The Agony of Heartbreak: A Playlist for the Broken-Hearted
Breaking up is never easy, but getting cheated on takes the pain to a whole new level. Watching your ex move on with the person they cheated with can be a brutal reminder of your own heartache. But, as the saying goes, time heals all wounds.
The Three-Day Rule
In the aftermath of a breakup, it’s essential to allow yourself a brief period of mourning. Three days, to be exact. During this time, you can wallow in self-pity, blast your favorite breakup anthems, and feel sorry for yourself. After that, it’s time to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get back out there.
