Question:
Long story cut short, someone I care about is going through a crisis. Her life is like falling apart, school/family/etc. and I feel like there's nothing I can do. I'm honestly scared that she might hurt herself and it's impossible for me to approach her about it since we live over four hours apart. I just saw her this weekend and I could already tell that things weren't going so well.
Any advice? =/
Answer:
Can you specify what you saw that made you think her life has gone awry? 4 hours away isn't too bad. There are other forms of communication like texting, phone, email, and small visits on holidays. Let her know you're there for her, and that will surely make her feel a little better about life.
Sometimes, all a person needs in life is a little reassurance that things will be okay...
Answer:
specifically... ??
texting, callingg.
email, chatting.
it`d be better if we knew what she was going through
Answer:
She's going through family problems. Divorce, unfaithfulness, etc.
This isn't the first time this has happened, it's just that it gets worse every time she gets news of it and honestly I think she's sick of me telling her that everything will be ok =/
Answer:
Hugs and Kisses! Yup, they always help.
Answer:
Hugs and Kisses! Yup, they always help.
Haha. I would but as I said we're like 4-5 hours apart for college -.-
Answer:
texting her, calling her, sending her e-mails showing that you care:D
help a lot, so she knows that there is someone out there who cares for her3
Answer:
All I can say is just be there for her, reguardless how far she is, call her, text her, sometimes, make her feel she`s still wanted. No matter what always be there for her and that`s the best thing you could do. Always tell you care and that you are always there, though her life is falling apart, all she needs to know is someone actually is there for her and still cares for her.
Answer:
call her a lot!!!!
talk to her. and let her know that you care!!
let her know that you care!!!
let her know.
some people dont feel any care and they sink into deeper depression.
just keep her mind company and reassure her that
you will be there for her no matter the pain.
you're a good friend!
good luck.
Answer:
Haha thanks. But I find calling her impossible, she's super phone shy and hates it when I call =/
Answer:
depends on the person
if she's the kind of person who deals with problems herself, let her be
if she needs someone to help her out, then be there for her
i hate when people try to help me with my problems
i appreciate the gesture, but...back off...ya know...
Answer:
go to her.
i would comfort her as much as i can, if she likes it, stay with her and be a real good talker so she can find shelter in you
Answer:
Constantly show her you care, but don't overwhelm her. Being far away doesn't keep you from being a good friend.
