that described how I was feeling (I don't know why but it made me feel better)
tell me stories about what you did to make yourself happy when you were heartbroken so I can get some ideas to help her.
Thanks

Get her out the house. If she is not ready to meet new people than just take her to the movies or take her for a walk even. Get her mind off it. Give her love and attention. Watch something or do something that doesnt have nothing to do with him. And if he calls dont let her answer it. If he ask is she there say she doesnt want to talk to him and dont let them be friends or she will never get over it.

Sometimes the best way to help someone is to listen to them. When I am really down things that made me feel better was spending time with friends and family. I'd get out of the house even when I felt at my worst. Spend time with her, Take her out for a little while grab a bite to eat if she is hysterical over the situation it won't hurt to get it too go and park somewhere and try and listen to her. Support her and comfort her and try to be understanding assure her that everything will be just fine. If you have too keep telling her that he isn't worth it and never was and keep assuring her that things will be okay. Yes she will get through this, It will just take some time.

hahah you and me are so alike!i came here after i got heartbroken too and listen to music etc etc..

well things that helped me is also taking up a boxing class. it was reallly good to get all the anger out.

she can go for a run and let off all that steam

she can read books or go clubbing, dancing is good.

she can write how she feels on a peice of paper and rip it all up..that truly does help!

ummm what else..being around friends all the time helps, maybe you two can watch some dvds and eat ice cream together

most importantly she needs you there for her and not to talk about her fiance or how shes feeling but to make her laugh and have abit of fun so shes not thinking about him.

she can also go to the beach and sit there watching the waves, its calming

she can get herself alittle kitten or puppy which will give her something else to love :]

im really sorry about your cousin,hang in there
