Hiya,

Just wondered if anyone had any advice as to how I can support my friend?

She's been with her fella for about 2 1/2 yrs and they bought a house together last year. They were due to marry in 9 months and had everything booked.

Trouble is she has realised that she doesn't love him any more and has ended things.

She is heart broken but she knew that marrying someone she doesn't love would have made her seriously unhappy.

I'm getting married myself in 4 weeks and I really wondered if anyone had any advice as to how I can support her - the last thing I want to do is depress her because I'm getting married myself.....

I know, thanks princess.

Does anyone else suggest anything?

I don't want her to feel like I'm being nosey or butting in, but I want to make sure she's ok.

She keeps saying that she feels awful because she can't cry..... but when she sees him he's in floods of tears. She says it makes her feel like a heartless bitch - but I know she isn't!

I feel sorry for the bloke! He's going to even more heartbroken as he is the one being dumped!! Still best to tell him now than after the wedding I suppose.

I'm sure she understands about your wedding, just be there for her. Just talk to her, have a girly night and have a good chat etc.

is there anybody else involved? i.e shes seen another man who she likes?

all you can do is carry on with your wedding.. make her big part of it, cos she'll be happy for you!!!! make a fuss, make her feel she has a VERY important part in your wedding, sure sh'll love that x

No noone esle is involved.

He's just not been very good around the house - not been paying the bills etc leaves the house in a tip.

she's told him about this time and time again and he hasn't changed so she's just realised that he'll never change and she cant be with someone who she has to be a surrogate mother for.....

She's still very heartbroken tho'
