Getting through a break-up

I stumbled upon Lea Salonga’s blogsite, I got interested on what’s on her mind…couldn’t believe that someone as busy as her can maintain a blog…she’s really the one writing each blog and not her secretary–i doubt if she ever has one.  I think she’s too independent enough not to have a sec and besides her career is mostly based abroad which trained her to be independent.

This is her blogsite: http://bigsis222.multiply.com/journal

I find it harder to go through a break-up esp if you’re not surrounded
with family and close friends….esp if you’re on your own and living
alone…it was a nightmare…but hey I made it through…by God’s Grace. I do believe the first lines of John Mayer’s song

"When you’re dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll out of bed and down on your knees
And for a moment you can hardly breathe
"

I got interested in one of the topics of Lea’s blog: and that is, how to get through a break-up (I found this late though, wish I read this before the break-up),here it goes:

I’m a pragmatist.  Oh, I’m a romantic too at heart, but when I’ve
needed to, after I was done feeling sorry for myself, I’d kick my own
ass and give myself a wake-up call.  Here are a few lines that I can
think of to do this for someone else (and hidden in them are some lines
I’ve used on myself).  Boys, go ahead and change the gender of the
nouns and pronouns if any of these applies to you:

- Why are you wasting your tears on that loser?  Snap out of it.  There are better men out there.

- You are not a slave to any man.  Don’t act like one.

- You’ve changed, and for the worse.

- He would’ve cheated on your ass anyway… cut your losses and run for the hills.

- He can’t even take care of himself, let alone you!

- You’re growing, he’s not.  Move on.

- And what in God’s holy name did you ever see in him???  Woman, get your eyes checked!!!  Stat!!!

- In the end he would have destroyed you.  He almost did.

- You collided with a fist.  And you’re still with him?

- You can’t even respect him!!!  How can you say you love him?

-
After all he’s done to you, you remain true.  Why?  The sex can’t have
been that great.  And even if it was, it’s not worth it.

- Martyrs are so archaic.  Don’t become one.

-
He tore you down piece by piece, taking away your self-esteem,
self-respect and self-confidence in the process.  If you still love
him, then he also took away your intelligence and common sense.

- He clearly doesn’t love you… and who knows if he ever did?

- All he wanted was sex.  He got what he wanted, and now he’s gone.  Asshole.

-
Get rid of his photos.  Destroy his love letters.  Put away everything
he ever gave you.  Stop texting, stop calling, stop chatting, stop
writing.  Remove him from your Facebook/Multiply/My
Space/Friendster/Live Journal/Blogspot/Yahoo Messenger/AIM/MSN
Messenger/etc. contact list/s.  Erase all contact information from your
PDA/cellphone/address book.  He’s not worth even one single thought.

- You fell in love with a troll.  We all make mistakes.

- Why?  Is he that handsome???  Is his d*** made of gold???  Helloooooo!!!!! (rough translation of one of the comments below)

Yeah, I love a good ass-kicking, when it’s absolutely needed.

I still believe the best thing of all is to pray…and trust that God will give someone much better… :)
