How A Suddenly Single Friend Can Devastate Your Relationship?

It is always a wonderful feeling when you hang out with your best friend. You guys could even go on double dates with your boyfriends and have great fun as a small little gang. Even your boyfriends could possibly develop a friendship with each other. Can you imagine the things that you guys can plan for having fun? You could go on double dates on bikes and have great fun on the road.

The problem, however, is if your friend suddenly breaks up with her boyfriend and becomes single. Things will not be the same as in the good old days. How is it you can handle such a situation now?

Emotional support

Even if your relationship is going smoothly at this point in time, you will need to understand that your friend will show emotional outbursts. She will be looking forward to your support. In such a situation, you will surely have to listen to her, and perhaps offer her your shoulders to cry. Such emotional breakdown normally takes time to heal, and you will need to offer extended support to your friend. Your boyfriend may not think like you are thinking. Perhaps in the starting stages, he might cooperate, but after a while, he will surely lose his cool. As a friend and a girlfriend, this is a tricky tightrope for you to walk on.

Encourage her to go out

Now as she feels low, you will have to boost her until she finds another partner. Show her light and make her see the positive features of her breakup – more freedom being single. This is an opportunity to meet someone better and start dating.

She will feel that the doom she has suffered actually has a positive outcome and she will be prepared to go out. However, in this process, you will have to accompany her because at this moment she is vulnerable. You do not want any new person taking advantage of her. Moreover, you will ignore your personal relationship and spend more time with different males that can be disturbing.

She may also hang around with your date. He might feel that your friend is gate-crashing his romantic date and actually gets pissed off. The girl he talks about is your friend and this situation makes you feel negative about him. Ultimately, you may start wondering, if you should be single again.

Friend's breakup drains your faith

No one desires to be besides a person, who is miserable in desolation and reminds you of how males can crush females. It is no fun for you. Trying to cheer and entertain your suddenly single friend can drain you. Additionally, it can even force you to lose faith in relationships with men. You are watching her single-hood flirting with good-looking strangers that have left you wondering about being single.

Puts ideas to be single

Your friend is single and she wants you on her side to share some girly dirty talks about strangers. However, you are in a relationship and cannot share her single life, so it does not excite her. She may want to have fun together like before when both of you were single. Such ideas can push you away from your boyfriend and potentially damage your relationship.
