    Chin up! Keep working hard. I know your pain. My boyfriend of 7 years left me ON my birthday in 2013. Trust it does get better. Here i am 2 years later with a new man and beautiful baby! Dont lose your progress over a man.

    You're too hot for him anyway - walk away with your head held high and find a man worthy of you.

    Oh I know how you feel. My boyfriend broke up with me 16 days ago. After having got each other presents and everything. Did it over a text message and I haven't heard from him since. Stay strong.

    Make a plan for how you're going to care for and comfort yourself, one day at a time. Time with friends who understand? Make a date with a buddy, for a walk or the gym? A new workout outfit? Watch that show he couldn't stand (nothing like taking yourself back, aggressively!!)

    Excess food's easy in the short term, but in the long term it hurts, and you've seen enough of that already -- don't give away your power and start hurting yourself too. All the best to you, you're not alone!!

    Did you keep the receipt for his Christmas gift? If so, take it back and get yourself something awesome and fitness related, and then go use it. Exercise is a great antidepressant.

    The problem is that I bought them already back in October, so the 28 days thing is long gone.

    You'll look back at this later and be glad he's gone. Sorry it hurts now, though. <3

    I remember dumping a girlfriend years ago on her birthday. I still feel bad about the way I handled that one...

    Donate it to a charity for them to regift or you can sell it.

    If it's unopened and you have a receipt, a lot of places are lenient on that policy. Usually they'll give you store credit or an exchange.

    Take this opportunity to plan your revenge.

    Get to your goals, be proud of yourself, feel like the sexiest woman alive, get dressed up all hot and sultry, go to where ya know he normally hangs out, and flirt in his face, and when he tries to chat you up again, as people like that always try, say, F you? no chance, my standards are high and you no where near meet them.

    Giggles...

    Revenge is a dish bittersweet, but I find it to my liking. :)

    i wish my husband would dump me... look at it this way... i may be cynical... better now than later when you realize you cant stand him but you are too entwined to make a clean break. ok yea im cynical.

    but seriously... if he hadnt, you probably would have figured out why you werent meant to be eventually and the outcome would be the same... just later. you have more time and freedom now to find someone who works better with you, instead of wasting your time with the wrong person thinking its right.

    Use his stupidity to your advantage, get that smoking hot body and healthy glow on girl :smiley: Dont let him spoil your goals. And when he comes crawling back, remember how you felt today, and tell him to stay away, you will be fighting blokes off with a stick anyway.
    I know there is never a good time to split, but seriously, this close to christmas! You dont deserve someone who would do that.

    why does everyone have to talk about revenge and stupidity? doesnt everyone have a right to choose who they want to be with?

    in my experience hate and revenge never made me feel better after a breakup.

    Eventually you will thank him for clearing out of your life so you have a chance to meet someone you are actually compatible with. Enjoy the holidays and time with your family, and take comfort in all the other things you have in your life. Stay strong, you are going to be just fine.
