Our culture has very little to offer people who are heartbroken. It does not respond to this sort of tragedy well. All anybody can give you are rehearsed platitudes: It’s for the best. Time will heal. You have to pick yourself up and move on. There is someone better out there. Take this time to focus on you. Enjoy being single. Don’t dwell. Distract yourself. Stay social.
This sort of generic advice is as good as it gets. But it isn’t actually good enough. Except maybe for simple people in very small amounts of pain.
