I don't like my best friend's boyfriend?
So my best friend got back together with her old b/f. He is the type of guy who has to have a g/f and likes drama. If there isn't any drama he creates drama. I can't stand that about him. So basically he's using my bff just so he can have a g/f and she is to oblivious to see that. Now things are falling apart for her and I just can't find a way to tell her to get over it. I want to get my point across about what a jerk this guy is but I don't want to so mean she feels she just can't talk to me about this type of thing. I need something that is worded gently but at the same time is blunt.
Please if you are good with words, help.

Just tell her how you fell and that you do not like him. I always told my friend if I did not like her bf and she was always happy when I did and wish I told her early that I did not like him. Also just be there for your friend and support her that is what friends are for.

wow i had that SAME problem. well ive figured out that you should try to be really nice telling her first. then if she doesnt get it, maybe try it one more time but after that, you have to be really blunt and straightforward. just say exactly what you typed. if she still is oblivious then here comes the hardest part. some people are really stubborn and have to find things out on their own. so i know it might hurt but if nothing else works then you just have to sit back and let her figure out how much of a dick her bf is which means you have to just let him hurt her bc she wont learn any other way. also whenever he's around you can just leave or ignore him.

Bring a nice guy around so she can see the difference. Don't make it obvious you are trying to set her up. Just bring over one of your nice guy friends that she doesn't know very well and let him in on what you are trying to do. If she sees how a good guy is suppose to act she may figure it out on her own.

You can't really interfere its just a case of be there for her when it ends. You may not like her boyfriend and think he's a jerk but you have to be sensitive towards her feelings for him as because she really likes him she can't see his obvious flaws. Lots of women/girls are like this is they really like/love someone. Just be supportive and make her aware with sensitive honesty that she could do better and he's not worth it (when things go wrong or they split)
