    Yes defo. Over the summer I split with a girl I thought was gonna be with for a very long time. However, we split over a daft matter that I said would happen if I competed (wanted to pull out of comp) and said no. Was heart broken for months.

    However during that time a friend came into my life and she helped me thro the pain and you know what? She has become the love of my life. Things I never thought it possible to receive in a relationship are mine on a daily basis and I get so much love, care, attention and respect that it makes me well up when I think about it.

    There is defo life after heartbreak. And it will be even better - you'll see!

    Well is there? :o( What's it like to move on

    of course, time heals all wounds. it really does.

    intense feelings and emotions will fade.

    given enough time, all that will remain are your fond memories, no matter how much the breakup may have hurt at the time.

    is that a The Smiths song? sounds like a The Smiths song. :huh:

    maybe written on one of Morrissey's happier days.

    Of course there is.

    Go get yourself a haircut. Work the hell out at the gym and get that anger out.
    Enjoy life.

    It's a step by step day by day thing... but you'll get there. And you'll be MUCH happier.

    Definitely!

    I went through an awful breakup in my early 20s. We were talking marriage and kids and everything and he cheated and married the other woman. I didn't eat for two weeks (great for my figure! lol) and cried and couldn't sleep and had to take an incomplete in one of my college classes. It was TERRIBLE.

    Even two years after the breakup, I had moments where I would just cry all day.

    But looking back? I realize how much better I am without him. He had a horrible, meddling, nasty mother and he cowtowed to her. He cheated. He was terrible for my self esteem. I've dated many men since then and have been living with the current BF for eight years.

    It takes time. You'll be depressed for a while. And then one day you'll wake up and feel just fine again.

    Of course not. Life after heartbreak? Your heart is broken, no one wants a broken heart to take care of.

    Now, seriously....

    As cliche as it is, TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS.

    I read that as "life after breakfast"

    Either way, the answer is yes.

    Absolutely. I've gone through hell and back having lost my bride. I thought the worst, but now know better.

    It's not something I'd like to experience for another 50 years, but I can tell you this...look at what life has been able to teach. seek the lessons, grow stronger mentally and emotionally.

    Remember to NEVER compare...

    I have been single for three years myself so I am rusty if anything on this topic, but I would say yes, that there is life after heartbreak. I'd go far enough to say it is largely what we make of it.
    This.

    Yes, there definitely is. Heartbreak tends to lead to something better in the end. It may hurt now, but it won't hurt near as bad when you find someone that is twice the man that he was. Just have fun and it will come.
