User post: Forget Him! A Happy Again Breakup Guide

It's always depressing when someone decides they don't want you anymore.  You feel sick, worthless and really crappy.  When someone stops the love, here's how to deal...


A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words...
If you have a picture of him, this works very well...you could also use any doodles of him, and/or papers with his name on it. For the sake of example, I'll say picture.

Step One-Rip up the picture into small pieces.
Step Two-Put all the pieces into a small cup of water.
Step Three-Wait till all the water dries up (this may take a while)
Step Four-When all the water dries up, the cup is an "EVIL cup" (Ok, not really but just pretend. And make sure the cup is paper) Now you must BURN IT!!!! Burn the picture remains!
Step Five-Take the ashes from the picture, put it in the street and watch all the cars run them over.

Also try...
*Movie marathons
*Singing REALLY loudly...out the window, to annoy the neighbors
*Sad poems
*Listening to sad songs for a week...then happy ones (that don't involve love)
*Makeovers!
*A little retail therapy never hurts. Notice I said A LITTLE!
*Get all you girls together and have a boy-bashing-prank-calli ng-all-the-cute-boys sleepover!
*Start fresh for a while...Just ignore boys and pretend that they are just lower life forms (Treat them for what they are;D)
*Time...lots of time...and some ice cream too.

Forget Him!  How To Feel Better in a Week (From Girl's Life Magazine)

Day One:Meltdown Monday
How You Feel:Heinously Heartbroken
How To Deal: Wallow In you misery-for a really shourt time.
I'm not gonna lie. The first day of a breakup is a huge, honkin', terrible disaster. You feel utterly rejected and humiliated. And you can't stop the waterworks even after you've used up most of North America's tissue supply. You're devastated-and no wonder! It feels terrible to be dissed by someone you care about!
Sounds weird, but the first step to feeling better is to feel as bad as you possibly can. It's crucial to get the icky emotions outta your system, and you can't do that without experiencing them. So for today-and today only-hustle home after school and DIVE into the covers. Chow your way through multiple cartons of super-duper-chocolover ice cream. Call you BFF and talk about how wrecked you feel. Now bawl yourself to sleep.

Day Two: Truth Tellin' Tuesday
How you Feel: Totally confused about what went wrong.
How To Deal: Get real with yourself about the relationship!
Once the shock wears off, you're gonna feel mixed up about WHY you were dumped. Was it something you said or did? DON'T blame yourself! There were probably clues that you two weren't built to last. To stop agonizing over every doubt-filled detail, write down five things YOU didn't like about dating HIM. Maybe he sneered at your jokes or eye-balled other girls. Instead of dwelling on what you could havge done differently, be way honest about his faults and shortcomings.

Day Three: Work-it Wednesday
How you Feel: Like a slug that's been run over by a cement mixer.
How To Deal: Energize with some excercise!
Right about now, you're probably feeling the physical effects of a breakup. Going through all of that turmoil can be bigtime exhausting. No wonder your bod's so blah! Kick that tired feeling to the curb with a refreshing brisk walk around the block. The cool air will do wonders to help wake you up and clear you head. So slip on the tennies!

Day Four: Spa Therapy Thursday
How You feel: Uglier than Betty
How To Deal: Treat thyself to some MAJOR pampering!
There's nothing like a bad bust-up to cause a girl to forget how gorgeous she is! Reality Check:You are completely foxy. To get back in touch with your hotness, tell your BFF to bring her caboodles case to your casa first thing after school. Then, spend the afternoon enjoying a fullon makevoer. Let you girl spruce up you 'do, polish your nails, gloss up your lips and TOTALLY babe you out!

Day Five: Forget-it-all Friday
How you Feel: Better but still shaky
How to Deal: Distract yourself with some BIG TIME fun!
You've made major leaps, but today is the day you've gotta watch out for back-sliding. Just when you think you're getting over your guy for good, your fingers start typing him "let's get 2gethr!" or you'll suddenly get an urge to walk past his house. DON'T GO THERE!!!!
Instead, make plans with your crew to do something totally outta-the-box awesome, like night snow boarding! Whatever it is, it should be colossally fun and should happen FAAAAAAAAR away from your ex's hang spots.

Day Six: Swingin' Single Saturday
How You Feel: Radioactive around all guys
How to Deal: Dip your toes back into the hottie pool!
When your BF stopped diggin' your gravy, you were convinced no other guy would ever be into you, right? It's normal to feel this way, but STOP IT!!! Go to that party or the mall...TONIGHT and talk to at least three guys. No rebounding-just focus on some nice convo so you'll see that boys really are still into you. There WILL be tons of dating fun in your future!

Day Seven: Super You Sunday
How you Feel: As good as new!
How to Deal: Totally dig life!
You woke up this morning and it hit you: He really doesn't matter so much anymore-you matter! It takes some serious gumption to get back out there when a breakup has knocked the wind out of you! no go on girl, and live today to the fullest. Groovy guys everywhere will notice!

I really hope this helps! Resources: My brain for the 1st part, seven day guy ditcher, Girls life magazine!!!
