There’s no doubt about it—breakups suck. But in the first few hours or days or weeks that follow, there’s one important truth you need to recognize: Some things can’t and shouldn’t be fixed, especially that loser who dumped you or forced you to dump him. IT’S CALLED A BREAKUP BECAUSE IT’S BROKEN, and starting right here, right now, it’s time to dry your tears, put down that pint of ice cream, log out of his e-mail, and open this book to Chapter One–and start turning your breakup into a breakover.
From Greg Behrendt, the co-author of the smash two-million copy bestseller He’s Just Not That Into You, comes IT’S CALLED A BREAKUP BECAUSE IT’S BROKEN—the ultimate survival guide to getting over Mr. Wrong and reclaiming your inner Superfox. From how to put yourself through "he-tox," to how to throw yourself a kick-ass pity party, Greg and his wife, Amiira, share their hilarious and helpful roadmap for getting past the heartache and back into the game. You will learn:
Why you shouldn’t call him—and what he’s thinking when you do
How to keep your friends and not lose your job
How to avoid breakup pitfalls: IMing, stalking, having sex with your ex
Reframing reality—seeing the relationship for what it was
How to transform yourself into a hot, happening Superfox and get a jump on the better, brighter future that awaits
Complete with an essential workbook to help you put the crazy down on paper and not take it out into the world, IT’S CALLED A BREAKUP BECAUSE IT’S BROKEN is a must-have manual for finding your way back to an even more rocking you.
The two witty authors of HE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU explain how to get over being dumped. Written with colorful, entertaining language, the hip lesson has two main points: Relationships usually end for GOOD reasons, and you really DON'T want a relationship that's not working. The writing is at times flamboyant, a quality diminished only slightly by the two excellent narrators. Both of these talents approach the content with enough balance and distance to avoid becoming clones of the two excitable writers, toning down the material and giving it more respectability. No matter how dejected listeners may feel, they'll be encouraged that better days are ahead. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
