A reader, anonymous, writes (2 July 2015):

All you can do is comfort her as a friend; but you have to allow her to come to grips with reality.

She is refusing to accept the fact he is promised to another, and she is stubbornly dragging her own feelings in the dirt. She is acting like a spoiled child insisting on having what she wants, when she knows the answer is emphatically "NO!!!"

Leave her alone to agonize and get-over him. You can't restore her happiness. She has to bring herself around. You might also need to back-off to let her stew in her childish foolishness.

Never cater to a drama-queen. It becomes a full-time job, and her emotionalizing and melodramatics will keep you from attending to your own business. It will bring you down, and you'll lose focus over your own affairs. Are you secretly in-love with her? You seem far too involved in her love-life.
