and i'm seriously worried about my friend's state of mind, all of her close friends are. We really need to do something to help. Any advice welcome however big or small, please help.
Answers: If you're in fear of her actually confronting him and being rejected, then you can imagine how much more intense that fear must be for her. Perhaps you can act as a liason between the two without letting her know - just in case he's not willing to be with her again.
Maybe it would be best if you were honest with him, and asked him if he has any respect, care, empathy and/or compassion for your friend then he can approach her and either tell her that he does have feelings for her, or that he would rather maintain a friendship and nothing more. Honesty is always the best policy. It would be better coming from him, as if you were to tell her "hey, he's not into you anymore at all" then that puts you on the - y'know, bad list! Whereas you seem to be a number one supporter of what she has as a support group (friends), you don't want to push her away from you.
One thing that comes to my mind after reading the other post is the potential of danger - there are way too many red flags out there already, and she needs to obtain help now in coping with the loss of this guy in the event that he wants nothing to do with her. If you read up on symptoms to watch for when you think someone is contemplating suicide, and you happen to see too many red flags, then please involve either her mom or her dad or both, whichever would be the best support group for her.
One thing I've stated to people throughout the years is "suicide is a *permanent* solution to a *temporary* problem".
You and your friends may even be best off making plans to go out, get active in sporting activities, hiking, yoga, meditation, or whatever it will take to change where her mind is at now. It's a very tough and touchy situation, anything any of you may say or do could be misconstrued. I don't envy your position right now, I've had my share of pulling my friends out of the ditches of life and it's no easy task.
Best of luck to you all!
