I was discussing with a friend regarding matters of the heart. she is not really feeling good and has decided to break it off with his bf... and then we asked to accompany her... but she said she can't sleep and would need to drink... she knows it will not help keep the pain away but she needed to make sure she could sleep last night.... have you gone through such when you were trying to forget what upsets you, or if you have actually had your heart broken??? we all have different coping mechanisms... and well what has helped you heal your heart faster? thank you!!

My heart is still broken... I fell in love with this girl, and she only wanted to be friends, and now won't talk to me anymore. I have no clue whatsoever why it bugs me so much but it does. I have had 3 girls I fell in love with and they fell in love with me back die. So my heart remains broken... I don't believe you can ever mend a broken heart, but you can have a heart that's taped together, but you lose a piece of your heart every time your heart is torn into shreds...

I did not actually get to that point when I need to have some booze. But I resulted to other things. I was really lost that time to what things to do so I went to a sport complex and have some exercise and all. And then I saw this belly dancing class and I eventually joined. After our class, I went there to dance. All I wanted at that time was to forget him for awhile. And I want to physically drain myself so that when I go home, I would drown myself to sleep. I don't really know if I have healed my broken heart faster or slower. I just lived my life each day with joy and every thing is coming into place. ;)

it really depends on the situation and how the break went. I have had my heart broken plenty of times by the same man. It took me a few months to get over the pain, almost a year. In that time I learned more of who I am and things that I enjoyed maybe that is something she can do. Find things that she enjoys that keeps her mind off of him.

there's really no formula on how to mend a broken heart. mine took several years. it will just heal itself when you're ready, you'll just have to be patient and try to learn something from it.

This is same question I would like to ask for myself. Right now, I dont know... I still stuck at him. I am trying though right now to mend it all to pieces but it keeps on bothering my the moment I wake up everyday. I just wish someday I wake up completely renewed, completely forgeting all the pain, forgeting him and completely have moved on...

chiyosan I think it took ten minutes to say love, but it took a lifetime to fix a broken heart

Well, there's nothing that will help you heal faster. A heart will heal in time.. but if you try to avoid the pain you're just going to prolong it. A lot of people try to keep busy to keep their mind of it.. but as soon as they're not busy anymore they're going to begin to feel the pain again. Some people will try to jump into another relationship hoping to feel the emptiness left behind.. but that is unfair to the new partner because your heart will still love the last one. If you want to be a good friend, then just be there for her right now. Bring her some comfort food (cookies, ice cream, other junk foods) and just be there to listen to her. Then, she needs to get back to her life. It will still hurt for awhile but life goes on and she needs to keep going to work, seeing her friends, whatever it is she usually does everyday. She will soon find that everyday it gets easier and easier to be without her boyfriend.

Hi mate! I think the heart mending doesn't follow any time rule because I still cannot say when my heart will be fixed again. Its quite a long time since it torn apart but the feeling is still mutual...
