If you've never had your heart broken, good for you. But if you have, especially for the very first time, congratulations.
At this point in time, every piece of advice sounds cliche, every small detail turns into a reminder, every daily routine turns mundane and every lonely moment of quietness sparks a memory churn. This may be one of the the most difficult times you'll ever experience, this first heart break, but look forward to the beacon at the end of the tunnel. Take comfort in your friends and family. Take comfort in yourself. Look inside you for the stronger side of you, dig deep in search of self-worth.
Most importantly, breathe deep to calm the tears. We're worth so much more than we sometimes give ourselves credit for. Don't let anyone string you along as PART of his/her life plan. YOU should be the life plan.
If you've just experienced your first real heart ache, congratulations. Now, you can handle anything and everything that charges your way.
