A Best Friend's Guide to Heartbreak | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

SMART-Strip-AdIf you’ve ever been on the receiving end of some really bad break up lines and empty promises to stay friends with the person who just broke your heart, then you would know how painful Valentine’s Day is for your newly single friend. Of course, when it comes to our best friends, it’s not enough to just talk it out and analyze every word of her ex’s break up spiel, we have to take extra steps to make sure that she will be fine.

Because of all the balloons and flowers littering the streets this Single Awareness Month, cheering up your heartbroken friend is an even more crucial mission than it is any other day. Below, we present the different ways to be the best person in existence this Valentine’s Day!

Go on a road trip. How can your friend move on when everything she sees reminds her of the one that got away? Take her somewhere she can nurse her broken heart without having to deal with the bittersweet memories that linger at every corner.

Send a care package. As much as we want to be by our friend’s side 24/7, pesky things like distance sometimes get in the way. Surprise your friend instead with all of her favorite things compiled in one convenient little box! To show how much you care, put a whole bunch of things you know your friend would like: from her favorite comfort food to that book you know she’s been dying to read. Waaayyy better than her ex’s Valentine’s gift last year!

Make a playlist of all the songs that you know will get your friend through this ordeal. Let Taylor Swift do her magic, and watch as your friend shakes all the heartache off. Or better yet…

Split a (very heavy) meal. There’s nothing quite as cathartic as eating your feelings. Treat your friend to that all-you-can-eat restaurant both of you have been eyeing. A couple of hours chowing will surely leave your friend’s belly and heart happy!
