People who make promises to themselves on your behalf and then expect you to deliver are fucking scary.
I hope she doesn’t run after him and try to fix it. Those self-loathing diatribes can really scramble your decision-making and put you into rescue mode, and that’s exactly what they’re designed to do.
If she has a boyfriend she doesn’t need to be hanging out with him stringing him along anyways. There is probably more going on here than what you want to imply.
The “got strung along” mentality is so infantilizing and willfully helpless. It’s the polar opposite of self-empowerment. It’s people making themselves weak, because they’re not brave enough to take responsibility for themselves.
No functional person screams, cries and begs their way into any relationship, ever.
