Hello,

My son is in a piss-poor state right now. his girlfriend (now ex girlfriend of course) cheated on him with some d-bag and his heart is broken, he hasn't left his room in weeks other than to eat and he won't even talk to anyone. He just sits there and stares into his lap until I leave him alone.

I've never been cheated on as far as I know so I don't even know what to tell him to help him feel better. Any suggestions?

I don't know what to do anymore.
>>
Buy your son an expensive escort. Then, lecture him on the pros and cons of being a huge bleeding heart pussy. No wonder his girlfriend broke up with him. After that, slap in the face and tell him to man the fuck up.
>>
How old is he? Tell him to man up and give him "the talk" about never getting attached to a girl. Depending on how close you are to him bring him out to find another girl. If all else fails just force him to fucking lift.
>>
>>17294026
He's nearly 17. I guess that 'talk' would help but in his current state I doubt he'd listen. He already lifts, lol.
>>
>>17294024
Don't listen to this guy's autism, /r9k/ is cancer
>>
>>17294040
Don't listen to this guy telling you not to listen to me. If you want your son to be a pussy I suppose that's up to you. Then again, that's why he got left for some "d-bag" (read "real man").

Also, fuck you.
>>
>>17294045
"Real man"

Mate, she literally swapped sex for some coke with said d-bag. You don't know what you're talking about, she was fucking filth.
>>
>>17294056
>your son dates cokehead whores at 17

RUH ROH
>>
>>17294056
Dude, he needs to find some nice wholesome Christian girl. Especially since he's such a pussy. But seriously, he shouldn't be surprised when he gets cheated on by a drug addict.
>>
>>17294065
Yes, he was a dumb cunt but he obviously has learnt his lesson. What I want to do is get him to get outside and go back to school and stand against the fuckery that has happened to him.
>>
>>17294016
Give him a hug. Tell him you're there to listen if he wants someone to talk to, or to help him find someone else to talk to if that's what he needs.

And then step back. It's good that you want to help him, but this is something he has to figure out for himself.
>>
>>17294056
Sounds like your boy just couldn't give her what she needed. That's alright, this new guy will. He'll get her drugs, money, sex... so much better than your little man ever could do.
>>
what about his friends OP? what are they like? could they help at all?
>>
>>17294093
Thanks for the advice, but how long before it comes too long? I don't want him to become a NEET and start browsing /r9k/ as a hobby. His marks are good at school and he could go to uni if he gets his shit together
>>
>>17294094

hahaha come on man dont be such a cunt to op
>>
>>17294073
>Yes, he was a dumb cunt but he obviously has learnt his lesson.

oh nooooooo don't you dare think that for a second.

people operate in patterns. once he's gone after a girl like that once he will go after one again, trust me

for him to date a cokehead means he's involved in using coke, btw. people like that don't randomly find one another.
>>
>>17294099
I can't really get anyting out of him so I don't know what's going on with them really. His one friend came over to check up on him but he wouldn't talk to her and she went out in tears, fucking depressing shit

I want to contact his mates and maybe get them to take him out for footy or something, but I don't wanna be intrusive, you know what I mean?
>>
Are you Mom or Dad OP? It'll make a difference, at least it would to me. A guy isn't gonna listen to his mom telling him to nut up. If Dad take him out by doing something to take his mind off it like hiking, movie, food, etc and don't bring it up, if he wants to talk about it he will say something

If he has friends they'll help him get through it. Just give it time
>>
>>17294108
That's something I'll have to sort out when I see definitive proof. I asked him and he says he hasn't so I have to go on his word for now. He shows no signs of abusing coke.
>>
>>17294110

yeah i feel ya. why not offer to buy him a gift he wants really badly. 4chan really isnt the best place to get advice for something like this.
>>
>>17294016
OP. I know this is tough and you want to help, but he'll turn out better if he figures himself out himself. I was once that kid (didn't date a crackwhore but was a beta orbiter) and I pushed myself and became proud of myself because my parents took the chance of leaving me alone. This is hard I know, but please consider it.
>>
>>17294116
>middle aged mothers browse 4chan
>>
>>17294125
Oh, I know, but I can get quick results rather than contacting my dad or a therapist or some shit. I can pick out the trolls from here cause they're so fucking obvious and some people have probably been through what he's going through right now, so worth a shot.
>>
>>17294125
No don't buy him a gift this is a dumb idea.
>>
>>17294134
>>17294116
Yeah I'm a dad. His mum passed when he was six. I want to teach him how to drive, maybe I should get on that?
>>
>>17294134
I've seen it once before along with a 60 yo dude so you never know

>>17294145
Yeah that might work. I say go for it
>>
If I were you I would be worrying about the company your son's keeping more than his precious fee fees.
>>
>>17294118
>He shows no signs of abusing coke.

yes because you are his dad and he hides them from you. please do not forget how smart you were at 17, ok? people tend to think of everyone else as autonomous, stupid robots incapable of intelligence or deception.

After associating with a cokehead, order home drug tests. Wait for a night he goes out, drug test him the next morning.

People who do coke run with people who do coke. I'm not sure how much experience you have but I have plenty and I am telling you this FACT.
>>
>>17294162

hes probably not a cokehead but id say he's done it a few times. but i will say the kids in my highschool that did coke at 17 did not turn out to well. nice guys but the know i know now stays in his room all day smoking weed depressed.
>>
>>17294162
Again, he hasn't left the house in weeks. it'll be a while.
>>
>>17294162
I have to remind myself all the time other people are capable of thinking and figuring things out/guessing intentions.
>>
>>17294016

As a 20-something year old guy who's been in a lot of shitty relationships, I say you try and get it off his mind, it's the only thing you can do with this sort of thing.

If he wants to be left alone, leave him alone, but at the same time let him know you're there when he needs you.

He's your son, you should know what makes him happy, maybe something you two can do together (I sure wish my dad didn't become the bitter cunt he is, I want to do stuff like game with him like old times...).

Talking about cheating relationship stuff is not something I've ever found to help, because it's such a toxic thing that's shitty on all sides, just as long as your son understands she wasn't worth his affections for being so unfaithful and he eventually comes to accept that fact, and that he shouldn't let it affect his relationships with anyone else, then he's hunky dory.

>>17294195
dude, me too, 30 times a day and i didn't even fucking start doing it until i was like 28.

It's irrelevant to most of you, but what actually did it to me was the game Dota. I would attack people thinking "this guys shit, im gonna fucking wreck him" and then I would get wrecked because surprise the other guy can hit keyboard buttons too.

I realized I automatically underestimate EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN EVERYTHING I DO.
>>
I don't know if this will help but I feel better after watching some of this guy's videos

My girlfriend recently left me for my best friend.
Let him know he's not the problem, plenty of fish in the ocean yada yada
>>
>>17294016
Fuck your son.
>>
>>17294024
Tell him "Fuck that bitch"

Proceed to download the black phillip show, and the beige phillip show. He will learn a lot that way.
>>
>>17294016
Tell him to man the fuck up. Be harsh. Shit worse than this happens all the time in the real world.
>>
take him in nature and have a beer with him, preferably at sunset

talk openly

as a teenager, I understand that he feels like you don't "get" him, but he can change his mind

share some personal experiences with him and optimistically explain to him that what he's gone through is part of growing up.

sunset/nature can play an important role, because it makes the bond feel stronger
also, the beer doesn't mean anything per se, the fact that you share a beer with him can make him feel as if you're putting down the parent guise for an hour, to speak with him not as "dad" but as a human being that has experience, and that knows and loves him

this is just my opinion
best of luck mate
