You're over the moon, you're head over heels, you're so so happy. Yes that's the feeling when you're with someone who you feel is the right person for you. Nothing can bring you down because this person is more than your boyfriend/girlfriend - he or she is your best friend. But what happens when one day it is over?

Well on that day you've completely fallen from cloud nine and can't describe the hurt you feel. Sometimes one person falls a little harder and they don’t see that until their heart is broken and it's too late. Some people put up walls when they're about to lose someone, and others hold on with everything they have. Either way once this person who you feel like you know and love ends the relationship with you, it's hard to not feel confused, naive, and just plain hurt.

I know break ups aren't the end of the world and that they are a part of life, but in the moment it sure feels like you're world is flipped upside down. There's no one right way to handle something like heartbreak, and that's what makes it even worse. You just want the painful feeling to go away but we all know it's not that easy. You can’t listen to certain songs anymore, you can’t ignore all the happy memories that are running through your head, and you can’t help wondering how you went from being so passionate and so happy to so broken up inside. Maybe some people handle break ups with ease, but I think it's safe to say that a lot of other people, clearly myself included, have a hard time with them.

Coming to terms with being the person who loves too hard is tricky because how can you not fall too hard? How many times do you have to go through the same thing to realize that you should put a few walls up yourself? Maybe there isn't an answer to these questions but falling hard for someone means the crash is going to hurt that much more.

To look on the bright side, it's not the end of the world and "they" say it gets better with time. But if you're anything like me and you love with everything you have to give, it will take a lot of time. The important thing is to not rush yourself. There is no timetable, there is no right way, and there is no formula to feel better. With the help of your friends, time, and a lot of cliché sad songs it will get easier.
