Cry

This is something that you are going to do at first, so just go ahead and cry. Get it all out. There is nothing wrong with crying. This is only you letting out your emotions. During this time, scream at the universe, sob along to sad movies or breakup songs, do anything to get it off of your chest…

Treat Yourself

Go shopping and have a manicure. Shopping and treating myself out always seemed to get those problems off of my mind. You do not have to buy much, if you do not have much money at the time, then just buy a simple outfit or a shirt that you think is cute. If you have some extra cash, then treat yourself out to your favorite restaurant. (Avoid any restaurant you went to on a date.)

Frequently asked questions

Avoid the Rebound

I know that it sounds like a good idea to try to substitute that relationship with another, but this is definitely not what you need. It will lead you to nowhere except even more hurt when you snap out of it and find that you do not like the “rebound” guy or girl. Save the other from being hurt…

Focus on Those Good Things

Surely there are good things that are going on in your life, so focus on that silver lining. Perhaps you are about to have a birthday party? You got a new car for your birthday? Whatever it is, focus on it…

Hug up on Your Pet

Do you have a pet? It is a known fact that pets help relieve stress. Hug up on your pet as that is what they are there for. Dogs sense when you are sad and will try their best to make you happy. Even if you have an iguana or bearded dragon, let him/her sit on your lap and talk. That’s right, those pets will listen to everything you have to say. I have found that pets are very good listeners…

Volunteer

Instead of sitting at home thinking about that lost relationship, go out and do good things for others. Volunteering at the local animal shelter, homeless shelter or anything else that helps someone would help to relieve that sadness that you have inside…

Get a New Hairstyle

This is a great tip for girls. This can include something as simple as a touchup or something as drastic as dying your hair. When you have done this, look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself that this is the new you and you have moved on…

Get Rid of ...

Any pictures of the ex boyfriend or girlfriend that you have. This way, you do not have to look at them ever again. If you want to be even more rebellious, then rip the picture up into little bitty places. Take your anger out as you are doing this. Tell yourself that when that picture is ripped up, you will move on…

Go out with Your Friends

Sometimes, going out with your friends and spending time with others is the best way to get over those breakup blues.

Be Cool

When you see your ex in the same room as you, act as if you do not care about the breakup. Don’t let him or her see that it is bothering you. In no time, this will come natural and you will find that you are completely over your ex.

What about you? What do you do during those breakup blues?

Indira, When I used to have my dog I did just like you. Even if they can' talk to us back I feel better hanging on to her and crying on her tummy. Poor dog used to understand me so much. It's like she knew cause she always stayed there liking my tears and wagging her tail. :)

Wow this was a really helpful post. Thank you so mcuh!!! It really brightened my day and I will definitely be trying a few of these ideas. Thank you!!!

Sheila, Of Course!! I'm sure he's out somewhere, and hope fully he will find his way to you soon! :) But in the mean time enjoy your self and get to know as many people as you can! :) A heartbreak is difficult and I think for us woman it's worse as we are more sensitive. But as you said time will wash away those agonies! But Never for a guy should we let ourselves down, life should continue with or without him. And i'm sure if a break up happens and we show him that without him we still are going on with our lives, if it's meant to be, eventually he will come back!

Well Mel, You hit every point there! Every girl who's going through a break up should really read this blog , cause it's really quite helpful. I used all of these through my break ups. First thing I cried so I got all the tention and sedness away, I hung on to my pet which I did most of my cryings with and never kept untidy meaning I always made my hair and still tried to look my best even if at that time nothing Mattered. And Most important I hung out with my best friends which thanks to them I passed those breakups. Pouring out all your troubles can help alot with a pearson at heart!!
