Yikes, we've all been there... a late-night call, a text, he sits you down on his couch... however it happens, it's like a punch in the face. Getting broken up with SUCKS and there's really no sugarcoating it. But it's part of life and every girl WILL do these 9 things to get through the process. Because that's exactly what it is... a process.

Binge eat pizza, ice cream, chocolate, anything that brings you happiness.

After you go through a breakup, you really just want to feel better, so you eat what makes you feel happy. Just confine this to one weekend, though. After that, it could start to catch up with you.

Call literally all of your friends and talk about it.

You want to call your man either 500 nasty mean names or cry about how much you miss him, but either way, you're talking to someone about it. It's too hard to just sit around and feel bad about it, so talking to someone helps with your anger or sadness.

Think about all the good times you had together (and maybe some bad ones, too).

You'll reminisce on your first date, your first kiss, meeting his fam, whatever it is that was good in your relationship. You also might think about how much he changed, what he did that drove you crazy, and you'll probably have a lot of questions.

Do something to take your mind off of it all.

Whether it's working out, getting lunch with friends, whatever, you'll try your hardest not to think about it. You really don't want to be in the place where he's all you can talk about, so you try to move on.

Cry over the thought of him finding someone new.

You know you're not supposed to think about this yet, but you do and it KILLS.

Get angry. 

After a couple weeks, girls will get INSANELY mad. They'll think about literally everything their ex ever did that made them upset, and they'll realize they never needed him anyway.

Change your look.

Whether it's cutting your hair, coloring it, changing your style, or anything else to switch it up, changing your look is definitely something every girl does.

Wonder who you'll meet next. 

When one door closes another one opens, right? You start thinking about who you'll meet next and you might even make a Tinder or a Bumble if you feel like it.

Gain your confidence back.

Obviously, after a breakup you feel like you aren't good enough and you wonder what the real reason was that he broke up with you. Regardless, after being on your own for a little while you'll start to realize that you'll be OK and that you really never needed him anyway. Thank you, next.

Break-ups suck, but you'll get through it! Grab your friends and some ice cream and let it all out!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
