Broken Engagement

[AngieDoogles]

One of my dearest friends has been engaged to her fiance since December, but she broke it off with him this week. She's having a very difficult time since they have dated for over three years. She really felt it was the right thing to do though(and her parents agreed) because he often brought her down and made her feel really bad. He also didn't appreciate all of the things she did for him either. She gave and gave, but he didn't really do very much at all. The guy is bipolar so their relationship has always been up and down. She said that when he was happy, she was ecstatic and felt like the happiest person alive, but when he was sad he would try to make her sad too and she'd end up crying in her room for days. This is not like her at all. She was prom queen and homecoming queen in high school and is really bubbly, outgoing, and just fun to be around. She's also the most genuinely nice person I've ever met.

Anyway, she has been having a very hard time dealing with this and has been hanging out with me and my hubby almost every night since (and just before) they broke up. I wish I could make her feel better, but the best I can do is listen to her stories and tell her that we are here for her when she needs us. I was just hoping that you ladies might be able to say a quick prayer for her. I'd love to see her truly happy and smiling again, but I know it will take time. I just hate it when people are sad...
