Answer 1

only time and letting go heals a broken heart. Talking with friend and family that you can trust not to go back and forth with things helps. And staying busy so you do not have time to dwell on things.

Answer 3

I know exactly how it feels. It has happened to me too. Best advice: instead of thinking of the relationship, what went wrong or blaming yourself for what happened, think about you, pamper yourself, think YOU are worthed, the world is HUGE, you are an unique person and somebody out there is just right for you, is just a matter of time. So, cheer up! Hang out with friends, go buy some nice clothes, makeup, try to look your best, do things you enjoy, share with people you love like famliy and friends. And really important if you believe, trust in God, give all your pain and depression to him and He will help healing your broken heart. Good luck!

Answer 4

Its not pathetic, its the ones who dont have the strength of admission that are pathetic. First let me tell you your heart still has life in it if you have the goodness and bravery to admit this question to yourself, never mind online. It is a horrible feeling alright and i've had it once or twice. It takes truly years to get over a true heartbreak and it reforms you-sometimes for good, sometimes for bad. Sometimes it hardens your heart, it did to mine and i wouldn't let anyone in AT ALL. The hole in your gut expands to swallow your whole life and turns meaning to dust and appreciation of life into a barren hell. But slowly it comes back. It took me 3 years but now i've found someone special i'm willing to take the risk of falling into that dark place for if it doesn't work and if it does-well, Kudos to me then. hang on and become your own person, become STRONG and individual and make this failure be the fuel for greater things ahead-you have the heart to do this, i KNOW you do! Contact me anytime you wanna hear my story. My friend you are NOT as alone as you think.
My Deepest Kindnesses,

Answer 5

Mending a broken heart seems like it is out of our control. Well, it really feels that way because we couldn't control the other person to come back to us or make things right again because we don't control them.

We can't heal our broken heart. Time heals broken hearts, acceptance is hard but it is part of the healing process.
Accept the situation. Forgive yourself and the other party. Look at the big picture of your life, look outside and contemplate of the bigger possibilities outside of our small visions.
Have the courage and determination to move on.

Pray. Look at the sky. Good luck! It takes time and a wider pair of lenses when you look at the world.

Answer 6

Time heals all your pain, I know because I have been there before. Just surround yourself with your friends and family and don't just let yourself sit and dwell on the past. You have to look towards the future and tell yourself that you can make it. Right now when your heart is hurting the best thing you can do is laugh. You should be with friends that make you laugh and smile. Everything will be alright

Answer 7

Only time healed the heartache.I tried going out with other guys and it did not work.But being able to talk about it helps a bit.And doing things that boost our self esteem helps us to see that we can be happy by our lonesome.Helping others in need or seeing how others are worse than we are helps put things in perspective.Remember that things happen for a reason,this I have realized as time has gone by.Take care of yourself.

Answer 8

Only time can heal a broken heart. One must trudge on and try to find happiness again. Which will come even though we believe it is impossible. I t is very, very hard. I think it took me 7 years to get over it. Hope yours is healed sooner. Don't give up and good luck.

about a month ago i was asking the same question. I was with this boy named dj and i loved him more than life but he had more impotant things on his mind. He didn't want to tell me what was going on, he didn't return my calls or emails so, i had to call things off. It' hurted so bad. I was even calling him to take me back, but i'm gald he didn't. The pain doesn't go away at all. I know people are going to tell try to forget about it. Don't who ever you were with is only making you stonger and i had to find that out on my own. Now i go out with a new boy, and i still have feelings for dj, but they don't bring me down as much as they did before. Now i'm going out having fun with my friend and i'm in love again. It was only a month ago were i thought i would never love again. I know you feel that way but as time goes on your heart will learn to change you tears into smiles. I promise you this. ♥

Answer 10

Only time will heal the pain. Meditation can help to heal because you can express your feelings in meditation and learn to let go. Keep yourself busy and be around friends for support.
