A friend of mine was betrayed twice....

There is not a lot you can do Love if she won't listen to you then she will be hurt again I personally would not even consider it but you get some People that just don't learn at all I hope it goes ok

Try to be supportive of her descisions, but also serve to remind her, so she makes it with clear mind, and thought. Some people need to be hurt more than once before they learn to stay away.. other time people really do change... I would suggest just doing your best to be a good friend to your friend, and be prepared to help her in case she falls, but also be prepared to be happy for her if she decides to go back, and watch carefully, and subtlely help her see the truth as opposed as to being direct with an "I told you so" like thing - DNatureofDTrain

she has been betrayed twice by the same promise, yet, she's actually reconsidering on whether to get back to him? well, my friend, you have to let her chose her own path...dont meddle into this case, as whatever the consequences are, you will appear to be the bad guy. ask her to make her own decision and be prepared to accept whatever consequences by herself.

I don't think there is much for you to do, you could try to talk her out of it. And if that doesn't work, you'll have to let her make her own mistakes.

If you really think about it, people don't change. Well, yes, but it's just the trivial things. All the main values and instinctive things about us don't change. That includes how we see and treat people. You defenitly can't change anyone else. He's going to do it again because he knows she will let him. at this point, it sounds like a pattern that needs to be interrupted. She needs you as a friend, she may get mad and hate you, but don't let her go back. Trust me, she'll love you again. It makes me want to cry to think of all women have fought for over the years, to end up in a crappy relationship where she's being treated badly. There are TONS of good safe guys out there, Talk about treated great. Life is too short to not be happy.

I don't know whether I should sympathise with your friend or call her silly! She has been betrayed twice by the same person already & yet she's still considering going back to the guy???!!!??? I guess as a friend, what you can do is really to have a good talk about this. But if she still insists on having her way, then you can only wish her good luck.

Maybe she should decide, but all you can do is be there for her as quite often we want to listen to advice, but when it comes to the heart it is not so easy!

Some people are pain junkies and there's really not a whole lot you can do about it. It;s frustrating when you tell someone don't and then they do and you're like " I told you" and yet there she goes for him again. Stay off that tpic and secure your relationship
