Tell her to stop with her boyfriend and accept that it's over. She has to let him go. It's unfair to keep him hanging around. If she wants this other guy, then tell her to dump her boyfriend and try with this other guy. She needs to accept that her current boyfriend will make his own choice and has the right to make his own choice about whether he wants anything to do with her afterwards. If she doesn't take this chance, she'll only regret it and it will hurt her and her boyfriend even more.
