Girl I like seems to be going off the rails

There is this girl that I've liked for ages, when I first met her I found out she was in a very serious relationship (she had twins with the guy she was with). Anyway they separated and I told her that I liked her but she kind of knocked me back but I carried on talking to her anyway in the hope that something would happen. I spoke to her for the last time a few weeks ago and again she knocked me back so I've not spoken to her since.

That's the background, anyway in the past few months she seems to have gone off the rails. She made some new friends who I think are a bad influence on her, she is always out drinking and never seems to look after the kids anymore and she is hanging around with this guy who seems like a right a***hole. She has also neglected her oldest friends who she has known since she was a kid and they are worried about her too and think her new friends are a bad influence and don't like this new guy she's hanging around with.

I still like but I don't know if I should do anything. What should I do?

Why are you interested in her when she already has children AND isn't even interested in you.

Come on dude

Way too much baggage here. She doesn't even sound like one of the sweet nice ladies with kids who were ditched by the good for nothing baby daddy and that's why they're in the position they're in today.
She just sounds like a headache on legs tbh

I don't think thats the biggest problem right now. But anyway when I met her I didn't know she had kids and when I found out she did have kids I wasn't that bothered because of how much I like her.

You should grow a pair and move on.

Accept that she doesn't want your efforts and move on. You cannot help her and you never will be able to.

"Don't save her, she don't wanna be saved."

Male shaming. Calling the baby daddy good for nothing merely because he is male and you think you can get away with it.

Not anymore

Thing is when I first met her she was one of the "sweet nice ladies" and she said her and her fella just drifted apart. Maybe now I'm starting to see why.

Maybe she doesn't want my efforts but I feel like I can't sit around and do nothing. Her oldest friends are even worried about her and they're asking me a guy who has only known her for a few months to try and help.

They actually asked you to help her? I'm not sure I believe you
try to make her jealous... you too hang out with other friends 'girls' you have and check if that has any impact on her. if yes then you have a chance and if nothing happens then leave her. old strategy but gold.

Just move on, it is clear she is not interested in you, harsh reality but I am afraid that is the truth.

Maybe not help but theyre worried about her and they dont like this guy she's seeing and are asking if I'm still messaging her.

If she's blown you out you cant really do much. Plus adults have the right to make foolish choices. All you can really do is tell her you're there for her if she wants you.
Damn bro she must be a straight 10 out of 10 if your actually putting up with all that

Mate. This is a girl who has repeatedly told you she's not into you. Take a hint she's not interested. Don't keep hassling and following.
And if even her closest, oldest friends can do nothing, there's not really much more you can do.

Let her go and move on. She'll get a wake up call eventually, or one of her long-time acquaintances will sort her out. Do as the others said: say you're there for her, leave it in her court, and get on with life. Sounds like she's had a rough start to things and needs time and space to figure things out.
