Advice for friend whose DP left her

I'm feeling a bit useless at the moment, so any and all advice is welcome.

My best friend's DP left her 2 months ago, literally came home (they have a house together), packed his things and left. She rang me in tears, saying he'd gone and that he didn't want to come back and that he was staying at his parent's house.

I went down for a few days to hold the fort, clean the stinking kitchen and calm her down. It turned out he hadn't been very happy in the relationship, didn't really want to be in one and was very stressed with work.

Now, this was 2 months ago. Since then, they have met up a few times a week to "sort things out", she keeps saying she wants answers and that he's not giving them.

Am I being very unreasonable to think that she's not going to get those answers? And that he clearly doesn't love her any more, and that she should get the house on the market and split the sale, instead of hoping he'll come back which he hasn't made any moves to do so as of yet?

Or.. am I a mean mean bitch?
