I need some help from the girls!

Look I'm not going to lie I am a dude with no exprence with this but I guess I'll take a crack at it

Don't shower her with gifts as then it'll look like you have no idea what to do and buying something is an easy way out. The neckless is fine, just not hoardes of stuffed animals

Also be sure you let her know you are there for her. Through think and thin. And she can always come to you if anything bad happens. Also if she doesn't like that she's ebing used for just some sob story, be sure to give her space. Last think she would need is someone throwing a wrench into the whole mess

Dude here.
I agree with a majority of the people that have posted here. After you make sure she knows that you're there for her when she needs/wants you, let it be and give her some space. She'll get back to you when she's willing to talk about things. Until then, yeah just let her be. It's about all you can do without risking annoying her into an argument and/or breakup.

I am a man.

small bit of advice. don't try to make her laugh, it can come across as "cheer the fuck up your bumming me out" The best thing to do is be a bit neutral and let her say what she wants to say. If she says she's ill and doesn't want to talk just say "ok if you need anything from the shop just let me know" You doesn't need you to be there for her, she just needs to know that you CAN be there. If you ken my meaning.

Tough call. I was the same way awhile back when my father died and my bf at the time tried to be there for me but I just didn't want to see anyone. Then we broke up XD

I'd plot how to manipulate her parents for most financial gain.

That would cheer me up.

I'd recommend that you don't ask for girls on the internet, there are none. Also just go round and talk to her in person.

"waves at Tehpwnsauce and points at boobs" Hi!!! Girl on the forum, don't die of shock.

Topic wise- If you have already let her know that you are there for her and she can reach you anytime, just give her some space to figure things for herself out. She will get back to you when she is ready to talk.

That could make you just a very fat man?

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

I'd give her space. Let her come back on her own.

 

[Aesir23]

As many others have probably said, just give her some space and let her figure some things out on her own for a bit. But let her know that you're there for her and that you care about her.

Hiiii! Lyke Ohmahgawd I cannot believe that he'd suggest that? I mean really. Tsk. Some people.

This is not a Boys' Club.

*ZOMFG there's more than one! It's an invasion!*

/sarcasm

OT: IMO I think it's best that you be there for her as much as you can. That way she has a shoulder to lean/cry on. However if she wants some space then give her some room to breathe, yet still be within reaching distance in case she needs a hug.

But what do I know? I'm apparently something that doesn't exist in cyberspace.

EDIT: *points at Tehpwnsauce* We do exist. We are here. And we don't like it when you say we aren't.

Apparently girls are mythical figures in cyberspace. Very much akin to a minotaur in real life. And yet, I am a girl and am using my computer to access the internet. It's shocking! O_O

I'm male (you probably guessed) and I need some help from the girls on the escapist, cause they will probably understand the situation more.
Basically, my girlfriends parents are talking about splitting up, and shes devastated. She doesn't want to leave the house to see anybody, and she's not replying to texts or emails.
I feel like it's my duty to cheer her up, but nothing seems to work. I've sent her a present (a necklace), and a note saying how much i miss her and how important she is to me, and wrote some stuff in the note that usably makes her laugh and we joke about.
But shes still just blocking the rest of the world in her room.
What do you reckon I should do? Should I give her some space? Or what would you recommend?
Thanks to anyone who helps.

Although I am not a chick, I would like to give my 2 cents on this. It doesn't matter who you are, if you parents split up, you are screwed, period. Your life is now hell, and evey holiday is going to suck forever as you try to make it to both parents. There really isn't anything you can do to make her feel better short of just talking to her about it. She needs time to grieve and figure this all out. Don't feel bad, its not you, its her... her parents at least..
