Answer 2

Free bird, the only thing I can tell you is if you believe in God, Pray and ask for peace. Don't go down memory lane, Don't sit home alone thinking, because that's the worst that you can do for yourself.I promise you, go out with two to three girlfriends in the day light and let it be known, not to speak about the ex. You will eat that day, because they will keep you occupied. As for sleeping I don't advise you to do this, but this is what I did. I would take 1 Tylenol PM for 3 nights and after that I went to sleep on my own. When I just could not stop thinking when I'm at home, I would grab a pen and a piece of paper and write as if I was talking to him. You can trust again, it's not easy and Don't force yourself now, So mending a broken heart takes time and you should never go right into another relationship. Learn what you want in the next relationship. Then see if you measure up to that you are now wanting, If not, SPEND THIS TIME GETTING YOUR ACT TOGETHER You gotta have something to bring to the table too. Be honest with yourself and all the others that want to talk to you. It's gonna be ok. I promise you WHAT DON'T KILL YOU, WILL MAKE YOU STRONGER.

Answer 3

what u are feeling is a pretty normal thing right after the breakup, just something u have to go through, as time passes u will get back to normal, but u have to accept what has happened, and expect to go through a grief process, as for trust, u will always be kind of gun shy, but we do have to trust someone at some point, and resume our lives. for now just love yourself unconditionally, don't blame yourself for it, chances are it wasn't about u. when we are hurt, we don't sleep, because our life has been turned upside down, life as we knew it is gone. u will find happiness, once u finish the grief process.it does help to go to therapy, maybe a group dealing with this kind of thing, where there are others like yourself going through the same thing. broken hearts are inevitable, it happens, we weren't promised a perfect life. and we don't have any control over what the other person in the relationship does.

Answer 4

It was a woman who broke my heart, and i couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, developed trust issues, and over time, learned that i broke her heart first, its just she did her mourning of the relationship ending while the relationship was still ongoing. I had to deal with it all at once, and was devastated. Your going to have peaks and valleys, and its ok, because if you didn't, you wouldn't have a heart that woth loving. These experiences can actually make you appreciate when the right kind of love enters your life. just remember, that as each day goes by, you will get a little better. Its also helpful to keep busy. Don't give yourself too much time to dwell on what was. Get rid of country music for a while also.

Answer 5

You can't mend a broken heart, my dear. You go through a multiple stage grief process. It controls you. In time the scar tissue becomes less tender, a hard lesson is learned, and you go on with a little more caution about relationships. Insecurity
will leave you when a true love overcomes all obstacles.

Answer 6

Honey if thats you in the pic, and he walked out on you, there is something wrong with him. You are a FINE looking lady and there are good men looking for a good hearted lady. Trust is something that you just have to do, and you can't carry the feeling of the Ex into a new relationship. I will also say to just trust in the Lord Jesus as well. God will never leave you and is always there to listen to you. He can give your heart the peace you long for.

Answer 7

Time...as numerous as the
Tears...that stain your pillow you clench in
Anger...the fire of his betrayal fizzles into eventual
Sadness...weeks of tissues and Ben & Jerry's brings
Questions...what did I do? where did it go wrong?

Time...slowly brings...Acceptance

And the knowledge that you CAN go on - and you WILL go on..Stronger than the old you, more cautious- but wiser having loved and lost. Take inventory of your life and what role you expect a man to play in your life. Do not look for a man to fill every void in your life. Focus on enriching your own life experiences and broadening your own horizons - do not let a mere man dictate the direction your life will go.

Hearts will mend, but trust must be earned. Although the heart is the compass that leads the mind - experience is what keeps you on track.

Answer 8

The greatest of all healers is time. You have to force yourself to eat, so as to not get sick & run down. The same goes for sleep. Try taking a warm shower or bath before bedtime. Maybe doing some reading afterwards, will help relax you & make you sleepy. Trust me, you will learn to love again & trust again. This man was not the right one for you because if he was, he wouldn't have walked out on you. Your heart will mend in time, once you keep yourself busy. Surround yourself with family & friends, & force yourself to get out daily. Push yourself to take daily walks. They do help!!! I wish you all the best!!!

Remember this saying: If God brings you to it....God will get you through it.

Answer 9

You can cry yourself to sleep, til you grow tired of it.
You can't force your appetite until you settle your emotions.
You will never trust as easily as you did the first time.
You can't fix a broken heart.

I bet you have a couple of three letter words you'd like to nickname me by now, but take a closer look at what I said.

Cry yourself to sleep, it will be good for you to get it all out and is shows you're only human. Your body can only deal with one function (pain) at a time, its can't signal to you that you're hungry because it dealing with your upset emotion. You will trust again but I feel sorry for the person that try to earn it, (that's a good for you, you're worth it). As far as a broken heart, leave it broke. It will serve you well, trust me. No one will ever be able to do that to you again.

p.s. "Time" will heal you, just don't drive down the same dead end street twice.

Answer 10

I know the feeling. My husband left me after 7 years. I could not sleep or eat. i was so depressed that my family and friends where coming to my house to check on my kids. i wasn't even get up to cook for them because i was so full of pills that i didn't care. i was taking pills to help me sleep. the way i saw it was i rather be sleeping it off then being awake crying over him. No ones pain is greater then your own when its happening to you. the only thing that i can tell you is that it will all get better with time. it will seem like its taking for ever but i promise it will happen.

Answer 11

Time is the only way to heal a broken heart. Please also tell yourself that love is not everything. The earth still revolves with or without the man. Everything still move on and so must you. Pick up the pieces, show him that you can live on life to the best even without him. Make him regret his decision.
