Heartbreak -
I’ve covered a lot of topics, but I don’t think I’ve covered heartbreak. There are several different ways heartbreak can occur.
First - Unrequited love. I really hate this one. It can sort of be avoided but at the same time, it is REALLY difficult to control your emotions. So many girls, myself included, find themselves stuck liking a guy who just doesn’t like them the same way. That is hard. It can really mess a person up.
Second - A breakup. It doesn’t matter why a person breaks up with their “significant other”, it can still be very hard for both of them. It is often most difficult for the person who didn’t initiate the break up. It’s really hard to move on and continue with life as though nothing happened because, let’s face it, something big has changed.
Third - Something out of your control occurs. I’m thinking something negative, like an accident. Something that could cause a relationship to end, a bit more complicated than just a breakup. It could be positive though, like one person moving to college and the other one staying behind, or a guy going on his mission. That can be really hard because you know that if that event hadn’t occurred, you might have been able to be with the person you like.
This is what I do to deal with “heartbreak”. I just deal with it. I laugh at myself and move on. If my emotions get to be too much for me to handle, I talk to my friends about it. They are amazing and always willing to listen, particularly since they have experienced similar things. I go to church and remember that Heavenly Father wants me to be happy. My family reminds me that I’ve done the right thing and give me support.
This life is temporal. Anytime I get stressed over finals or boys, I remember that. I sit back and close my eyes, imagining what it will be like one, two years from now. The few times I felt absolutely devastated, I reminded myself that time could heal my wounds. I always, ALWAYS remember to look to the Lord to help me in times of need. I try my best to look to Him when I don’t “need” Him so badly as well.
Heartbreak is hard. So deal with it by getting the help of dear friends and the Lord. Ask your family for support. If you’re accustomed to spending time with a person who has left your life, fill that time with a hobby or with your friends and family. The best way to keep your mind off someone is to keep yourself busy.
And remember, there’s always someone who loves you and is there for you.
