life lessons

This weekend i learned a really important lesson. you might say DUH! but i think you have to experience it in order to understand it. "LIFE GOES ON" Thursday night, my boyfriend of four year (definitely on and off) and myself broke up. all i wanted to do after that was sit, and do nothing, and talk to no one, and whatever - u get the point i assume. anyways i know you dont want to hear about my personal life, but after three days of just sitting and being crabby, i realized that life does go on and everything happens for a reason. i have no friggen idea what the reason is for this - but im sure there is one there. so i guess if you ever encounter a situation like this, just know, it will look up, there will be a happier day. and if youve gone through this - respond and let me know ways it keep my head high.

Hey Fashion Nut! I totally know what you are talking about but I decided instead of a short comment I'd like to write a blog on it so read that and I hope it helps you out a little! Hang in there, Courtney

Fashion Nut,
I know how you feel. I have been in your shoes before. My b/f after two and a half years broke up with me his senior year becuse he culdn't handle school and the pressure of a girlfriend....(in about 2 months he had a new girlfriend andyways). So, I am/and have been for 2 going on 3 years of some serious shit, and was just starting to get a little better. After we broke up I was IN THE DARK! I got so depressed and sick again that I had brought myself back to where I started. I never thought life was going to turn around. But one day I did the same thing you did, and I got up and went in search of something positive. At the beginning it really sucked because it still didn't make me feel as good as he did, but it was a start. I started exploring new things a little at a time and exploring new people. I am a realy loud, outgoing girl and it is easy for me to start up a cnversation with someone and keep it going if i have interest. I started to do that more often and just at the weirdest times and really started to make some good, fun friendships. My b/f started calling after a while (which he completley cut loose from me before) and I played hardball with him, because I knew I was doing okay without him.....I am sort of sorry to say it, but we are trying it again. we spent most the summer hanging out and he seemed to really grow on me again. I started to grow on him more, just because I went out and did stuff for me. This might not make sense or help, but just remember to keep going everyday and to play around with new stuff....you would be suprised how things work out.
