  2. Avoid drama and escape the breakup with your dignity intact. 58 percent of Americans say that their breakups are usually dramatic or messy. We'll show you how to avoid the mess and get the support you need from healthy sources instead of reaching out to your ex for comfort.

I recently had a messy breakup with my first love. This advice helped me understand that people change, and they might not be who you thought they were when it ends. I am still hurt by what happened with him, but I have learned to appreciate the experience, because it will make me stronger. The content in this course has given me a whole new toolkit to heal from my breakup. Thank you so much wikiHow!

Nick

I recently went through a breakup with my girlfriend of 3 years. Despite all the plans we made for our future lives together, distance and lack of communication got the better of our relationship. It's been almost one month, and I have been unsure of all my actions. Feeling my mind becoming more fragile, I turned to the internet for advice. Going through this course has given me the courage to modify my thinking and help me back on my feet.
