Any ideas how to mend a broken heart?

Yea so this jerk dumped me and it feels like the end of the world. I've got a broken heart and no idea how to mend it.

If he really was/is a jerk....then you're not missing out on much. Know that you're better off without him and that someone better is out there waiting for you.

Try and stay positive and do things you enjoy!

Umm BOWLING... no no jk, it'd only make you worse if you can't hit anything. Go hang with friends have fun. Loosen up, if he was a jerk then there's no point in getting sad. You should be happy that you don't have a jerk bf anymore.

"If it has testes or tires, it's gonna give you heartache." I should know, I've got testes and a spare tire.

For what it's worth, broken hearts do ease over time - small consolation now, but it is true. And there's nothing we can say or do on here that will speed the process . . including fudge brownie icecream. It's your own wound and it'll heal in it's own time.

I'll give you one insight tho.... been married going on 14 years and we've broken each others hearts quite a few times - but we've been committed to each other even when we really didn't like each other. That's a fact of our life, and as my kids get older I expect my heart to be broken many more times. But in the end, the breaking doesn't matter because the scars make you wiser and (to no small degree) sexier - because you start learning what you really want and what you'll put up with and what you won't.

Take it one day at a time, there will be some bad days, and some good days. Concentrate on a hobby. Do something new. Just don't sit home and brood.
