My close friend's three yr affair is coming to an end. She is in serious freefall mode and cannot fathom how to live with losing her best friend, lover, soulmate, and boss all at the same time. I am watching her fall apart and feel very helpless. Can you recommend some advice for coping during this time?
Signed, Friend

Hi. If you can, send her to this site, and to the bookstore.
But here's the deal. She has to do all of her own healing. She has to make the choices and do the work. Nobody can do it for her. The best thing you can do is remind her of that, and love her through her pain. But don't accept any victim shit! It is bad for longterm healing. OK?
