One friend of mine brokeup with his girlfrind and he is really depressed. He makes all to be good but they always arguing. She is 20 but she acts like a child. She isn't mature and doesn't know what is with her life. I want to help my friend and a disscusion doesn't help very much. What do say ?

tell him ...dont think about her, dont call her, dont text her. dont listen to depressing sad songs its also okay to cry, so spend time with yourself doing that and afterwards, spend time with friends, go out, have fun,dont let the breakup affect you.

you can start by trying to tell yourself you broke up to give yourself and your gf a chance to really find who will make the two of you happy... and if the two of you are really meant to be, the whole world will conspire and God will be in control to make it all possible but in the mean time, try to enjoy your time to find yourself and know yourself a little bit more and just enjoy life as it is and be patient. God is in control :)

Hi! Your friend should move ahead forgetting the past. He should not feel depressed and make himself understand that God probably has something exciting for him in store that is why this break up happened. All the best to him.

If a discussion or talk will not help it's useless to do so. It all takes time and the knowing that before your friend a million of people had exacty the same experience! If he is really depressed he better visit a doctor. For the rest I can only say: be there. There is no need to talk, to give advices. The only thing depressed people need is a listener, someone who is there.. sitting next to them in silence.. the knowledge they can knock on a door if needed and if it takes too long someone who kicks their a.. push them under the shower, force them to get dressed and go out!

Aside from love, communication is one vital key in having a successful relationship. Your friend should talk this over with her girl, tell her what he's thinking about her and that both of them should commit to working things out, only if they are willing to do so. That girlfriend would never know what's wrong with her unless he tells her that.

I think the best option for him is to have a busy life to forget. It's not goiung to help if he's at home 24/7 moaning about her. He should have programmes. Cinema, theatre, sports, exhibitions, going to grab a bite or drink a coffee, sports matches... also, he should take up a hobby that needs a lot of attention and time. Maybe to start collecting stamps or to map up his own family tree or to scrapbook or anything DIY. It helps a lot to take away his attention.

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well i can understand that the break up would not have gone well with your friend. i think u should leave him alone for a while but at the same time try to give your best efforts to distract him from this matter and get him indulged in some other matters so that he forgets whatever has happened with him in the past. That is the best way to help him overcome the heartbreak. I hope it works for him. What say?
