Hi. First of all, here's a hug. You're not alone as I've been there too. I've had my heart shattered and after a long time and family help, I came back. When you first go through it, have a good cry. Get it out of your system SAFELY! This is not the time for you to lose your head even though that is what you want to do most. Keep yourself up--you still have to eat and maintain yourself. Also, let those you associate with know (in your own way) that you're going through a rough time and that you need them. Perhaps talk to someone that you can really trust and who knows how to listen the way you need them to. When you feel a bit better, start going out. Go to festivals, join a gym, take a class, or perhaps start a hobby that you've been meaning to but never did. Do you like to bake? You're right at the beginning of 'baking season' so see what is around you. Basically, keep yourself active and your mind off it. Sure you'll think about it (I'm not trying to be heartless) but it does get easier. Most important...LAUGH!! Eventually you will meet someone who will treat you the way you deserve. Just see to it that you don't make the same mistake again. Its never fun to go through the end of any kind of relationship but it does happen and you have to do what is right and sensible for you. Hope this helps!

Good for you! Glad that depression doesn't really get you down as it is a headache in itself. Here is hoping it'll stay that way!

Actually I don'tknow until now how I was able to cope up with that broke up. As I remember I just hang out more often with my friends who knows my situation then. It really helps that you mingle with people who knows the situation and willing to understand you. While at home, I keep myself busy doing my hobbies and when it accidentally flashes into my mind, I just keep reminding myself that maybe we're not really meant for each other or maybe, there's a purpose for that separation. I also think of the good memories and avoiding those that will make me depressed. Prayers and convincing power that there's always a purpose for whatever comes my way. Always think it positively rather than negatively that would even make pains stays in you. Happy mylotting.

mostly i also think and make my self believe that everything happens for a reason, things like there is someone better for me or it's just not meant to be and just a stepping stone to improve myself, my weakpoints in both life and relationship. thanks dude :D
