time, ice cream and an "I hate you" letter (which you never send or give)

There really isnt one solution on how to heal a broken heart other then time. You can subside the hurt from the broken heart though. You can do this by doing more things with friends, maybe hanging out with the family, and making some guy friends. They always just know the right things to say. I know it is hard and you have my best wishes, just try and start over, I am sure you will find a equal or even greater man out there:)

Here's How:
It's okay to grieve for a time. Seek support from your friends and family as you come to terms with the changes in your life.
Don't look at past relationships as failures, but rather as opportunities to learn and improve your relationship skills.
Don't worry that you're not in a relationship. Your value comes from who you are, not who you're with.
You don't have to be a recluse just because you aren't a couple. Treat yourself to an evening out doing something you enjoy. Take along a friend if it's not a slolo activity

Treat yourself to a special gift now and then. You are a special person and you deserve it.
There's more to life than romantic love. Take this opportunity to nurture your friends, family and self.
Take some time to reevaluate what you need in a relationship. Have you been choosing partners who are not capable of a loving and mature relationship?
Be willing to take another chance on love. Like they say, you can't win if you don't play.
Be a friend to yourself. If you care about yourself, the odds are better you will attract those you care about you too.
If you're finding it hard to let go of a relationship, you may need to seek counseling. An obsessive need to be with someone who no longer wants a relationship may be a sign of love addiction.
Avoid jumping into a rebound relationship. Take some time to work through all the issues from your previous one.
Don't try to get revenge. This will only slow your progress in healing from the hurt.
Forgive yourself. You can't change the past, but you can learn from your mistakes and not repeat them.
Forgive your partner. This doesn't mean that you are saying what happened is okay. What it means is cutting your losses and not investing any more time in something that hurts you.
Tips:
Church groups, volunteer activities, and university lectures are just a few ideas for meeting new people in a safe environment.
Get a makeover, join a gym or start a diet. As you improve your health and appearance your self-esteem will rise.
Repeating daily affirmations can help you to regain confidence in yourself.

Only time can heal a broken heart. Going out with friends helps too.

Do a complete turnaround--do something that makes you happy. Don't think about it. The more you think about it, the deeper you'll just be diving into that bottomless, dark hole that is your broken heart.
Gather up supportive people: friends, family, neighbours, strangers on a train--seriously, I tried that once and maybe it's better to rattle off all the troubles to someone who doesn't know you at all and who you won't ever see again!
Like a bandage covers broken skin and allows it to heal without further damaging it, put a metaphorical bandage over your heart. Pick something that is totally unrelated to whatever broke it, put it "over your heart" and whenever you feel it's peeling off put a fresh one over it. Refer to it time and time again as a stronghold. And like many others have said, time will heal it.

do we even have a medicine for that?! kidding...
let everything that made your heart broken out. talk about it to anyone who's willing to listen to you... cry if you wanted to. just spill all that bad feeling out. it will help you lighten a bit... a broken heart is hard to heal. it takes time... so i think the best advice i can give to you is to say move on, take things one step at a time, and live a good life... you'd be surprised to see how far you've gone! lol..

Contrary to popular belief, hearts do not break, nor do they bleed or shatter, it's flesh and the flesh is often wounded and ignored, but cannot be damaged in such a way. The "Broken Heart" is a phenomenon we all fail to understand because we're human and take things "to heart", so to speak, giving us a false sense of reality we wallow in from time to time.
In relationships there are ebbs and flows, we tend to choose not to see the things in fornt of us, not because we cannot, but because we color the canvas to reflect what we wish it to show...often times, we're the only one's seeing it.
If you're suffering from a lost love or seeking some solace because of an ended relationship (of any kind), the best way to see it is this...
Time may not heal all wounds, but it does make them less important.

time and patience...*sigh* the broken heart...I know that it seems like an uphill battle and quite often it is. Just know that with time it gets easier to smile and move on. Use this time to reflect on the lesson's learned in your experience and apply them to your next relationship. Know that we are to meet a few of the wrong people so when we meet the right one we will know how to be greatful. You will come out stronger for having gone through this...Like I said...it will be painfull, but its only temporary...just let your heart let go. Hang in there ok...

Time is the best healer.
Finding something benign to spend your time doing.
Enjoying the company of friends & family.
For some, when the time is right (2 months - 1 year or so, usually), finding another relationship.

The only cure is time.
However you can make it easier on yourself. Cry and feel sorry for yourself for one weekend. Then get on with life. Spend time with friends. Go dancing or dance alone at home. Rent some funny movies. Treat yourself to a nice dinner out. If you can afford it, buy yourself a new piece of jewelry.
Don't mope. Don't feel sorry for yourself. Life is in us today and we make our tomorrows.
