i was just in this situation. i'm just getting over my break up, and being with friends really helped. it's good to keep busy, especially just sitting around and talking to them. what bothered me a little though, is hearing about their boyfriends and their problems with them. sometime my advice was labeled as too harsh because i had just gone through a break up. other than that, music helped too. especially kelly clarkson's recent cd. yeah i'm a dork, but i found myself relating to a lot of songs. especially behind these angel eyes. oh and one more thing that helped are my guy friends. i found they cared about me when i talked to them about "him". it felt good to hear them call him an a**hole and threaten to kick his butt. but that is just me.
