Can you still remember, what you did when you had a bad heartbreak? Me as much as possible I make major changes. If we used to hangout at certain places before, I`ll discover a new places that doesn`t resemble or make me remember of the old times. I accept the situation, cry my heart out for one whole night than feel better the next day. How about you?

I try not to think about the past, and look forward to new things. Thou i will still react to some things, I walked away from my ex and have not regreted it as it was for the better. Thou a few months after i became single i did go and get a tattoo done, that i'd been thinking about since the start of 2010. It symbolises the changing in my life.

I looked for another one. Yes,it helped me to recover and forget my ex. I thought, at first, the replacement was better but after a year, I got also separated with the second one. I lost contact with my first bf. It's been four years now. We went to different relationships. And last year, I added him on facebook and we started making friends again. We are both in a relationship now, but all I can say is..he is still the best.

It sounds like you are doing the right things. You have a good attitude and make the best of it. I had a very bad relationship with a man for years; I even ended up marrying him but we were only living together married for 2 years. Then after he left I still had an off and on again thing with him. I couldn't let go of him. It took many years before my feeling just trickled down to nothing for him and only then could I let go of him. I had a series of no good boyfriends for a period of years. Now I've been without a boyfriend for a few years. I get very lonely and depressed; the depression almost seems like a heartbreak. I would advise anybody who is in a bad relationship to recognize it and get out of it. I think when I was in my main bad relationship I didn't recognize it for what it really was; it was a terrible relationship that caused me much pain. It caused my kids pain also. I would hope for both men and women that they get out of their bad relationships so they will have a chance to be in a happy relationship.

After a very bad break up, I just stayed in my room for 2 days, just trying to sleep the whole 2-3 days because I didn't want to wake up.Waking up meant feeling the hurt again. I lost 6 lbs for 2 days.. I didn't eat. I was such a loser by doing that. I never thought I could act so silly for such a non-worthy person.

After my last really bad breakup I decided to be alone. And I was for more than 2 years. Within this time I committed myself only to work and I was working like crazy sometimes more than 12 hours a day but that time that was the best option not to think about the pain I felt inside.

Hi zhawee!!!How could I forgot that bad breakup since he was my first love. For almost 4 years we've been in a relationship we just ended that sudden. I love that guy but it seems the longer time we have it seems he doesn't care about me. I'm the one ending that bad relationship. Because I really felt I was being ignored that's why.

I cried the whole night and the whole next day. I cried a little for the next few week and then after a month I party with friends. Of course it's not easy to mend a broken heart but it's not also good to stay in a bad state either. Cry and let go of our emotions and then have fun after. have a good day jaiho®

Couldn't do it in one day. It would take days even weeks. I do cry and i cry hard! The problem with me is that everything around me would remind me of that person so i try to look for friends who can cheer me up. When they do talk to me about many things i get distracted and don't have to think about the person anymore.

just think positive, " hey, he/she not for me, maybe still anyone good for me in this world" or " i have a big responsibility, that situation is nothing for me". don't just think that hurt, you can got lesson from that.

It was 3 years ago when me any ex broke up due to reasons she said was her fault. We'll its hard to accept that at first. You are constantly searching for things to keep you away from thinking about your ex. My idea was to take a short trip and unwind it did work at first but when I came back it returned. I took up a hobby that I really enjoyed and from there I learned to love my self again.
