<p>My advice is to let your d know you are there for her, but then leave her alone and let her handle her sadness in her own way. When my d was in that situation last summer, she really didn’t want any extra attention from me - she preferred to talk things over with her friends during sleepovers or girls’ nights out. Although part of me was sad that she didn’t want me involved, I was glad that she had a great network of support to help her get through that difficult period.</p>
<p>Also, Corrange made an excellent point by suggesting that you do not speak negatively about d’s ex. She is so right in saying that there is a chance the couple will get back together - that is exactly what happened with my d and her bf. They were actually apart for well over a month before getting back together - but I am so grateful that I never said anything bad about the bf while they were split up. That could have made things awkward.</p>
