How do you cope with rejection or heartbreak?
On the first day, I will just let myself embrace the sadness, pains or whatever negative emotions that rises in my heart. Suppressing negative emotions is a big no for me, so.. it’s better to let it out at first.
It’s only in the following days that I can bring myself to continue living my life after the heartbreak or rejection. I know I’ll still be in the phase of picking myself up again, but time will eventually heal. Maybe, I’ll work harder and consume medias as a way of distracting my mind.
Let me think about this for some time because I don't think I have any specific way to cope with heartbreak. Have I experienced rejection before? Probably not because way before I face the rejection itself, I would've thought myself as ones who afraid of rejection. Wouldn't it better to not say a thing instead of got a rejection? Pardon me, I'm such a coward.
Besides, there are more reason that can cause a heartbreak. Human is fragile and they could easily get hurt. Hurt as hell, but you got to move on. Maybe just let the time heal, that's what I believe. Time will heal. Time will heal. Happiness will come forth so please be patient and face what you have to face, the heartbreak, the sadness, everything makes you in gloomy will slowly be gone.
Quite poorly, if I have to admit it myself. There are times I either become really.. petty and just can't stfu, badgering people with the sad-sack loser sob story, or bottling things up until one day they explode in such an unpleasant way. But usually, I just let myself to consume as many medias as possible, the depressing ones are much more preferable in a way that I can cry about them in complete force so I won't have to feel guilty of feeling sad about some guy who broke my heart.
On day one, I’d probably break down, letting all my thoughts out, and cry all day all night. By day two or the days following, I’d begin to care for myself, prioritize my needs, romanticize my existence, purchase new makeup products and bags, and living my life as I should be! Oh, also, deleting all memories about it.
I'll just go with the flow. I won't force myself to feel like I'm fine. If I feel like I want to cry, then I'll cry.
