My friend's ex

yea the guy's a dog.i don't know how you can tell her though. With my friends, we're all outright honest to each other so it's never a problem. if she stops speaking to you because you tried to help her then she's not great of a friend either. I find it hard to believe when someone can take a jerk over a good hearted friend's advice. Major things to point out to her if you do decide to talk to her:

-If it didn't work out the first time, it never will.i personally learned this one the hard way

-"if the new girl doesn't work out, hey! I'll go back to you! Good ole back up!" this is what it sounds like to me.he's a player and is entirely disrespectful. He's using this poor girl as a last resort whenever he can't stick with someone he deems better and he knows very well she'll take him back too.

Tell her about the response you got on here. if she doesn't believe you, maybe she'll believe a completely unbiased view from a total stranger. I mean it because if she were my friend, I'd tell her to run away and don't look back from him. She's too young to worry about this fool. I can speculate she probably feels he's her ideal and she won't find another and I thought that way too but it's not true at all. She's got more time than she thinks to find a guy who will treat her right and she needs to place this Casanova right into the garbage.

I hope my honesty has not offended you because I do wish to advise you on your question in the most honest manner. Good Luck.
