Is it right...?
To rip the still beating heart out of a dear friends chest, then procede to kick the shit out of, spit on and otherwise defile said heart, metaphorically speaking of course, in order to prevent said friend an even worse fate later on? Or should one just let fucking morons be fucking morons?

that post reminded me of when bart simpson gets his heart broken, and the girl literally grabs it out of his chest , proceeds to exclaim "you won't be needing this" , and throws it in the garbage.
It was a great literal translation of how you feel when that happens. |

It's so hard to see your friends getting into bad situations, it's like you know you're watching a car crash in slow motion.
I have a pretty hard time telling my friends what to do, or even interfering....unless they ask me differently. People learn from mistakes, and they also become stronger. Sometimes you need to let them do this...unless there's a real danger involved. |

Okay in all seriousness...is what they're about to do something that will physically harm them? Are they walking into a situation completely oblivious as to what is going on....like i mean do you have information that they do not have access to that, if told this information, might sway their decision? |

That's a tough one, Robyn. Even if you did say something to him, would he believe you? I think in a situation like this it is best to let things take their natural course and then just be there for him as much as you can if something does happen.
It's hard to keep your hands out of things sometimes, i know exactly how you feel (I have a little sister), but i've learned from experience that it is best to let fate move where it's supposed to go. |

Ok, well in that situation you have sibling privilege.
Seriously, if my brother hates a guy I'm dating, he lets it be known! And you know what? He's always been right about his bad feelings about people. I love him so much and value his opinion on so many things, especially matters of the heart. But how do you know he's definitely going to have his heart broken again? Because you know something is going on? Or just because it's happened before? |

But he's just being so blind and stupid! Fuck, it drives me crazy!
edit- Way to outpost me myra! I know she's just going to dump his ass as soon as she goes back to school because she's told pretty much everyone in her circle of friends just that. It's very high school, the whole thing. And I don't have REAL sibling privledge, as he's just one of my adoptee brothers I aquired, being an only child and all.

Is he younger than you? We were all blind and stupid when we were young, but we had to learn that way! (although I am still young, and do have a lot to learn..) |

I wouldn't mess around with any of it if you can't prove anything, love makes everyone blind and he probably won't believe especially if she is coniving and manipulitave if you can prove anything then fine if not if can only make things worse. THe best thing to do is jsut be there for him later.

Even though the concerned member peaced it out, Ill weigh in here really quick. You see me droogies, its all well and good to want to protect someone from pain and heartbreak, but I think its GOOD to get kicked in the nuts once in a while. It keeps you on a level head, it makes you realize that people are disshonest, bastardish and unpleasent and that love, life and friendships dont always last and have happy endings. One should try their best to make things work, but if it is some predetermined state where she was going to kick him in the nuts AGAIN then perhaps it is best he learns a second lesson, and can finally stop doing whatever it is he is doing that makes him get hurt.
