I'm old and cynical, been through the major depression thing and recently finally got out of a 12 year long unhealthy relationship. Hate to tell you, but this is not the last time you'll get your heart broken. It happens to both women and men.

Learn from your mistakes but DON'T let him get away with blaming you for the breakup if he tries to do that. Hanging out with your friends is a definate good thing to do. Take care of yourself, force yourself to if necessary. If you feel shitty physically, it will only compound the depression.

It will get better! Get a dog or cat if you don't already have one (personally I would recommend a small white fuzzy dog, but that's just me). And keep talking to people. I became a bit of a recluse for a while, and even though somethimes you may need to do that for a while, don't do it for too long or it adds to the problem (the depression).

Take care and feel free to PM me if ya want.
