Nothing but time can heal a breakup, but music sure can help. Whether you're feeling despair, anger, or just plain confusion, here are some songs that will feel like they read your mind, and might just help heal your heart.

1. For the moments when you really miss them and just need to cry about it

These are the songs we listen to when we're crying alone in our room, or staring dramatically out the window wondering why this world is so darn cruel.

"From Here To Eternity" by Frank Sinatra

"It Never Entered My Mind" by Frank Sinatra

"High Hopes" by Kodaline

"All I Want" by Kodaline

"If You Ever Want To Be In Love" by James Bay

"Let It Go" by James Bay

"Tonight I Wanna Cry" by Keith Urban

"Whiskey Lullaby" by Brad Paisley and Alison Krauss

"Broken" by Lifehouse

"Drowning Shadows" by Sam Smith

*silent tears*

"Regresa A Mi" by Il Divo

"After The Thrill Is Gone" by the Eagles

"The Scientist" by Coldplay

"Better Man" by Little Big Town

"Colder Weather" by Zac Brown Band

*sobs*

2. For when you feel nothing but angry at them for breaking your heart

These songs just make us feel so justified, so powerful. Would recommend listening to these while at the gym, because like working out, they remind us that we are strong, independent individuals who deserve better.

"The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac

"Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac

"Words Of Love" by The Mamas & The Papas

You ought to know by now...tell 'em, Mama Cass.

"Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood

Maybe this isn't the exact situation, but just listening to all the stuff she does to his car makes you feel avenged.

"Which To Bury, Us Or The Hatchet" by Relient K

"Sahara" by Relient K

"Lifeline" by Thousand Foot Krutch

"Hero" by Skillet

"I Knew You Were Trouble" by Taylor Swift

"Picture to Burn" by Taylor Swift

Why does fire feel so good right now?!

"When We Were On Fire" by James Bay

"Don't" by Ed Sheeran

I personally think the clean version is angry enough; listeners beware.

3. And for when you finally decide they aren't worth the pain, you're better off without them, and you're finally ready to move on

"Don't Worry 'bout Me" by Frank Sinatra

"Landslide" by Fleetwood Mac

"I Have Made Mistakes" by The Oh Hellos

"Let It All Out" by Relient K

"Moving On" by Matt Kearney

"Losing" by Tenth Avenue North

"Blue Ain't Your Color" by Keith Urban

"White Horse" by Taylor Swift

"I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" by U2

"I Don't Need A Soul" by Relient K

"This Is The End" by Relient K

Honestly, this whole album is perfect; it runs the gamut of relationship emotions. It is the breakup album, after all.

"Heart Of Gold" by Neil Young

"Long As I Can See The Light" by Creedence Clearwater Revival

"Make Your Own Kind Of Music" by The Mamas & The Papas

"I Won't Let You Go" by Switchfoot

There's so much more to your life than the end of this relationship.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
