How to support a friend stuck in unrequited love

My best friend has been obsessing over someone who clearly isn't interested for over a year, and I'm exhausted from being her emotional support while watching her pursue something that's obviously not going to happen. I love her but I don't know how to be honest about what I'm seeing without seeming cruel or unsupportive.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Friendship is being strained by the tension between loyalty and truth when watching someone we love persist in hopeless pursuit.
