person123 Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 Hi my friend recently broke up with her boyfriend. We are close friends, and I found out through another friend that she broke up (happened 2 days ago), but I have not directly asked her about it yet myself, even though I know that she will tell me if I do. I want to help her out but I feel like directly asking her about it wouldn't be the best way to begin, although I think she might already know that I might know (she went out drinking that night and got really drunk, and told me about how drunk she got the morning after). What's the best way to approach her about this and what I can do to help her? Thanks
chados Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 well is she miserable?. i dont think its a bad thing asking your friend about that. although i feel like she would tell you if she wants to talk? it doesnt make much sense to help her if she's fine with it. what i dont like is that she's partying 2 days after a breakup. if he's a good guy and he's been nice to her i actually feel more sorry for the guy.
Author person123 Posted December 14, 2011 Author Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) What happened was, she broke up that afternoon and went out to a party some friends were having in order to drink and forget about all this. She doesn't really drink that much normally. The thing is I probably won't see her that often for a few days, but I still want to make sure she's okay Edited December 14, 2011 by person123

Author person123 Posted December 29, 2011 Author Posted December 29, 2011 it's why you're going to a party that matters right? it's not like you're partying to have fun. what if breaking up made you extremely? wouldn't you rather try to do something about it?
flitzanu Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 it's why you're going to a party that matters right? it's not like you're partying to have fun. what if breaking up made you extremely? wouldn't you rather try to do something about it? if she's your close friend, why wouldn't she just tell you in the first place? your concern for her well being is noble...but seems rather misplaced if she isn't even talking about it. maybe she really just doesn't care, or maybe she didn't care about the guy and is off partying to find a new one.
