[quote=Anonymous]Been there (as the one who was cheated on). Don't betray her confidence -- so no telling anyone else. Try to help her find a good therapist to help her understand her feelings and self doubt about choosing the right partners. Listen to her, let her vent, don't try to fix anything. Best advice is to tell her to take her time and that you will support her along the way -- even if she waffles back and forth on her plans. I would also suggest that she join the Great Beginnings support group. They are a group for recently separated or divorced people (and you don't have to be separated yet to join). They provide really helpful advice and a group that she can discuss her situation with in a very non judgmental fashion. They have meetings in DC, VA, and MD. Reach out to her every so often and suggest an activity that you can do together. It was hard for me to want to see anyone while I was going through such a tough time.[/quote]
