What should i do?

what should i do,when my friend is having problems with her moms new boyfriend.He trys 2 act like her dad,but she won't really talk 2 me or any one at all,and we are best friends.

Answer:
The best thing you do to help your friend right now is to be just that; her friend.

She needs all the support she can get from you right now. This is a really hard time for her, trying to adjust to this new person in her life. You didn't say wether her biological father was still alive, still in her life, etc, so it's hard to get a true understanding of her situation.

It sounds as though your friend is hurting pretty badly though, as she is having major issues dealing with her feelings of loyalty to her dad, and resentment towards this man who is pushing himself into her life too quickly and going about it the wrong way.

Just be there for her, she's been hurt and possibly abandoned once before, the last thing she needs now is for you to leave her as well. When she feels ready, she'll talk.

Good luck.
You probably aren't hearing thew whole story so for you to go asking for advice is needless. If your friend is really having trouble dealing with it maybe she could talk to her biological father about it and have him talk with mom and the new boyfriend and then they could all work out some common ground and find out what the parenting roles should be as far as disipline etc etc.
All you need to do right now is just be her best friend. Maybe have her spend the night a little more to get away from home and have fun. If you grow really concerned talk to her mom or yours if your more comfortable. Your mom should have some good options for you to help her through this. She may also have an easier time opening her up. If this happens it's not because your friend don't like you or so on. It's just easier to talk to an adult sometimes. If this doesn't work, just stick by her. Right now she will need you more than ever.
I HATE PEOPLE LIKE THAT.
Sorry I don't use that word "hate" lightly, but a "boyfriend" has ZERO business trying to act like a dad to the child of his girlfriend. I don't know much you can do since her mother is the main culprit for allowing it. Just keep up being a good friend, make sure she knows that if she is being abused in any way she needs to tell someone, ANYONE.
