Help to deal a situation?

I have a friend who is having problems with her boy friend. They both fight a lot and he yells at her a lot. I am very quite person. She tells me all the time about what happened and she cries. I spend so much of time consolling her and the rest of the day, I keep thinking and feeling bad about her. But, next day, I see them together. Then the very same day they argue and she tells me and cries.

Now I am coming to a point where I don't beleive in any relationships at all and feel hopeless for my own life.

Please can some one advice me as how i should deal with this.

No funny remarks please. This situation really hurting me.

    First of all you need to step back and look at this situation. I know that you want to be there for your friend but this is her life and her dicissions. It's okay to be there for her sometimes but not as often and not as deep. You need to rethink things for you and start making decisons that are going to make you happy. You can't comapare everything to your friends man problems becaus honestly she's the stupid one. There are some great guys out there and your going to overlook them if you keep comparing them to that SOB. Everyone's life is based on the decisions that they make. You don't have to be like your friend. Honestly, You really need to back off of that situation for a while. You should be honest with your friend and let her know how you feel. Just let her know that you love her and will always be there for her but your getting too involved with whats going on between her and her boyfriend. She needs to deal with that a little more on her own because it should be personal between them anyways. Your friend will probably realize that he's a jerk someday anyways and then she will find someone who treats her right. Yes, there are some great relationships that last a lifetime. You just have to be picky in order to find them.

    You can't base your opinion of relationships on one couple, there are plenty of good relationships. I'd tell you to not get involved because, as you see, they will get back together and your negative comments are hanging there. You can listen to her, console her but don't say anything negative about him nor get too involved. It would be better if you didn't get involved at all. And if she throws that in your face tell her, I have given you my opinion and you didn't take it so there's nothing I can do for you. This has happened to me and it ended up blowing up in my face. And obviously what you've told her hasn't convinced her not to go back to him plus the fact that she went back to him so I don't think what you say is going to be of any use anyway. It is her problem, don't make it yours.

  • A lot of people get some kind of "rush" from drama. That could be the deal with your friend, since she is not willing to change the situation. She may also like the attention she gets from you.

    Don't lose hope! Most people are not like that. You need to separate yourself from her for a while. You need to tell her that you can't hear about her problems because it is tearing you apart.

    tell your friend how you are feeling about this relationship of hers. if it is ruining your life, because you spend all of your time consoling her, and you dont believe in any relationships at all, then u and your girl need to have a serious talk. you could even try to talk to her bf. try to show her how this is hurting not only her, but you too. she might take your advice, and break up with the guy.

    The same thing is happening to me.

    No the girl is not my friend friend,but she's a friend.And I hate it because he makes her feel really bad.Relationships are tricky,so at least tell her that he's not treating her right.

    Just so you know,not all relationships are like that.Don't lose hope.Some people are really sweet and nice to you,and don't yell at you all the time and make you feel bad.Good luck.

  • your friend is being verbally abused. and thats serious. and could also escalate to a an even worse place, like she could start being physicaly abused. do everything in your power to convince her to leave him. he's not gonna change. she's probably too young to be going thru that kind of situation. there are better guys out there. as for you, stop worrying about what your future holds. as long as you have the willpower to leave someone that doesnt treat you right, if you happen to meet one, then you'll be ok. there ARE good guys out there. and really get to know guys before you start a serious relationship. good luck with your friend.

    Your friend needs to dump her bf, that is not a healthy relationship. You need to find someone in a healthy relationship that can be a good model for you. Do not let this one bad example of a relationship spoil your thinking about them. There are many people in healthy happy relationships.

    Never take someone else's pain as your own. As for your friend, tell her she needs to either "s*** or get off the pot". That means she needs to make up her mind on what she's gonna do and stop coming to you when she's just gonna go back to the boyfriend anyway.

    If your friend fightswith hwer boyfriend every day, it does not mean every realtionship is like that.

    Me and my boyfriend argue from time to time, but at the end of the day we make up.

    If it happened every day, I wouldn't stay with my boyfriend ....

    Look for a boyfriend who will be willing to compromise!
