Be Strong ~ Go Out Alone!
How often do you feel like going out but have no one to go out with?
“How often do we miss opportunities because we are waiting for someone to do them with us?
If you still feel like half of a partnership after a breakup, it might feel strange to engage in activities without your ex.
They were your guide when you drove; the expert critic when you picked out movies together; and the flavor-chooser of your ice cream sundae and toppings. “No, don’t get sprinkles again, get nuts this time!” Now you are facing the task of creating your own entertainment and deciding all by yourself what kind of ice cream to have. You are going to have fun alone. It's better than staying in all by yourself and feeling sorry for yourself.
Go and see that movie no one else wants to see.
you don’t always need a companion. Have little adventures along the way. Make yourself a stronger person by being independent. You don’t need old what’s-their-name to make decisions for you. Do you really think your ex has turned into a shut-in? Not likely.
You are strong! You are independent! As Gloria Gaynor said “I will survive.” And so will you.

Ladies – don’t give up your friends for a man!
How many people stop seeing and calling their friends when they are in a relationship? Let’s see a show of hands... one, two, three, four... -- ah -- too many. And how about you? Hey - stop looking down when I’m talking to you! Yes, you!
Friends are great to have around. You can share your good news with them, or even a cake or an ice cream sundae. Scandal isn’t the same unless it’s shared with a friend and when bad news comes along, you pick up your phone to reach out to your friends.: )
So why do you stop calling them when you are in love? Is it because you want to spend every free minute that you have with The One You Love? I know. It’s true.
But it’s not a good thing. As the relationship moves along and Mr. Perfect is beginning to get on your nerves a bit, you need a break from him (or her), and then you realize that you miss your friends. Keeping in touch with them is like having insurance—you might not really NEED them again, but it’s good to know that they will be there for you if you do. Especially if you have a breakup—so make sure you maintain your “Friends Insurance.”
When Anna and Jonas broke up, Anna discovered that she had no friends to turn to. Here’s part of her story from Breakup Cocktail:
“...(Anna) had forgotten to take out Friends Insurance when she met Jonas. Friends Insurance is offered by your old friends from school, Ed and Cindy, your neighbor Betty, and Adam from the gym.
Or any other friends you spent time with before your big relationship came sailing into the bay like a cruise ship ready to take you away on the trip of a lifetime. Now that the ship has docked and everyone has disembarked, where are your friends? Are they waiting at the port, ready to welcome you back? What? You didn’t even send them a postcard from the Ports of Happiness, New Boyfriend or Engagement? What makes you think they will be there to greet you now?”
Poor Anna had to regain her friends—and fast. But Anna had another shock to deal with when she and Jonas split up, as he was a very sneaky man...

Being Glad to be You
Waking up alone after a breakup is no fun. Sometimes it takes you a few minutes to figure out where you are.
"...but whether you are the abandoner or the abandonee, about 50 percent of people wake up in a strange place after a breakup, and it’s not always because they drank too much the night before and went home with the bartender." http://amzn.to/106FCdM

Some sympathetic advice can help you on your way and make you realize that others are suffering like you. Sometimes you need to take your mind off your problems and then you will feel lighter. Brighter. And there's nothing that cheers you up more than finding out others are worse off than you! Look at the tales in Breakup Cocktail - they will make you smile and they will make you relieved that you are you!

Thinking About Someone Else - Mentally Cheating or Not?
Can you cheat, but only in your head? Is a fantasy about someone other than your spouse mentally cheating? Compare it to committing a crime that you never get caught for—is it still a crime if you are not found out, or if no one ultimately gets hurt? It’s like the age-old question, if a tree falls in a forest does it make a sound if no one is there to hear it? If not, can it cause damage? Yes it can if it falls onto your car!

You are faithful in your relationship. You never as much kissed another person, but you are thinking about someone else way too much; and maybe at times when you shouldn’t be! Does this make you unfaithful? How do you know if you’ve crossed the line?
Answer this question –
I think about the other person:
(a) Only when I see them
(b) When they slip into my mind from time to time
(c) During intimate moments with my partner
(d) Very often
So you’ve got the visual stimulation in (a), you think about them only when you see them. That’s not bad, in fact it’s very normal, unless you flirt with them - but then you are moving away from mentally cheating into a more physical field.
How about (b)? Still not a terrible thing, unless you combine it with (c). With (c) you are stepping into the realm of mentally cheating - if such a thing does exist. It doesn’t mean that it’s a bad thing and I’m not here to judge, but it’s certainly not being altogether faithful. But who’s trying to be perfect anyway? Whether that matters to you or not is up to you and no one else and don't let anyone tell you any different. Often our thoughts run away with us and if your answer was (d) you might want to take those running thoughts and see who they lead you to...
In "Debbie’s Tale" in Breakup Cocktail, Debbie finds evidence that makes her sure that her partner is mentally cheating on her. What could she possibly have found that made her realize that, and what does her partner say to defend himself?

Are Nightmares Better Than Pleasant Dreams?
Are dreams more real when you are vulnerable? Right after a breakup we worry about everything. Our brain tries to calm us down and organize our thoughts
...but these fears come out in dreams.
They mix themselves up with something ordinary that has happened to us perhaps that same day,
or
something obscure
we have seen
on TV, like a
frothy dress.
Our thoughts are all over the place doing a two-step with our emotions causing a strange story to emerge that we call a dream.
Or
a
nightmare.
Our dreams don’t make too much sense but they are a way of calming our emotions and organizing and cleansing our confused minds. After a separation, every day is a healing day and we often don’t recognize that our body and brain are doing everything they can to help us recover. We go to bed thinking about the one we loved and lost and we have wonderful dreams about them. We dream that we are still together and slowly, as we open our eyes we remember hard, cold reality – we broke up and we miss them.
Is it worth having just a taste of something we can’t have? Is it better to wake up after spending a few minutes of a dream with the one you love, only to lose them again once the dream fades away, or is it better just to have a scary dream?
Here’s what I think – I’d rather have a dream where I am chased by an axe murderer with three eyes and a drooling smile than to dream that I was walking hand in hand with my ex, only to lose them again when reality kicks in.
...So tell that axe murderer I’ll meet him tonight in my dreams.
