Cheering up friends

[Sleepy Raisin]

Alright, so, i have a friend who is a girl and whenever i ask "Hows your life?" or "Hows your day goooin'?" Her response is always "Ok" or "Bad" or other things along that line. I mean i know why, its usually her boyfriend. So my question is, how can i cheer her up? Make her feel better?

[Desuetude]

Well, if it's nearly always the same answer that's always negative then you need to talk to her. I don't think there is anyway to "cheer her up" other than be there for her if she needs you. Ask her what's going on and if she needs anything but just don't leave her and let her know that she's got you if things turn to shit with her boyfriend. You're not giving us much information about what's going on in their relationship, you might get better answers if you add more detail?

The only thing i know about her relationship with her bf is that they've been on and off again A LOT

I agree you should be there for her. Erm right now it looks like you already are there for her since you're her friend and keep asking how she's doing.

Other than that, I don't know what more you can do unless you're willing to get into the nitty gritty and talk to her about her bf. Maybe you could ask why things are always crappy with her bf. I think that's the only way to cheer her up. Get to the root of the problem. Cause even if you take her mind off of it for a little bit, it looks like the bf is semi permanent in her life for now since they keep going on and off. After she tells u about her bf problems, just open yourself up as someone to talk to . Knowing someone is there for you when you're feeling bad is always a comfort.

I am not very good with asking girls stuff but its good you do and maybe she can be honest with you when to others she just has to smile and say things are ok when they are not. So its good you ask her. You maybe do make her feel better by asking - but I dont know what else to suggest, apart from maybe trying to ask some of her friends and you all go off and have fun - without boyfreind maybe she could have a girls night thing.

Be there and listen to her whenever she wants to talk about it. never push her to talk when she's not comfortable with it. as long as she knows you'll listen, she'll feel better about talking to you about it

Tell her she can trust you.. Let her have her pain out.

A lot of times people feel better after just venting their feelings; have you ever tried asking her why her day was so bad? Maybe she will feel like telling you. IF she seems reluctant to get into details don't push it or anything, but maybe just repeat the answer she gives you - like if she says her day is 'bad', then just be like, "Badddd?" and she might open up.

Hahaha
And yes i try all the time but she usually just says "idk" in other words that means something happened with her and her boyfriend.

Although her response the other day was "good!" :D so that made me very happy! She had a 'talk' with her bf so for now, we may have better days
