Need help with my friend?

Question

hi, basically one of my best mates has just been dumped by his girlfriend after 4 years of being together. my problem is i have no idea what to say or do to make him feel better because he doesnt want to be by himself and wants to chill out with me. i find this even more horrible as i went through the same thing just over a year ago but i honestly cant think of what to do or say which just makes me feel terrible. so what do i do or say to him? please help, thanks in advance :)

Answer 1

Depends what type of person he is. Have you noticed he prefers to talk through issues, or just ignore them and be happy? If you guys could have fun together, play games watch funny films or whatever you do, maybe h's looking for a distraction. If he seems to want to talk about it or be glum, then I suggest you just listen and provide support. But if it gets too hard for you because he goes on miserably for hours, then try and get him out of it, tell him that it's best if you guys do something else.

well for 1..u shud be happy the fact that he wants 2 be wid u nd chill...i think u jus try not 2 bring the subject up..jus go out nd chill sumwer, go shopping or summet, do funni things 2 try nd make him laff even if it is for jus that 2mins or so..at least in them 2mins he hasnt thought about wats happend..thats wat my partner always tells me nd it WORKS!!

I suppose u cud chat about the problem cuz sumtimes it always help but i think he wud appreciate u jus bein there even if ur not sayin nefin..

sumtimes u dont even have 2 say or do nefin 2 make that person appreciate u for jus bein there...
