So you're at the dance, drinking Mountain Dew, when you see your boo, or who you thought was your boo, dancing (at an awkward distance apart) with that one girl from your science class. What do you do once you get home and wash off your Lip Smacker lip gloss?

Cry, and listen to the playlist you created just for this moment on your iPod Nano, of course. (Only after you send him a broken heart "</3" message on MySpace.)

You remember that, don't you? Here are 16 songs that you KNOW your early 2000's self cried to.

1. Justin Bieber: "Baby"

"Thought you'd always be mine." Yeah, right...

2. JoJo: "Too Little Too Late"

3. Colbie Caillat: "Realize"

"If you just realize what I just realized, that we'd be perfect for each other and we'd never find another."

4. Taylor Swift: "You Belong With Me"

"What you're looking for has been here the whole time."

5. The Jonas Brothers (feat. Miley Cyrus): "Before The Storm"

16. Rihanna (feat. Justin Timberlake): "Rehab"

So maybe you didn't understand what you were singing about until a little later in life, but that doesn't mean that these songs didn't get you in your feels during "the worst heartbreak of your life." And let's be honest, they probably helped you dry your tears and get through it.
