Q: My boyfriend, of almost 2years, just broke up with me. I am going out tonight with my best girl Kate, and we are going bowling. Is that a good Idea?

What should I do to keep my mind off of it? And what shouldn't I do?

Oh jeez, I'm so sorry. Breakups are ALWAYS hard. =/ Yeah, going out with your friend will get your mind off it. Try and keep yourself busy, or else you'll find yourself thinking about him. Avoid listening to sad love songs or watching romance movies. Go out and watch a comedy with a whole bunch of mates or something to cheer yourself up. And don't go anywhere that you guys used to go. It's going to be hard, but you CAN get through this. Also, if you find yourself thinking about him.. do this method I learned in psychology. It may sound funny, but it really works. Visualize a paper bag in your head, put everything thats worrying you in it, seal it, then immediately put your thoughts to something else. This especially helps at nighttime if you can't sleep because of what's on your mind.

All the best.

thank you! :) thats really cool idea! thanks a tun!
