    All of us guys are ****s. Bottom line. No if's,and, or buts. With that said, you have an amazing smile. And falling down a few times only makes it easier to get up again

    Do it. When my first boyfriend and I broke up after 2.5 years I probably didn't leave my room for 2 weeks, all I watched was SATC and I lost 10lbs. And you know what? I don't regret it at all! Because the best way to get through something is to go through it. If you skip, it'll hurt later. We've all been where you are right now! And if we haven't, we probably will be. You'll make it through it(:

    Do it! (sad film/music optional)

    Then let your friends help you dust yourself off, get a new look (everyone I know seems to do this on breakups!) and get back to enjoying life.

    I disagree with the bloke who said all guys are *****. Just like races, religions, etc etc there will always be SOME nasty people and LOTS of lovely people and that goes for the sexes too! One day you'll meet someone wonderful and be thankful for the lucky escape but these things take time so for now its fine feel wounded but don't forget to work your way back to fabulous, because I'm sure you are!

    Big hug!!! xxxxx

    I went though a bad breakup a few months ago and am only just getting over it. Don't bury the pain, don't rush getting over it. Remember than in dealing with this, you're becoming stronger. Land on your feet, not your face. Hold your head high and take the high road, maintain your self respect. But find shoulders to cry on, pray, journal, rage, feel those emotions. You will learn and grow from this. You will learn new things about yourself. And eventually, you'll get the chance to fall in love once more :)

    I have been through some horrible times in my life, the only thing I have learnt is .....Nothing ever last for ever. Pain, grief, suffering, hunger, anything. Cry and move on.

    I know exactly how you feel! :( Tonight was rough as my boyfriend of one and a half years and I decided to "take a break" meaning I don't really see this break ending anytime soon. I'm sure I'll be in bed all day tomorrow crying my eyes out. I was glad to stumble upon this post tonight and read everyone's encouraging words about feeling the emotionsand coming out stronger in the end. It was much needed on my part tonight as well...

    It may not feel like it now but in time things will get better. I'm sorry to hear the news and hope the times goes quickly for you! Hugs to you! :)

    seriously, go out and be with your friends. don't take more than a couple of days, or a couple hours each day for longer. distractions work wonders, being alone and crying gives you too much time to stew over it. if you do stew....remember to get mad.

    And you must, if you are to recover. And don't move on too quickly. When my heart was broken, I set a time every day to address the issue fully and to write in my journal all those thoughts and feelings. I did it for an hour every day for many weeks- and then a few times a week for many months. I knew I would not be able to live and love again if I didn't do that.

    Nothing wrong with crying. So cry. Watch a sad movie (my default recommendation is La Vie En Rose). Go shopping if you have extra money and buy yourself something nice just because. Listen to The Last Five Years cast recording (no, seriously). Curl up with a pet, if you have one, and take a nap. Remind yourself that in time, everything will be fine, and you'll survive, one day at a time, and eventually, it will stop hurting. But for now, don't be afraid to hurt. "It's supposed to hurt. That's how you know it meant something."

    I've been there and the best thing to do is let it out, it may take awhile. WHen I went through it there were days that I was fine, then something would happen and I thought about him and I would be a mess, but every day will get better and better... big hugs sweetie!!

    I was in your place 3 months ago sweetie.
    IT DOES get better, I promise you.

    I never thought I'd be able to live without him, and I am.
    I still get people asking me "Where's Steve?" and now I laugh when I tell them what happened.
    The pain goes away... Not completely (at least mine hasn't) but you can live your life happily.
    I can look at pictures of us without crying now, I haven't even deleted them... Because I did have some good memories with him, but he wasn't for me and it didn't work out.

    There will be someone for you!

    Plus I love being more independent and doing whatever I want.

    The only BAD thing is how weird it feels kissing new guys. It's hard to get used too! LOL! Oh and sleeping alone does kinda suck, but I sleep better now haha.

    Cry your eyes out.
    Talk to someone who will listen.
    Pick yourself up.
    Spoil yourself! Getting my hair done did it for me, I felt new!

    You'll feel better! <3 This isn't the end of the world.
    It may even happen again. I know that I am SO MUCH stronger now after it too.
