How can we help?

[BifsWif]

My husbands best friend is going through a marriage break up. His wife had been having an affair, although this has only come to light since the split a month ago, and new man has since moved into their home. They have 3 DC's under 10.
My husband is understandably worried for his friend and wants to be there for him, but he isn't sure how. He contacts his friend every day, but sometimes feels like he's bugging him?

Please, if you have been through something similar can you tell me things that your friends did/didn't do that really helped you? Thank you in advance .

I think what would help is your dh offering to go for a few beers or maybe inviting him round for dinner just to fill the gaps on an evening.

Other than that and what your dh is doing I don't think there's much else you can do.

What he is going through is one of the most awful things life can throw at is but ultimately he will need to come to terms with it on his own. Time is the best healer.

Thanks for your response quitelikely, DH is doing just that. They are going for beers this week, and we have asked him found for tea tomorrow so hopefully that will help a bit.

this happened to a friend pf dps.

we invited him round for dinner. he stayed for 3 weeks (him and his dog)

he needs company, feeding, beers and generally looking after.

poor guy. he needs his friends around him.

you both sound like good people

Thank you namesnick, we're just trying to be there for him but don't want to get it wrong and make things worse!
