how do you deal with a breakup

[Guest kylewilliam]

after two years of living together, jillian and i broke up. it was an intense, insane, and beneficial relationship, and i am going to be torn up about it for a long time to come... how have you all dealt with your breakups?

[electricsnow]

poorly. it sucks. wish the best.

[fourfourtwo]

drink & fuck.

I heard thats the best.

[destroyingthescene]

Video games and records. Oh, and lots of bad and irrational decisions.

[davezer]

Spent as much time with friends as I could. Keep your mind off shit. Get out of the house as often as possible. I did that and drank a lot (not recommended but it helped). and also:

lots of bad and irrational decisions.

[goraiders]

that sucks, IMO you can't really make it better. Just do what you do and eventually it'll be over.

[impact]

keep your mind occupied.

start doing new hobbies, or bring back old ones.

living well is the best revenge.

This. Just pour yourself into whatever makes you feel good.

Beer and friends.

[bruins4ever]

Beer, records, funny movies.

Smokin popes- destination failure

the streets- a grand don't come for free

maker's mark. Within a few days I was usually okay. But that's just me.

It sucks man. No matter what anyone says it won't make you feel better, but time eases the pain. Last fall I was devastated when my ex and i broke up, but now I'm doing well and have met this amazing girl because of it. It gets easier. I promise.

Best advice I have is to let your records sing your blues.

Wish you the best.

Try to go on a roadtrip or something with a couple of friends. Of course this won't negate your feelings but having good experiences will help you realize that you can still have fun.

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

get drunk, get crunk, get fuuuuuuuuuucked up

I'm going through this right now. I have lived with her for 2.5 years and dated her for 1.5. Now it's moving into the " I should move out part" and she always wants to know why I don't want to be with her. She seems to brush off the obvious answers I give her. I'm almost incapable of dealing with it. It just didn't work and I'm afraid it won't again. Not sure I can deal with it again. It just didn't seem fair sometimes and I can't deal with the inconsistencies.

This.

A massive roadtrip helped me alot after my last breakup. Don't forget to listen to Conor Oberst -S/T while you're on the road. It's the perfect recovery combo.

Listen to lots of Hank Williams. That man can fix anything.

[jasonskanks]

cut myself.

no but seriously sorry to hear that

var ads = new Array("300x250-1.png","300x250-2.png","300x250-3.png");

var num = Math.floor(Math.random()*ads.length);

if(Math.floor(Math.random()*2) == 0)

{

if(Math.floor(Math.random()*2) == 0)

document.write('+':we1bkc7d]');

else

document.write('+':we1bkc7d]');

}

else

{

document.write('');

}

My shrink helped me immensely, as did the cafe next to her office where I met, and fell in love with, Amy.

Eventually (and hopefully), you will feel that the break-up was the best thing for you, that it happened for a reason, and that you are much, much better off now than you were then. When you get to that place, you will not be able to imagine how you ever felt loss in the first place.

[lokithelion]

Listen to this DC Talk song that disses Jars of Clay.

i hope this song will help you, kyle.

in my opinion, practice, write more song and book more date on tour may help you.

you lost her but you still have your music....

Oddly enough, the ad I see at the top of the page in this thread is how to get woman back after they dumped you. Go Google ads, they are trying to help you.
