So I'm lying here like a deflated balloon, should be studying but don't have the energy required. Have ate my body weight in oreos, feel like utter crap and why??

Because of a dirty lying cheating scumbag!

You give your all to someone just to be treated like a mug.

First boyfriend, first lover, first heartbreak - is this what lifes really about?

Why does this feel so bad!? Why did he feel the need to climb into someone else's bed!? Are all guys like this? How do I ever trust again, will this feeling ever go away.

It is one part of life that happens when people break up,
he felt the need to climb into someone else's bed because he wanted to or some other reason known to him,
all break ups are bad most of the time,
yes all men and women are affected no matter which side of the break up you are on,
if you do not trust someone else in the future because of the actions of one boyfriend who broke up with you that is your issue alone
you should never compare one human to another and treating someone in the future differently because of the past is wrong and not fair to the new person
the feeling will go away but it takes time
if you are going to continue to drown your sorrow in cookies make sure to purchase the cookies while they are on sale.

My advice is to stay away from Girl Scout cookies, they are so expensive.

Also, get a new boyfriend. What's the old saying...... Best way to get over an old BF is to get under a new one.

Yes, the feeling will go away. I know it doesn't feel like it now, but it really is true that one day you will look back and be like WTF WAS I THINKING??

PS: And when you see or think about him with someone else, you'll laugh and think "Better her than me!!" (Source: MANY DECADES of experience with lying, cheating scumbags.)

It might be your first heartbreak but it will most likely not be the last It sucks, hurts badly. But time heals all wounds, promise.

PS: I've got oreo cravings now!!

The love addiction withdrawals you're experiencing are similar to what drug addicts experience. That's because the same part of the brain (the pleasure/reward center) controls both addictions.

In order to cope with breakups you have to stop thinking of it as heartbreak. Your heart is not broken; it's your brain that's broken.

Your brain is craving a certain neurochemical that made you feel good when your bf was around. Your bf provided the stimulus for this chemical to be released (I'm oversimplifying the process).

After awhile, your brain begins to produce less of this chemical and the feelings begin to fade. Just like that, he's gone and your brain is left craving more of the chemical.

In extreme cases of love addiction withdrawal, some doctors prescribe antidepressants (or other drugs) to increase this chemical in your brain to help you get over your breakups/addictions.

You don't realize it, but you're increasing the chemical in your brain by eating Oreos. The sugar content is increasing the chemical which stimulates the reward center of your brain and makes you feel better. You're replacing one stimulus (your bf) with another (the Oreo cookies).

We all want love, but the type of love we're searching for is mostly rooted in fantasy, not reality. This explains why most relationships fail.

So sorry. Sometimes you are granted a favor, even when it doesn't seem so at the time. Finding out someone is a lying cheating scumbag before you give them one more minute of your time is a GIFT.

You do have to have a crappy relationship to recognize & appreciate a great one later on. No one deserves a cheater. It will be less painful as time goes by. Until then ice cream goes with Oreos but only for this next week. After that it's time to get on with living your life well. Good luck.

Well, one way to stop feeling so awful is to stop eating all those oreos.

You are also pretty, so you won't have a rough time finding another guy. Hell I bet you had 3 guys try hitting on you while you were sitting there eating oreos.

You should get outside and be with your friends. Go out, watch Deadpool or something. Forget the guy that banged another girl.
