Lessons learnt from heartbreak

Just going through my second major heartbreak.
Any advice how to get through it? I usually feel bad and just put up my guard making it more diffcult to fall again.
How do you deal with it so it can pass faster. Don't want it to take time.

Focus on yourself, Do things that you find comforting. Pamper yourself. Treat yourself like a princess and soon you will begin to hold yourself in highest esteem as you rightly should. Watch good movies, read a gripping book, draw, paint, go for an invigorating walk.

Allow yourself a little grieving time and then get out and do things to take your mind off of things. Lean on your friends and get out of the house. Do not sit around and mope about it.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I'm usually good with getting out and taling care of myself. Yesterday I went and visited a friend who had a bad accident. I felt better cause I see I'm blessed otherwise. I also called up many friends who I haven't spoken to for a while. What I feel bad about is that it takes me such a long time to fall for someone again. And I'm sure I miss out good opportunties because of being on guard.

'it all depends on the individual how much time it takes'
That's very true. It seems to take a long time for me. I can't understand how it's so easy for some people. Sometimes I wish I was more casual with my feelings.

'Know that those who hurt arnt worth your tears.They didnt care so you shouldnt care for them too.'
I'll have to REMIND myself with this.

'Like the best of things..best feelings should also be rare..or else they loose their charm'

It's good to hear that someone also thinks like that.
