Love help: My best friend just broke up with her boyfriend who cheated on her for 5 months. - Help.com

He cheated on her for 5 months of an 8 month relationship. I’d kick is ***!

There is not a whole lot you can do if she wants to get herself hurt. I would try to be supportive and probably talk to her about the consequences of such a relationship.

Is she crazy? If she’s that much in love with him you can’t do anything. Try telling her there are nice people in this world and help her find one.

All you can do is be there for her no matter what she decideds….to me it is obvious that he does not ” love ” her if he did why on earth did he cheat?

So just support her because if you don’t and she gets back with him, well i could damage your friendship :/

good luck

Just be a good friend and be there when she needs you to pick up the pieces.

yeah i dont know why he did it :@
we’re trying to help her now, it’ll just seem like a slap in the face if she goes against our advice
the guys such an idiot

Yep i know what you mean, i have a friend which went against my advice and went back to a guy, i knew it wouldnt last, which it didnt and i was there to pick up the pieces, now she can she what an idiot she was, but at the time she was blinded by love =/
It does hurt slightly when your friends go against your advice but they will just learn the hard way and you just have to remember that your friend isnt trying to hurt you on purpose :)
But that guy doesn’t deserve your friend at all =/

all you can do is try and make her see sence she will eventually when he does it again as i found out “once a cheat always a cheat” if she goes against your advice i would shock her into reality and say if you prefer to go back and get hurt again then dont expect us to be waiting for you when he does it again or something along those lines thats what my mates done to me even though they were still actually there for me waiting its just to shock her…
i just wish i could tell her to listen to you because your right…
wish i had done that before all this happened to me..
hope this helps

If you can’t talk her out of this relationship.
Then all you need to do is to be there for her when she needs you.
Some people need to experience the hardship themselves to be able to understand their situation.
We can’t do much about it as it’s their life.
Just stick with them, show them that you care.

shocking!
ellie doesn’t know what to say to that. just be there for her, and make sure you are there for her when she needs you. xx

I was your friend once…. I took my ex back knowing he had cheated on with at least four different women…. At times i thought he was all i had…. because a lot of my friends were thinking the same as you do…. the problem with that is the ex used that to make me feel isolated… he would tell me that they weren’t real friends i they didn’t support me with who i wanted to be with etc…. i know for a fact i stayed with him a lot longer because i was worried that even my best friends would judge me as weak or desperate for taking him back… at least with him i had someone! My friends had to stand by and watch me hit rock bottom before they could step in and help me through things…. You’ll have to do the same… but try and reassure her that you will never judge her for her decisions about him…. It’s the key to helping her through this.
