she has but, everytime that person comes around or calls it brings her down. She has been unsuccessful in meetng other guys. She always has a look of distress on her face and she takes on her mother's sister's and brother's problems. She hardly looks at the positive side of things & I told her that she really should, because it might help. She recently was diagnosed with a medical condition and has been told by several dr's that it is NOT life threatening and her stressing about it makes it worse. She insists that she is NOT depressed, but it is obvious to everyone that she is. Is there a ritual to help her leave her bad realtionship behind and open herself up to a new and better relationship. She has hooked up with 2 different guys at different times and I tell her to let the guys make all the moves, she wants to cook for them & invite them everywhere. This last guy, I thought was gay because they went to a party (both been drinking)he spent the night & didn't try to kiss her

Duh, it wasn't the guy that she was with for 8 yrs that didnt even kiss her - it was a guy that she is or was now interested in!! They have gone out a few times, and that is not the only reason that I thought he was gay. IF he knows that she is interested in him and he is in his mid-30's and he goes to her house and brings his friend "Donny" along! His friend "donny" seems to show up alot.

You can't put a spell on her, but I would try to get her into a workout class a couple of nights a week at least, or bowling team, vollyball, soft ball,,something physical and fun and scheduled. Excersize will work wonders for depression.
A total body cleanse could release toxins and make anyone feel better. Accupuncture can do the same if done by someone who knows what they are doing. The cleanse is less costly - health food stores.
You cannot make someone be happy. She sounds like a 'fixer' (taking on other peoples problems). That can be a real downer since most times, there is not much one can do. This makes a person feel like a failure. You can't fix her either. Just help if you can. Accept her as she is if you can't.

Loosing an 8 years relationship hurts. She might be anxious and depressed. But that's normal. What happens when someone you love dies? First most people cry. Then for a time you feel very sad. But as time goes by, sadness decreases, until - even you'll never forget - you get normal again. That's what she needs. Time.
A small detail. You may know things that you don't tell in your question. But supposing a guy is gay, just because after 8 years of relations he didn't kissed the girl he finally left, it's quite a mistake. He didn't kissed her because he didn't loved her any more.

they can be made, but thay must be custom tailored to the person and the situation. and she has to really Want it to get better. many people fall into a depression, and after that they WANT to be depressed. i was this way for a while.
sorry, but without knowing your friend and every detail of the situation there simply is not much that i can do. there are several rituals that are designed to bring positive energy into a person's life and home. one of these may help.

i know it must be hard watching your friend go through this. 8 years is a long time together and it will take a long time for her to get over it. right now she needs to concentrate on herself, if you can take her and watch a movie, get a make over, something that focuses on her. right now even though she doesn't see it she is going through a depression, getting medication from her doctor can help but ultimately she has to be the one to say that it stops here and she is going to move on with her life until then do your best to encourage her ie) try new things, do something that she normally wouldn't do. hopefully she will realize that she can make it on her own.
good luck!

Well personally speaking from my own experiences she just might like to be a martyr...some people get pleasure from this...ritual I don't know but how about traveling or changing her geography? How about avoiding this person all together? Why is he even still around her life?

confident you are able to, yet I ought to admit the phobia you have may be a extensive stumbling block. Your husband cheated on you and you're afraid to coach him your authentic emotions considering you think of he might leave. yet precisely those authentic emotions are needed for him to renowned and journey the implications of his habit. while somebody cheats 3 issues might take place: -The cheater feels remorseful staggering away. in basic terms understanding what he did is sufficient to make him experience undesirable. His own experience of right and incorrect is eating him up and he's left with purely be apologetic approximately. (this individual maximum probable will in no way cheat lower back) -The cheater feels in basic terms approximately no be apologetic approximately. He finds a thank you to justify his strikes and keeps. (this individual can nevertheless replace while he's located out and he can see how plenty harm his strikes has led to contained in the marriage and how plenty soreness he's inflicting his companion) the completed be apologetic approximately gadgets in later, yet he does experience in charge and ashamed and starts to be apologetic approximately his strikes, there is a extraordinary danger he might in no way cheat lower back. If there are no longer any outcomes to his habit because of the fact the companion in no way found out or is afraid to coach her authentic emotions, he will maximum probable cheat lower back while there is yet another danger because of the fact the little be apologetic approximately he felt on my own isn't adequate to cut back back from those circumstances. -The cheater feels in basic terms approximately no be apologetic approximately. he will justify his strikes and is caught up contained in the 2nd. If he's located out he feels sympathy yet there is not any authentic be apologetic approximately. the subsequent danger which will practice itself, he will cheat lower back. No-one is conscious how plenty be apologetic approximately your husband extremely feels and the place he stands, yet considering he persevered with telephone intercourse after the 1st time he had intercourse with that woman, it would not look as though he felt very remorseful in the beginning. He stumbled on a thank you to justify. while you're too afraid to coach your authentic emotions how will he learn? plenty Love, desire all is going properly and you have fulfillment with the counseling.

yeah i agree totally gay!! The first step is making her see that there is a problem. If she won't realize that there is a problem then she can't fix it. That will probably be the hardest part. 8yrs is a long time....it will definitely take a while to get over that.

So is your friends a goddess or a wood elf? Because otherwise I can't picture any part of this in the folklore or mythology section.

Give her time. 8 years is a long time to give yourself to someone and then to have it end. It's like undoing 8 years in a short time.
Just give her moral support and just encourage her. She will eventually get through it.
