How do you deal with a break up? how do you comfort them?

My friend has just broken up with her boyfriend and she wont get out of bed. She said the thought of never seeing him again makes her sad and feel sick. It made me think that we just never know when we are never going to see someone again. The only certain thing in life is that we are going to die. I have never broken up with anyone before so i dont really know any words of comfort

Tell her dont try to lock herself up. be happy, and paint the town red. Dont fret over it. Life is lovely so dont waste your time thinking about that break-up. Tell her learn from that experience to be strong and to let her face the world again with dignity. Love herself.

I just broke up with my boyfriend after 3 years and needless to say it hit him pretty hard. The only thing you can say is the truth. Tell her I know it hurts now, but with time, things will get better. Let her know that she's not alone and you are there for her 24/7. Personally, I use humor in situations that are uncomfortable, but it doesn't always work. So let her know that their is a reason for everything and although that reason is hard to see right now, in the long run she'll be happier in life!
