My sister was just dumped by her boyfriend that she thought she was going to marry?

My sister was just dumped by her 3 year boyfriend 2 days ago. She has been crying for 2 whole days because she was so in love and she thought she was going to marry this man. I am trying to be a good sister to her, but it just seems awkward around her because she is crying all the time. What should i do to make her feel better?

    make fun of her until she stops. no really just continue to be there. always nice to have family around when a relationship crashes. 3 years is a long time for 2 people. i mean i felt like crap after being dumped a year ago. just be there for her. take her out and make her have a good time. just play the mother hen card and dont let her just go home with anyone. take care of her. alot to ask a family member or friend to do.

    She's going to a really tough time and sadly, nothing you can tell her will erase her pain. Don't be all over her because I'm sure she wants to be alone. Instead, check on her constantly and let her know you love her and will always be there for her. Tell her things happen for a reason, and even when it is painful right now, later she will realize it was for the best. Even if the man was good to her, maybe they were not meant to be because there is someone else out there who is all for her and would make it happier.I strongly believe everything happens for a purpose and God doesn't send anybody something they're not able to overcome. Maybe when she meets her soul mate in the future, she'll be glad she didn't marry the ex. When the storm is over, the sunlight shines again.

    Your sister knew long ago that her relationship with this guy wasn't as solid as she pretended it to be. She's embarrassed because now she has to answer the Whys? from family and friends. Tell her to pick herself up and move on because that's exactly what her guy has done. She has to let him see what he's missing by not contacting him, ignoring his calls, and taking extremely good care of her self by staying fit and looking good and happy. She needs to make that loser pay for his cowardly act and the best way to do it is to show him the sparkles on the diamond. Stay by her side and never leave her alone for too long and reminiscence with her about the time you guys played that awful joke on your uncle Joe that was hilarious.

    There's not much you can do, she will have to deal with it on her own & MOVE ON. You can hug her, spend some time with her by going out, buying her some sweets (chocolates, ice cream) etc. Sugar usually helps a woman relax when stressed out. Expect to feel irritated if she keeps crying or talking about him. Over all, she will have to deal with it on her own. Tell your sister that any guy who breaks up with her is never worth crying for. Eventually, she will find another guy in the future who will love her too much to let her go.

    I know it is weird but you should just be there for her, even though she is crying alot. The crying will go on for some time and then she will slowly begin to be able to move on.

    Just listen to her even though she will tell you the same things hundreds of times. It is what she needs to be able to heal and eventually find someone else!

    good luck, it is nice to have a good sister

    Leave town for a weekend with some friends and your sister. Do some activities that she enjoys with just girls and it should help her out. Even though your sister will probably take a while to heal her own wounds, just being there for her will help her, even though it may not seem like it.

    Spend a girls weekend with her and take her somewhere. Drinking, a spa, just something to take her mind off her worries. She'll get over him in time or maybe they can work their differences out. Just be a good sister and have that shoulder ready to be cried on.

    im afraid theres no longer something she will do... If he doesnt want to get married and he or she does its a dilemma. considered one of them might desire to sacrifice their desires and that i doubt he will.. in step with risk they might desire to get engaged have a huge occasion that would fulfill your sister.. in the tip marriage after the day is somewhat paper.. He has had 2 previous failed marriages so it is not stunning he's cautious approximately it. i wouldnt pass with patricia's answer merely because of the fact they disagree on the issue. a minimum of she has chanced on somebody who makes her so happy! Im afraid there is not any longer something she will do is she tries to rigidity him into it he might want out the relationship because of the fact of feeling rigidity. yet im particular each and every little thing will paintings out besides xx

    Try keeping her busy...go shopping. Just let her mourn the loss of her boyfriend. Its a process and it takes time.....remember time heals pain
