Let your friend worry about her relationship. Just be supportive by being a good friend, doing things you enjoy together, etc. If she wants to talk about her relationship tell her you're there to listen--but that's all. If all she does is talk about her relationship, you may want to consider developing other friendships that revolve around common interests and activities.

Stay completely out of it. Be there to listen to her but don't give her your personal opinion that has anything to do with the BF. It is funny how that stuff works. You have someone that comes to you with a problem that involves a bf/husband whatever and you want so bad to tell them to dump the idiot but you know in your heart that its not really what they want to hear.
Trust me, this is a no win situation. If you open your mouth, you could ruin your relationship with her even if you were/are right. So just be a good friend and listen and be a shoulder to cry on if you can tolerate it. Good luck to you and your friend. Hang in there!

Ahhh - follow her advice and butt out might be the best course of action. This is NOT your problem and she is the only one that should be making decisions about what is right for her. Just focus on your own life and let her deal with her bf.

Mind your damn business...
just be there to pick up the pieces when she needs you to be there. As a friend that is your role. If you get in the middle of the relationship, chances are you will ruin your friendship. Keep your opinions about her boyfriend to yourself, and just ride it out.

She'll realize it soon enough. Some parts of being a true friend are letting your friends fall on their face, (when you can't stop it) and being there to help them up again. I know you love and care about her, but some lessons have to be learned the hard way. Mind your business, like she asked, but be there for her when she needs you.

do exactly what she told you. butt out. let her make her mistakes. why do you feel a need to make something right that is none of your business. your suppose to be her friend not her therapist (plus she isnt paying you to fix it)
seriously are you going to put your friendship out on a limb just so you can fix something that she doesnt even want you to get involved with any ways?
if she doesnt want you in her business then get your nosey self out! how old are you anyways?

Just be there to support her, and for her, and if she needs advice or help she will let you know. Unless he is hurting her, proof of cheating or something concrete, she will figure these things out on her own, and you will be the one she turns to and says " you were so right about him" be patient, be there when she needs you or maybe he will straighten up

Tell her that only she knows best how to handle the situation - without being mean...
She penultimately has to make her own choice and you definitely don't want to be "blamed" for your advice which may go "bellyup"

She doesn't want you to be involved in her relationship. She can handle things on her own. Let her make her own choices. It's her life.

Listen to your friends and butt the **** out! It's HER relationship NOT YOURS. Let THEM handle it themselves
