Breakups are as welcome as a rogue piece of uncooked steak slapping you across the face. As soon as they happen, you feel pretty fucking gross – regardless of how long you spend in a squatting position rocking back and forth in the shower murmuring “I’m clean, I’m clean”.
Looking back on the heartbreak, however, usually puts it all into perspective. There’s no denying that at the time it was the most harrowing thing you’ve experienced. But then you got over it. Like, really over it. You’re amazing. You’re incredible. You can’t even recall your ex’s name. You’re the fucking SHIT.
Devastation is replaced with a sense of “lol @ me” because there’s no denying how much of an embarrassingly hot mess you were pulling through the whole ordeal. So, people of the internet who just so happened to have experienced a pretty memorable breakup, take solace in knowing you’re not the only one who feels ridiculous after their own experience by watching the below video:
