Break - Ups psa - Uc Berkeley

April's Roommate: This is my roommate April, she just broke up with her boyfriend and she's going through a rough time. I invite her out with me, but all she wants to do is lie on the couch listening to that Adele song on repeat all day and all night. Shavon: There are other ways to deal with this. April's Roommate: She didn't wanna be around people at my birthday party so I let her be the DJ. Every other song she played was that Adele track. You had Lady Gaga! Adele, Jay-Z! Adele, Black Eyed Peas! Adele. I don't even think Adele listens to Adele that much. People started to leave the party it was embarrassing. Shavon: A healthy route to dealing with your break-up would be, definitely, take a good look in the mirror and just cry. It's ok to cry. Cry for a little bit, but then as soon as you've cried it all out, don't look back. Put your bootstraps on and just keep walking. Defriend (Male 1): Hello. So I defriended my ex-Boyfriend on Twitter, Instagram, G chat, I chat, Facebook, Spotify, & Words with Friends and then I freaked out because I actually wanna be in his life, so I refriended him on Twitter, Instagram, G chat, I chat, Facebook, Spotify, & Words with Friends. Erika: Come on, there's a better way to handle this. Defriend (Male 1): Now the friending and defriending have become a daily ritual. I wake up, I make toast and then I spend hours friending and defriending him. What should I do? It would be so much easier if they made Words with ex-boyfriends. Erika: A good way to deal with your break-up feelings would be to join something new. Maybe like a club or a sport so that you can now transfer your previous commitment to a new commitment. Male 2: After my break-up I felt so betrayed, I ripped up everything that reminded me of my ex-girlfriend. The love letters, posters, ticket stubs, the life-size card board cutout, and I ripped up her cashmere sweater. Yeah, I know a sweater! Shavon: Uh, I wouldn't go that far. Male 2: I just wanna find someone new...preferably someone who won't rip my heart out. Shavon: Some activities you can do after being broken up with: definitely work out. Work out, run, get in your cardio, lift weights, just be the sexiest ex you can be so when they see you again, their jaw will drop.
