Unfortunately we have all been in this situation. Some day, some where, some lame guy broke up with the bright and shining girl you call your best friend. She is heartbroken, and you feel heartbroken because you don't know how to help her. No amount of ice cream or imagined threats to that a$$hole is going to help mend their pain. What can you do except show her that she is worth more, and deserves more, than the effort and heartache that stupid guy gave her.
So girl, listen, and listen close:
You are a strong, independent woman that needs no man.
When I met you, I was immediately in awe of how confident you where. You did not care about the opinion of others, you looked in the mirror, happy with what you saw, and you didn't just walk, you strode around campus. I spent time with you, hoping your confidence would rub off on me. But now, I've seen you cry, I've seen you stare longer at your reflection in the mirror, and I've seen your walk slow and your head lower. I want you to know, no, I NEED you to know that my opinion of you has not changed. I need you to know that even if your self esteem has lowered because of this breakup and you feel unsure of who you are and how awesome you are, who you are as a person has not changed. You will regain your confidence, and I will try my hardest to help you rebuild. You are strong, you are capable of anything, and a relationship does not define who you are.
You deserve the world, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Believe it or not, you are an amazing person. Your heart is big and your hands are always extended to help others. You didn't deserve for your heart to be broken, not by him, not by anyone. I know you are in pain, yet I can't help but feel relieved that he is out of your life. He didn't treat you like the queen you are, and some day he is going to regret that.
You will be happy again.
I know it may not seem like it now, but eventually you will get over him, and you will feel better. Your smile will come back, your confidence will return, and you will be taking the world by storm. One day you will find a man who knows your worth, and you will never again doubt yourself or that nice guys are out there. Never believe that you don't deserve the best life has to offer.
No matter what life throws at you, just know that you can handle it and that you'll be okay.
