Thanks for your advice Illusional. I suppose you're right. I've only talked semi-about this once before and she expressed how friends was all she wanted. But its hard to accept when I have so much on my end. I realize I should probably tell her how I feel and it's hard to work up to it. And I still don't know [i:5d8ac3da00]when[/i:5d8ac3da00] I should bring it up. She called me this afternoon telling me that she's now "official" with this new guy she's been seeing. Which confuses me because she doesn't really like him and he treats her very badly. Half of my nights I spend trying to console her and trying to get her to stop crying. She's still confused about something about it but it's hard to get it out of her. I also want to tell her than the kind of situation she's in with him is a bad one. She knows that but I don't think she knows she has other options. I hate to get on here and sound so needy, but I need just a little more help. When and where should I tell her all of what I feel, and how do I tell her how I want her to be happier than what this guy is giving her?

Thank you so very much for your time and your help.
