My friend is a very clever and hardworking honest person but has nothing but continual bad luck in every part of his life. The things that sometimes go wrong should never happen in a lifetime. I want to help because I believe one day the final nail in his coffin will happen and I want to try and stop this.

Many times "bad luck" is caused by a negative attitude toward life. Tell your friend to spend some time outside with nature, at the park, the beach or just lying in the grass. Tell your friend to count his blessings and be thankful for all the wonderful things in his life. When he changes his "poor me" attitude, his life will change.

this is why army wives have such a bad reputation. thanks your husband working his *** off 9, sometimes 12 or more hours a day is not an excuse to start flirting with his friends. maybe he is different because he's no longer doing paperwork or interviewing clients but preparing for war. do him a favor, go ahead and divorce him before he deploys-you obviously won't be able to "handle" that either. i am 8 months pregnant and my husband leaves wednesday for ntc. he might be back for the birth of his first son, he might not. even if he is, he only has 2 months at home with him before he deploys for a year. am i whining and crying about how he doesn't listen to me and make me feel how i used to? no. grow up.

Supporting him emotionally is the best you can do.
OR you can take him to Neuro Linguistic Programming NLP groups. Once he learns the programme, he will start feeling better I'm sure. The things wouldn't get better but his attitude would be more positive.
I'm having bad luck all the time. I don't remember a full happy day. Something always comes up. But they do for all the people; the problem is that I cannot handle them. The internet is easing my pain, keeping me company. I don't have much supportive friends, they have their own problems.
So be there for him.

Focus hard and expand on any good things that happen to him or around him. Really notice anything, no matter how small or inconsequential. Encourage him to do the same. Also get him to visualise on good outcomes in quite some detail. You do it too. Both of you visualise him in successful outcomes.
If any hurdles arise, see the possibilities for something good and ignore the rest. Focus on good, positive, desired, wanted..
Good luck.

Sorry but nothing you can do except be supportive. My ex had had so much bad luck in his life it was untrue, he genuinely believed he was cursed. At first I used to tell him it was just bad luck, he wasn't cursed at all, etc, etc, ,trying to reassure him. But as years went on and these things kept happening to him, I almost started to believe it myself. Maybe there's some truth in the saying that some people are born lucky... others must be born unlucky to balance things out? I dunno, it makes you think.

get a small box and put a picture of your friend in it. seal it tight and give it to them.
tell them it is a good luck charm inside, but that it is important that they should not open it until they have have a run of luck.
when they open it they will realise that they're not so unlucky after all !!!
it works but you have to make them believe in the contents of the box.

it depends on what bad look your friend is having. all you can do is be there as a friend when he needs sombody, i know you feel somtimes that you wish you could take the bad away but unfortunatly this is impossible, just be supportive and be a friend as when we have bad times our friends are the most important thing in life sound swithout you he would maybe have nothing.

i don't think anyone can control what happens to someone else in the journey of life no matter how close you may be to the person and how much you care about him, we can't even control our own out come no matter how much we think about a decision and make it ever so carefully... so i think as a friend you can only be there when he needs you and a shoulder to cry on....

tell him that theres no such thing as bad luck and anything that's worth having needs to be worked for, you aren't going to be handed it by 'luck' or chance
