My bestfriend has just broke up with her boyfriend who she was with for almost 12 months (it would of been 1 year next week) it's her first relationship that has lasted. I don't know what to say to her when i see her, what not to say, how to comfort her or anything as this is new to me too. Any advice on what to say and what not to say to her when i see her in person?

Thankyou for your advice! I went over to see her 3 days after they split to give her time until she could tell me. We had a lovely walk to the park sat on a bench in our own little garden and she just told me every little detail whilst I listened, we then had a massive hug and heart to heart and she said she feels like she can tell me anything. Thankyou ever so much :-) x

MissTellAll agony auntAll you can do really is let her know if she needs to vent her feelings you are there and that this is not the end of the world. In situations like this it is far more important just to be there than the actual words coming out of your mouth.

If she was broken up with, maybe go out for a girls day together. If that isn't your thing, just take her out and have her do something fun that she likes that hopefully will not remind her of her ex. Then after a fun outing if she wants to talk just be open, supportive ans honest.

Best wishes to her and you.
