Breaking up sucks, and it takes a serious amount of time to FULLY get over it.
Here are 11 different stages of breaking up, being single, and learning to be confident again…
1) You and your significant other break up. You’re sad when it first happens…
2) …but you decide to wipe away your tears and go wild on your first night as a single lady.
3) When you wake up the next morning and realize you’re STILL a single lady, you’re even sadder.
4) You let yourself do the whole ‘listening to sad music, eating ice cream and crying forever’ thing for a week (or two)…
5) …until your friends hold a break up intervention.
6) You’re determined to replace him. You are FLAWLESS and can snag ANY guy.
7) Forget him! Only a total loser would dump a gem like you! You’re pretty, smart, and a total catch.
8) Being single with your best friends is way more fun, anyways.
9) …but then you run into your ex and it’s totally awkward.
10) Eventually you decide that you’re okay, because you’re better off without him.
11) And besides, all the attention you’re getting from tons of cute guys isn’t so bad after all.
