15 Songs To Listen To When You Realize You're Ready to Get Over An Ex

https://www.google.com/search?q=broken+heart+music&biw=1252&bih=580&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjI7amb8f3LAhXEtoMKHdGbBgoQ_AUIBygC#imgrc=jLIwteNaQkccGM%3A

Breakups suck. There is no easy way to sugarcoat the fact that losing someone you loved is a painful feeling. So if you are going through a tough breakup, grab the ice cream and your girlfriends and binge-watch Nicholas Sparks movies for an entire weekend while bawling your eyes out. It is okay. When you're still feeling the sting, but you realize how much better you deserve, here are the 15 best songs to jam to while you get past the final hump. Keep your head up, lady.

1. "Me, Myself, and I" by G-Eazy and Bebe Rexha

This is for when you need to be reminded you'll always have yourself so you better treat you right.

2. "Same Old Love" by Selena Gomez

If Selena can get over Justin Bieber then you can get over anyone.

3. "Ugly Heart" by G.R.L.

I can not explain how great this song is to sing at the top of your lungs when you feel that missing-him feeling coming on.

4. "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" by Taylor Swift

You had to know Taylor Swift would be on this list somewhere. She is the queen of breakup songs.

5. "Leave the Pieces" by The Wreckers

Because guys are confusing, and girl you deserve someone who wants you 100%.

6. "Best Thing I Never Had" by Beyonce

You need some of that Beyonce confidence to get you through.

7. "Irreplaceable" by Beyonce

This song will make you feel beautiful and so much better than you were before.

8. "Stronger" by Kelly Clarkson

Sure this is pretty cliché and over used for girls going through a break up, but it really is a good one.

9. "Aftertaste" by Shawn Mendes

I absolutely love this guy. His voice could cure any heartbreak.

10. "Consider me Gone" by Reba McEntire

Because if a guy is okay with letting you go, then you better walk away and never look back.

11. "Kerosene" by Miranda Lambert

For when you get super angry at the guy.

12. "Fighter" by Christina Aguilera

Her strong vocals match the strong message throughout the song and it makes you feel untouchable.

13. "How to be a Heartbreaker" by Marina and the Diamonds

Because you'll get to the point where you are ready to get back out there, but you don't even want to risk getting hurt again right now.

14. "No" by Meghan Trainor

Because you'll go out, have fun, and love being single.

And lastly, when you look back on the relationship and realize how happy you are that it happened, go ahead and listen to ...

15. "Never Forget You" by Zara Larsson and MNEK

Even when you know you don't want the person back, there will still be times when you hear a song or think of a memory and miss them all over again. It's okay to admit you still think about them. It takes a long time to shake a broken heart but trust me: your person is out there and until you find them listen to these on repeat in the car, shower, or whenever you need a good pep talk through music.

8 Things That Anyone Who Went To A Small School Knows

Sometimes bigger isn't always better.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

12 Most Annoying Things About Working In Sales

No, I can't help you.

Oakland University

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

16 Things Blondes Are Tired Of Hearing

Please hold your blonde joke.

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
