Life is about making choices. Some choices, like who you marry are big… while others are even bigger. Another choice is how to get over a break up. Some handle it calmly, while others jump into rebounds and some get free reign to whine to their friends. Yes, I believe that part of the breaking up process is you get free- reign to whine to your friends. But when you crossed the line from pleasurably neurotic to annoyingly troubled, and your friends start to cut you off, cold turkey, it's time to think about going to a very expensive foster care- a shrink.

A few weeks ago, I had an encounter with the past. At first, I didn’t know what or how to react, because its been months since I haven’t seen my former boyfriend, but as the conversation progresses, it turned out to be a good meeting. That night, I contemplated about the x- factor. During our school days in math, we learn that “x” stands for the unknown. “A” + “B” equals “X”. But what’s really unknown is: “What” + “What” equals friendship with an ex? Is it an unsolvable equation? Or is it possible to transform a once passionate and intense love into something that fits nice and easy onto the friendship shelf? I couldn’t help but wonder- Can you be great buddies with an ex? I guess being friends with an ex is possible as long as you have to stand by certain conditions or rules, or else you will wind- up being heartbroken and/ or knee- deep in trouble.

You can’t plan everything, life can be pretty random. And one of the things in life that you can’t prepare is a nasty break up. You should’ve seen the break up coming, but you didn’t because your ex wait for you to get relaxed and get comfortable before he pick the ice pick down between your eyes. It’s truly a painful process that you can’t wait for it to be done and over and move on.
When this happens, you can’t help but shout from the top of your lungs “When is this heartache going to end?” According to one study it takes 17 months and 26 days to totally move- on from a divorce, but what about a regular break up? How long does it take for a person to move on from a break up that does not involve lawyers and alimony? The answer, of course, is there isn’t any right answer.

They say everything happens for a reason. These people who usually say this are women, and these women are usually sorting through a break- up. It seems that men can get in and out of the relationship without even saying goodbye, but apparently for women, its either they get married or learn something. Some women cannot help but rush from confused to Confucius. It seems that the search for lessons help lessen the pain. But in order to learn your lessons from your heartache you need to be aware of your emotional state. Yesterday, I posted a blog about knowing if your ex is over you or not.

No doubt that you were the magic, the “poof” of his life, the “abracadabra” of your relationship. But now that the relationship is over, how can you tell that he has totally moved on? For whatever reason, whether you want to be friends with your ex boyfriend or you have intentions of getting your ex back, you need to know if he’s over you or not. It’s helpful if you have an awareness of the emotional status of your former boyfriend- especially if getting your ex back is in your ulterior motives.

Whether we admit it or not, as human beings, we love to do something fun and pleasurable, it’s human nature to want self-gratification. And sometimes, consciously or unconsciously, we play games to experience self-gratification. It you really think about it, it really makes sense, we spend our childhood playing games, were they just primers for the games we play as adults? And no matter how we co-exist harmoniously, men and women treat their relationship as a big chess match- strategy moves, counter moves, all designed to keep their opponent off balance. Both men and women are guilty of these games.

“He Cannot Stop Looking At Other Women!”
Earth- composed of 70% water and 30% land. It is also made up of various elements like 32% iron, 30% oxygen, 15% silicon, 14% magnesium, 3% sulfur, 2% nickel, and then much smaller piles of calcium, aluminum, and other trace elements. It is also inhabited by “Homo sapiens”… beautiful Homo sapiens… young, vibrant and sexy female Homo sapiens. You can see a bunch of them on the mountains, on the beach, rural and urban areas. Earth is a veritable playground for frisky male Homo sapiens. And in one little island called Manhattan, a confused and frustrated female wants her male to stop looking at other female species.

Signs Of A Troubled Relationship
It’s normal to have “ups and downs” in a romantic affair. But when the “down” part seizes most of your togetherness, then you have to assess: Is your relationship in trouble? One of the basic keys on how to save a relationship is being aware of it signs. Here are the signs of a troubled relationship. First is when you don’t have faith in each other anymore. Love can be developed and trust can be rebuilt. But when your faith in each other or in the relationship itself is gone, it will already be difficult to have a blissful union.

How To Move On From A Bad Relationship
It has to end... No matter how painful it is, that time is now. Breaking up is never easy. Deciding to end a relationship, no matter how imperfect it is, will always be emotionally and mentally traumatic. In spite of the imperfections, you did share wonderful and intimate times together. Like what they say, memories are easy to make but are hard to forget and remembering makes it harder to move on. That person you are saying goodbye to has been a part of you. Detaching yourself from him can be very painful and unimaginable. But like everything else in life, think that this too, shall pass and no matter how hard it is to move on, in the end, things will fall into its place.

Know The Real Truth Why Men Break Up With Women
Every Saturday morning, I jog with my chatty friend Maria. It’s great to be with someone very talkative and bubbly; you get to enjoy the company without realizing how many laps you have wrapped up. But last Saturday, I was a bit surprised because my usual gabby jog- mate is not in her usual self, she was surprisingly silent. After a few lapses, we took a rest and she opened- up. “Jake, called me last night. Said he wants us to cool-off for awhile. He said he needs time and space to think. We all know, Ruth that it’s just men’s polite way of saying ‘We need to break-up.’ That was the third time I heard the ‘It’s- not- you- its-me’ excuse...
