Hey everyone, so one of my close friends is really upset of his break up with his girlfriend of 8 months. Things just weren't working out between them. I don't exactly know what happened but 6 months in, the girl changed. I heard from some close friends that she started to not care about the relationship anymore but he didn't notice. As time went on, my close friend would come to me more often to rant about her. It seemed he was keeping all his problems to himself for awhile but regardless of any of the problems that came up, he would always go back to her to feel happiness when she clearly seemed to be just using him for her own benefits.

I'm glad that their relationship is over but it pains me to see him upset. He's incredibly heartbroken and I want to do my best to support him. He tells me that he wants to believe it'll go back to before. He hopes that the relationship will fix itself and that this was just a "break" in the relationship. From my perspective, the girl doesn't seem to care that much at all. It makes me so pissed off but right now I just want to support him as much as I can. Is there any advice that I can give him? I don't want to make him feel worst. I want to help him as much as I can and try to make him realize that it's better to not go back to her but I don't know how.
