What’s your recipe for recuperating from extreme heartbreak?
I don’t know that I have a way to recuperate. I’m still not over one of my heartbreaks. I think I just found a way to push it aside, but I know it’s still there… lurking in the shadows of my mind… waiting for just the right moment to jump out and crush me.
I can, however, tell you what I’ve done in the past: cry, eat copious amounts of chocolate [and maybe even get some cheesecake involved], cry some more, talk/cry to girlfriends, and, a couple of times, fuck someone else.
p.s. — Does it count if I broke my own heart? Actually, that’s probably the case in 90% of all heartbreak I’ve ever experienced. All my fault.
[Thanks to my lovely friend Marquessa for this 31 questions challenge.]

Cheesecake is handy in lots of situations!

It does solve a lot of problems. Unfortunately, only temporarily…

I have only had my heart really broken once. And I cried a lot, and might have found comfort from a very inappropriate person 🤭 it was not the most healthy or smart choice but it did help. Its just been minor disappointments since then, but now I tend to let myself have time alone to heal haha

I think I want only some alone time. Mostly, I don’t want to be alone when I’m crying about being alone. I need the support. Unfortunately, most of the time, I didn’t have any.

I tend to blame myself for everything, so this is no exception. I could probably blame others. I mean, my first boyfriend never actually broke up with me. I guess the kids today call it ‘ghosting’.

Ghosting is the worst! My first boyfriend ghosted me, too, before that was a term.
