For yah!

Here it goes...

For the past couple of milleniums people have wallowed in self pity and repeatedly cried that break ups are sh*t, but why the hell do we get into relationships knowing that it can end worse than the last one?

I don't know, but I know it feels nice. I think falling in love is the closest humans can get to flying. Owkay! Mushy alert!?!

I get the inspiration from a friend (who will remain nameless, but i can tell you her name rhymes with warren!) before I proceed I want to say kudos to her and I'm hoping that she stays strong and please don't get back with him for the good of both of you.

So, how long should we cry over a failed relationship? Some say 48 hours then that's it. You're done, it's finish, move on. Unfortunately, I'm not one to hop in a bus with robots in it. Some say as long as you want... Again, I'm sorry but I do not intend to have puffy eyes for the whole of eternity. So how long? I apologize but me too doesnt have the answer to this million dollar question. I think we really don't get over a heartache, at least get over is not a term for it, for me it's more about understanding, you learn to understand what happened, it becomes clear to you why it happened and then you learn to be happy again. Just like the movie, we must pursue happiness. We learn to be our old selves again. We begin to see clearly and we pick ourselves up again ready for the next love to come.

See, We all had our share of bad break ups. We all swore to never love again but as impossible as we thought it was we find ourselves falling for a new guy. Hopeful. I think that's what make our hearts resilient. We do not lose hope that there will always be a time when we won't have to worry about parting ways with someone. I think we must convince ourselves of this, in order to keep our sanity during the tumultuous times of crying over coffee and making a map of dried tears in the pillow.

So, again, how long should you cry? I say... You shouldn't ever deprive yourself to shed a tear but you owe it to yourself to do everything you can to fight it from falling.
