Get Over A Breakup In 7 Petty Steps

Breakups suck and there are many healthy ways to get over said breakup, this is not one of those ways. Sometimes pettiness heals the heart faster than being a mature adult, it feels good to take your anger out and let the pain you feel be known. If you follow these steps you will probably feel better or worst depending on your savage level.

First off, welcome back. You are now back single, soltero, unique (yes I did google single in Spanish and French) You're not going to die; single you is just being resurrected.

1. Blow up.

This includes all types of psychical, mental and emotional violence. Let the other person and the world know you are pissed and hurt. These can also be subtweets, Facebook posts (if you want your family to know), Snapchats, Instagram posts or long and hateful text messages.

2. Collect your thoughts and plot.

You may have already gotten all your pettiness out but if you haven't just plot and think that you're going to destroy their life. Let it known that you are not a force to be reckoned with.

3. Unfollow and/or block them

Depending on the type of person you are you can unfollow them so you can't see what they post but they sure as hell see what you're saying and how happy you are (fake it until you make it). Blocking them can also give satisfaction because they won't know what you're saying or doing, if you're happy or unhappy.

4. Do not be alone for the first day or so.

Do not allow yourself to sit and pout in your self misery, keep the anger flowing and complain until your friends want you gone. Go claim their bed for the next couple days.

5. Seem to be the most happiest and glowing individual there is on social media or if they're going to see you anywhere.

Do not give them satisfaction of seeing you broken or sad. You are thriving and getting back on track to live your life.

6. Do something different.

After a breakup I always change my physical appearance in some way, it makes me feel like a new person ready to take on the world alone.

7. Let it go.

After this, you and everyone else has probably grown tired of your consistent pettiness towards that one person. You won, they lose. Now move on to better things and never look back.

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.

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.
