writes:My friends girlfriend of 6 years recently broke up with him. He is taking it really hard. I really dont understand what happened. His ex is acting wierd and im not sure what advice to give him. A little background on them. They have been together 6 years. She is very pretty, just graduated from college, just landed a 100k job, still lives at home, around 25-27. He graduated a while ago, has had trouble finding work, last year landed a great job, but his parents forced him to keep his old crummy one too(i dont understand either). He lives at home, has gained some weight, 25-27. I read franks book everything out of her mouth is a test. I can see how this makes it look like he beta males himself, but around her he doesnt really complain or anything. I figured he acted really alpha around her. Recently he cosigned a loan for a new car for her. He got her a great deal. She was bugging him to get engaged and get her a ring. Then, like a week later, she starts a fight over nothing and tells him she needs space. She still called him almost everyday though. Last week she breaks up with him, but tells him she still loves him and sees them getting back together in '09 and getting married still.. She also keeps calling him, like every other day, and asking if he plans to see other women. And complaining that her parents are making this break up hard on her(i guess they liked my friend). And this is still the first week of the break up. I think she is trying to make him her cookie man or whatever. Well thats all the stuff i know. This is honestly confusing. She breaks his heart but she is still hounding him. and asking him if they could still get back together in '09. Or if he is still open to the idea of dating again.

hey there, this sounds very complicated indeed, my best advise for you is to support your friend and just be there for him, hopefully he will realise that perhaps he is better of without this girl, as Im sure the way she is acting is affecting his confidence. If she truly loves him she wouldnt be acting in such a way. I would tell him to talk to her, and try to find out what her real motives are?! I wish your friend luck and happiness. Jodie
