What does your personal process for getting over a breakup entail?

Kinda sorta inspired by Andy B's question here: http://answermug.com/forum/topics/is-it-possible-that-the-planning-stages-of-divorce-can-lead-to

    Funny, that question was inspired by a question asked prior by Randy D. Lol.

  • i think i just go into a mode of taking care of myself. i read, sleep, exercise, hangout with friends a bit, have lots of spa days, do some introspective-type thinking. generally rediscover myself after having compromised half my true self for the sake of another. it can be quite liberating.

  • Listening to sad songs really loud - to cry

    Watch The Notebook, 50 First Dates, Sweet Home Alabama, My Sisters Keeper or Stealing Home - to cry

    It's funny because I'm always the one to end things.  :-/

    Not getting into any more.   It seems I happen to love me more than most men did.   I learned to devote the time and energy into making me happy instead of worrying about why some man isn't happy and trying to blame it on me.    Since I am not a depressed, desperate nymphomaniac, I am quite successful at this endeavor.  I have lost (on purpose) many women friends who have to have a man at all costs.    I don't suffer fools.  If that is their choice, fine.  Leave me out of the mix.   I can't watch that kind of train wreck happening in front of my eyes over and over.  Man- hungry women are boring to me.   As a friend, I always wind up second over some idiot stranger that happens to have a schwanze. 

    I hate the women who cannot see this truth.  They upset me to no end. Nothing is sadder than a woman who has it all but has no sense of self worth and will grab anything with a wanker to make sure she isn't ALONE.  God help them.

    I spend a bit of time sorting out what went wrong, when and where and compartmentalize that information in the head-vault as best I can to avoid the same problem in the future. Beyond that, I just return to living sans a partner.
