Question: how to cheer your best friend up after a breakup?
Answer: Ask what you can do to help, rather than assume you know what they need. ...  Help them take care of chores and tasks. ...  Be around to help them “reinvent themselves” ...  Take care of yourself throughout the process. ...  Minimize their emotions with trivializing statements. ...  Cut straight to the “silver lining” ...  Speak poorly about their ex.
