A guy I know just split up with his girlfriend.What's the best advice to give?

Tell him to give the ex-girlfriend a swift kick in the crotch... take it from AzureStar and me... it hurts!

Pep Talk

It's not the end of the world
Since your baby left you
It's gonna be okay
You don't need her anyway

You're looking around for someone to love
So you don't have to face the world alone
But give it some time and you might find
That you're better off on you own
Cause you could be dead right now
You could be the stupidest thing in the world
But you're not, look at what you've got
And stop thinking about that girl

You deserve the best, but it's up to you to get it
don't settle for less, you know you're gonna regret it

It's not the end of the world
Since your baby left you
It's gonna be okay
You don't need her anyway

Watching the tube, moping around
Might as well be six feet underground
You're watching the game go by
Waiting for the final score
You got the beer commercials memorized
So you've probably heard this before
But this ain't the TV talking to you
It's a friend who's gonna tell you what you can do

You deserve the best, but it's up to you to get it
don't settle for less, you're the best and don't you forget it

I know what you're thinking ... you'll never find another
And even if you did, well, you couldn't love her
But out there somewhere is the person, place or thing
That you need to make you believe in you

It's not the end of the world
Since your baby left you
It's gonna be okay
You can find something better anyway

Just take your time. and you will find
What your life requires
Just take your time. and you will find
What your heart desires
Just take your time. and you will find
You will find

Ice, I'm disappointed. Where the hell is the irony, the sarcasm, the dry wit? I was expecting something more from you

Oh, sorry...

I just really like that song... and I think that it works well for people in that situation.

I will try to get back to my regularly scheduled irony and sarcasm.

The only cure is time.

When you lose/breakup with someone, there is
definately a void. Time does heal, and there isn't
anything wrong with feeling sad, just don't let it get
the best of you.

Find a friend/friends and go out and do something
that you like to do when you are feeling better.

Always, learn from the experience, there will
be more of life to experience ! Life goes on!

don't ask me the cure but like they say life goes on

Let him listen 2 some Prince n get him some chocolate hagen daas(spelling?) ice cream...he'll b fine:)

I had one HUGE heartbreak, and I was the one to walk away from her!! I had too though. Anyway, the best thing to do is keep yourself busy doing things: work, hobbies, going out, etc. Stay away from most anything that will bring back memories. Keep your mind busy and off of that other person. In time, it will fade; though, for me, it's still tough. Peace.

Haha!!

My 2 cents would be to !. DEFINATELY MOURN the relationship. dont pretend it didnt matter, let out the tears...if u dont, it will build up and manifest itself in u in unhealthy ways. u must go through this. 2. GET YOURSELF UP, and keep busy, as much as possible. gets ur mind off it. 3. DONT PURPOSELY LOOK FOR ANOTHER but let it just come about. it will. faster than if u were to look for someone. 4. SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP if u find u cant cope with life, or cant get out of bed, u withdraw, or get very depressed... 5. SEEK PEOPLE who will listen to u and support u through this, if possible, or join a group. 6. SELF HELP BOOKS help. 7. EXERCISE, KEEP ACTIVE 8. PRAY 9. DONT BLAME YOURSELF as it always takes 2 to break up. it's almost never just one persons fault, unless you r abused. 10. PEP TALK YOURSELF as much as possible, telling yourself u really r nice and someone else will b more than lucky 2 have u someday. a healthy self-love here doesnt hurt!

I so agree I always pretend and then I pay for it later.
