For most of us, our best friends are more like sisters who got separated from us at birth. If you're like me, you often care about your girls more than you care about yourself. So what do you do when a guy breaks their heart? Here are 5 steps to heal your best friends broken heart.
1. Be there.
I know this might sound obvious, but be there for her. Answer her FaceTime at 2 am, pick up the phone when she's calling you for the 4th time in a row. Show her you are there for her even though that terrible boy isn't anymore.
2. Support her.
Again, it seems obvious, but I gotta put it out there. If she decides that she wants to drown her sorrows with a gallon of ice cream and rewatch the Notebook, then go buy some ice cream. Let her heal in her own way and walk alongside her.
3. Don't judge.
I feel like this goes hand in hand with supporting her. If her way of getting over her broken heart is going out almost every night, don't pass judgment on her. You don't know what you would do if you were in her position. It's one thing to prevent her from making a life-altering decision like a tattoo she might regret in a month or so, but let her do her now that she finally can.
4. Dance it out.
Sometimes all it takes is a night with your girls, whether it's in your bedroom, or out on the town. Dance away all the tears and pain.
5. Remind her that he is not the sun, but that she is.
Sorry, I just had to throw in another Grey's quote because it is my favorite. But seriously, be the Cristina Yang to her Meredith Grey. Don't let that boy eclipse her light because she is the sun.
