I'm very close with her, and im trying to help her with having a rough time with her fp. 

FP felt smothered by her a while back and the two of them agreed to spend a couple of weeks apart. This was just after he made friends with another girl and was spending a lot of time with her, so my friend felt cut off.

She felt devastated at the break but tried to use the time to get over him as an FP and have him just be a normal friend.

Now that we've all been back together for about a week she's feeling like he's still her fp and she's miserable still feeling neglected. She wants to stop him being her FP and just have him as a normal friend.

How can she do this and how can I help her?
