Your friend, the one that never seems to pick the right match, has a new love. They are exceedingly happy, and you would be happy for them if you didn’t absolutely HATE the person they are with. You can’t stand who your friend is dating, so what should you do?
Hold Your Tongue, At First
When your friend is happy, you should be happy for them. So don’t immediately blurt out how much you can’t stand their new love. It could be that the things your friend sees in his or her new love are not visible to you, yet. So try and see the good in your friend’s new love. You might be surprised and find that your opinion changes over time. In the meantime, you don’t want to say something negative about your friend’s love that could damage your friendship.
Is the New Boyfriend or Girlfriend Bad for Your Friend?
If you find that your friend’s new love is causing your friend harm in some way, you owe it to your pal to speak up. But be cautious. Be certain you know exactly what the new guy or girl is doing. Is the person causing your friend to drink too much? Gamble? Do drugs? Does your friend avoid you since he or she started dating? These are things that could possibly be addressed. But remember that if you come on too strong, your friendship could take a hit. So go gently before talking to your friend. Make sure you are doing what’s best for them.
