Advice for a male friend.
I have this friend who’s the kinda guy that’s always in a relationship. Hes about 21 now and just broke up with his gf of 2 years on/off. Well, hes having a really tough time adjusting to the “single life”. I’ve known him as being really cocky and confident…but ever since the breakup hes completely broken down. He says he feels insecure due to all of the new competition thats around him.
I know that the gf thing was a total comfort thing for him, which kept him going, and which also gave him hope for things. Right now his lifes not really going in any particular direction, and hes even more stressed and hopeless bc he has no gf on his side anymore.
My question is just that I’m trying to be there for him, but how do you tell/help someone to get over their insecurity? I’ve also been pretty insecure at one large point in my life, however i got over it with years of experience/knowledge/close family which ultimately led to my confidence now. But how do I help my friend?
