A friend of mine told me exactly this, 'one day you'd look back at this day and laugh at yourself for crying like this'. I didn't believe her.
But she was right.
I fell in love again. Mad mad love. That ended too. The same heartbreak and the same pain, only i knew how not to cry publicly :D
Now how do you soothe a sad little broken heart?
There are certain things to remember:
It will hurt. So bad that you'd prefer dying. But it will pass. All you have to do is be open with yourself about your emotions. Don't deny your emotions to yourself. If you're sad, don't tell yourself that it doesn't affect you. What you should do is cry. Cry your heart out. Cry till your eyes burn and you're tired of crying. Physically tired. You know what you'd do next? Get up on your own and wash your face to feel better. Cry everyday if you want to. Let go of your hidden emotions. One day you'd get tired of crying and you'd not cry anymore.
Delete everything you have of them. Photo, messages, contact number, everything. You have their contact number at the tip of your tongue, no problem. Delete it from your phone. No need to block them from social media, you can take a break from facebook and whatsapp yourself. Deactivae your account and DO NOT check their accounts from a friend's account or a fake one. It's not going to help.
Make a list of what are the things you absolutely want to do in your life. Want to go on a trip? Bag a great job? Want to perform well in studies? Whatever it is, make a proper list. Write it down. And see which one can you achieve the soonest. Work towards it.
Write your feelings down in a notebook if you don't have a friend to blabber it all to. If you have a friend you'd trudt with your sad rants, speak to him/her.
Do not resort to drinking everyday and spoiling your life. Drink for fun if you want to. Not to forget her. You won't forget her, you'd only puke and wake up with a heavy head the next day.
Listen to music. A lot of it. Anything which you like.
Spend time with your family. If possible tell them that you're going through a tough time.
Start jogging. I wouldn't suggest you to join a gym because that is outright stupid to join a gym after a heartbreak because you'd eventually stop going to the gym. Start with jogging. Or yoga or anything, but do some physical exercise. You need to sleep at night.
Try to meditate. There are apps on google play which provide guided meditation for free. It reslly helps.
Watch happy movies. Don't watch romantic movies please.
Go out. Everyday. Don't spend time indoors. Even if you don't feel like going, go out. I swear it will make you feel good.
Start with a hobby that you had or wanted to have but never had the time to do. Painting, dance, music, pottery, writing, anything.
Take care of your health. Eat on time even if you don't feel like.
If you're a student, focus on your studies. Trust me buddy, years later these grades would haunt you if fail now. Do not be so weak that your career has to suffer.
And lastly, mark my words.. this will pass. You will be happy again. You'd find love again. And yes.. one day you'd look back at this day and feel so stupid for feeling this way. It's okay to be sad. It's okay to cry. It's okay to be broken. But you have to stop and take care of yourself because no one else will. You are all you have and all you will have for the rest of your life even if you find someone who loves you.
It's going to be okay. This too shall pass. :)
