Healing a Broken Heart

Thinking about you.
Wondering why I can't get over you.
Hoping, that you'll either like me back or I'll get over this.

Wishing that I had never fallen for you and we could just be a normal pair of friends.



Dealing with a broken heart isn't easy. Especially in the weeks after the "lets just be friends" speech. But, there are a lot of things out there that helps get over the pain and gets you on with your life.

-Go for a walk, visit friends who care about you.
Calling your friends to ask for support helps. There isn't 1 person on the planet that dosen't have some understanding of what a broken heart feels like. Let your friends help you, care for you, and give you support.

-Get a pet... you can love them unconditionally. No matter what, pets are a wonderful source of love. And with a broken heart, love is what you need.

-Try something new; take a class in something that you've been interested in. When going through grief, remind yourself that life moves on.
You have to move on to the next chapter of your life - explore new passions.

-And if you can't do much for yourself at the present time, maybe you could try helping others.
Do some volunteer work at a soup kitchen, your church, or even visit friends who are ill or in need. As soon as you help someone else, you aren't spending so much time with your own mind, and negative thoughts.


Though I enjoyed being loved by a girl for 2 weeks; instead of moping over a relationship gone wrong, all I can do is give thanks for those 2 weeks of happiness.

And as painful the situation might be, I have to remember to let my feelings be.
If I keep stuffing my pain, I will carry it forever.
Letting the sadness, hurt, pain, and anger wash over me will make it go away much faster.

Dealing with a broken heart is a painful, messy time. Even if you have dealt with break ups before, the end of each relationship is unique and requires a new plan for moving on.
Certain stages, such as being sad, being mad, and finally moving on are normal when dealing with a broken heart so embrace, rather than fight these developments.

The day you wake up looking forward to each new adventure is the day you'll realize that your heart has healed.
Don't rush to this conclusion, but have faith that it will come when it is supposed to.

Remember, as long as you learn from this experience, then nothing has been wasted!


Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened!

Every relationship is a life lesson; you've gotta learn why it ended and how you can fix it for the next one. It's also a step closer to the one you'll spend the rest of your life w/.
