A male United Kingdom age 30-35, *alshie93 writes:

Right so, here is a situation.

My friend, who is a girl, has just broken up with her boyfriend of a year and a half.

Now, she is an extremely attractive young girl, funny and intelligent. All of that.

However, I can't bear to see her upset and giving up everything so easily just because he said he didn't feel the same way about her any more.

He's said to her, that he misses her, that he still wants to be friends, basically EVERYTHING someone says when they don't want to lose that person.

Right so. I want to help her, I want to help her get him back, or at least try it, so that she learns that it wasn't HER fault the break up happened. I know it wasn't because she's ridiculously caring to everyone

I've already told her, being friends with him is the worst move to getting him back. And that is all I have said so far. I mean, I broke up with my own girlfriend, and I agreed to it and such and refused to be friends and she came back, but then I messed it up.

I would just appreciate any advice I could give to my friend on this matter, I know what I want to tell her, that she should if she feels up for it

Agree to the break up, write a short note, saying he was right, and totally throw him off course.

I've told her the worst she can do is beg and ask for him back.

But, I don't want her following the path I did, if it wont help her
