A female United States age , anonymous writes:

a girlfriend of mine called me the other day to tell me of a situation between her and her lover of almost 6 yrs. she then told me that it has been on and off for the past year. with arguments about other women etc.. she told me that they were to get together this past weekend and when he didn't show up she got very upset and sent him an email telling him she refuses to compete against another woman over him and that when he was ready for a real relationship to look her up. which by the way i told her may never happen because he already told her he didn't want that. so she went on to ask me if i thought she would hear from him again and if he would take her email as her never wanting to see him again.

i told here that yes she would hear from him again and that yes he will probably think you want to end whatever the two of them had going but that he would still try to keep her on the band wagon so to speak.

that it would be up to her to decide to stay or leave.

my question is did i give her the right advice and does anybody else agree to what i did say to her?

Hi

Yes you did the right thing good friends are like gold! She asked your advice and you gave her good advice, I would have said exactly as you did. Now comes the hard part, she will be upset for weeks to come and this is when you will be needed again!

Be there for her, sit through the tears and most of all do what you did when she asks your opinion BE HONEST!!

In the end she will value that! Good luck.
