Reading this you may be going through a broken heart and be thinking you can never get through this. But you can. And you will.

First point I have to make, when going through heart break. Turn to your friends and family, no matter what they are there for you. Even when the one person you want to talk about your grief to is your ex, you must fall on others.
Second point is, it is going to feel like your heart is being ripped out stabbed, twisted and forced back in. It will be as painful as losing a loved one and it won’t get easier for a while.
Music. For me it was my best friend, made me not feel alone when I would sit by myself and cry.
I know it is hard and I know it hurts but you must keep your head up and think about how it may work better for you.
As humans we grow every day and learn lessons endlessly. Try and find the lesson you learned here whether it is good or bad.
Now the first 2 weeks may go like a breeze but then it will become a stab in the heart again.
The part that kills the most is seeing them with someone else. It will hurt a lot but you can think about the positives:
1. You are not together anymore so they are living their life. Don’t discourage that
2. It shows it is ok to move on, it is ok for you to let down your hair and have fun.
3. It takes a lot of time to get through that pain in your chest that aches.
4. Don’t let their words hurt you.
Everyone moves on at different rates, and if you’re not ready don’t feel like you have to be.
I won’t lie. Forcing yourself to be sick, barely eating, and barely sleeping. They feel like comfort but they’re not, push through them because they are not good for you.
Think about the future and live your life to the opportunities that suit you because theirs are different to yours. But most importantly try to not become bitter over it, because you loved them for a long time but now it’s time to put it behind you, you can remember the memories but they are memories now. Take a deep breath gorgeous and work through it. Others know how you feel, you’re not alone ever.
Best thing to do is find things to distract yourself, for me it is music, going for a walk, and don’t forget that crying is good and it is to cry on end for a while. But then pick yourself back up and keep pushing for it to get better.
Turn to others as well… but keep moving forward, don’t let them play with your heart.
