So my ex gf just started talking to this new boy but he's mean to her should she break up with him

If your ex-girlfriend is in a situation where the new boy is being mean to her, it’s important for her to consider her well-being. Relationships should be based on mutual respect, kindness, and support. If she feels disrespected, hurt, or unhappy, those are signs that she should seriously evaluate the relationship.

Encourage her to reflect on how she feels and to consider talking to someone she trusts about the situation. Ultimately, the decision to break up is hers, but reminding her of her worth and the importance of being treated well can be helpful. If she decides to end the relationship, she should know that it's okay to prioritize her own happiness and mental health.

She's asking me if she should break up with him

If she's asking for your opinion, it’s a good sign that she values your perspective. You can support her by encouraging her to think about how she feels in the relationship. Here are some points you might discuss with her:

  1. How does she feel? Ask her how the relationship makes her feel. Does she feel happy, respected, and valued, or does she feel sad, anxious, or disrespected?

  2. Patterns of behavior: If he's consistently mean or disrespectful, that's a red flag. Encourage her to consider whether this behavior is likely to change.

  3. Talk it out: Suggest that she communicate her feelings to him. If he's open to discussing it and willing to change, there may be hope. If he dismisses her feelings, that’s a more concerning sign.

  4. Value of self-respect: Remind her that she deserves to be in a relationship where she feels safe, respected, and happy.

  5. Support system: Let her know that you support her decision, whatever it may be, and that she should prioritize her well-being.

Ultimately, it's her decision, and she should feel empowered to make the choice that's best for her.
