Alexis Dealing with something harsh at the moment and I must say #10 is really refreshing. Yes, I did not find anything at first but decided to double check and lo and behold, I am a wonderful, strong, beautiful individual (still adding to the list) 7/21/2008
Cinnamon i would just like to say thank you . your advice has helped me understand many things, and has helped me work on getting over my recent break up with my fiance of 2 yrs. thank you 6/8/2008
meh i broke up with my bf 2 weeks ago, he just told me that he still love his x even weve been together for 2 years! he said he has to move on first with his x before entering another relationship, what a sh*t! until now were still living together with our friend since i have no choice but to live there for a while coz i have no family, no friends here at the city. it is for "pain over safety". i just wished the feeling will die at sudden death. 6/4/2008
babii bear what should i do if one of my friends is still in love with her ex but he desnt love her and they have both cheated on each other and they talk about each other non stop and they both ask me for advice and i havent even been in alot of relationships my self? 6/3/2008
pinktiger this is really great. i recently had a very bad break up. he told me that he does not love me anymore and he has found someone else, probably because we are far from each other. i felt so bad, i can't believe it at first because we've been in the relationship for more than three years and the break up was so abrupt. this article made me feel better, now i realized that its not me... its him. thanks again. 6/2/2008

Mitta Xinindlu On top of everything you sad, I'd like to say that one should tell one's self that if you gave your best into the relationship, it is just not worth your time at all and it's not your fault it didn't work out. Set a limit for your self, the period you should grieve for it. When you have reached the last day, forget about the person and move on. Besides there's a whole lot of fish out there (just beware of the sharks), hey! 5/26/2008
Morelia Great tips! I break up with my 2 years boyfriend about a month ago and I can't stop thinking about it. I was the one with the idea because the relationship was fuc*ed up!!! We were fighting all the time for stupid things. But the truth is I still love him like hell... but, I don't want to go back, not now!

What it hurts me is that he took it very well, he wanted to break up too but didn't have the guts... He has a lot of friends right now and is hanging out like crazy (he even like that)... Meanwhile I spent the worst Spring Break of my life crying and asking WHAT HAPPENED TO US? WHY WE STOP LOVING EACH OTHER? WHY? WHY?

Anyway, I go to see a therapist because I didn't want to stay like that (semi depression) for a long time... All I want is to gain back my self-steem, build more confidence and be outspoken! The only person in the world who can help me to get through this is my best friend... and she is in Europe for 6 months... So here I am, all by myself (with a couple of friends but without trusting anyone), trying to get through this situation and learning a life lesson the hard way.

I don't regret my decision, even those days when I feel like shi*t. I'm certain that sooner or later I will move on, everything is going to be normal again and my feelings for him will fade away... I just can't wait for that day!!!

Jane Sadly, I found you through this article and not another joyous one. However, you are absolutely correct. I don't know if you still write anymore or not, but please, don't stop!
You're right in the "10 ways to prevent a break up" Rule number 1 and most importantly: Communication.
You're right, and you've helped, thank you.
