I don't really have a bad experience with break ups. I usually do the dumping though LOL

How to deal with a break-up: Don't get a relation....just saying.

Move on .. It's the best way to survive (this is not a publicity video, it's answer somes that people ask in this thread)

Either that or deal with it.

Focus on something, a video game, work, a hobby, anything you enjoy doing give it your complete and undivided attention. That's worked for me in the past.

I always break up with someone when I lose interest! I know it sounds selfish on paper but...
Well, anyway, yeah I always THEN end up regretting it due to unforseen paranoia and jealousy!
"Wtf does he have that I don't?"
"Erm, dude, you broke up with her."
Oh yeah.
