Girls are, by designs, creatures of heartbreak. We are inherently vulnerable to the torment which comes from investing too much into our relationships with other people. It is all but inevitable that someone or something down the line is going to break us. And the problem with that is, of course, how do we deal with it? Well, fear not, I have the fix for your girl problems. (Guys, pay attention too! This will come in handy!)

Problem: Girl Feud: So you got in a fight with one of your girlfriends. It happens to the best of us. You know you can’t possibly stay mad at her for very long and the same is true for her, but, for now, the silent treatment really sucks. So what do you do to ease the pain?

Solution: Action Film and Chinese Food. Grab one of your (preferably non-mutual) friends and sit down with your favorite msg-enriched carb-protein combo and delve into 2 and a half hours of muscular guys performing manly feats. Trust me, you’ll quickly forget all about how Ashley and Sarah didn’t invite you out last week.

Problem: Rejection.  This is a tough one. Maybe you were just broken up with. Maybe you saw the guy you have a crush on flirting with some random girl (and does he think she’s prettier than you?!!) Maybe that guy you’ve been talking to you hasn’t texted you all day even though it’s already 9pm and he texts you everyday and maybe he’s just busy but how long does it take to send a text message???? Either way, your self esteem has taken a hit due to the actions of other people and you can’t control it.

Solution: John Tucker Must Die and Pizza. The ultimate heartbreak combo. Because you’re feeling slightly less than emotionally stable and somewhere in your mind you resonate with the girls who just want revenge on the stupid boy who hurt them (and you secretly want to be Brittany Snow, admit it.) So have that fourth slice of grease-slathered deliciousness because who are you trying to impress anyway?

Problem: That darn second X-Chromosome. Has it been four weeks already? Yup, it has. You think you’d get used to that visit from Mother Nature, yet somehow it’s a whole new horror each month. Welcome that time when all you do is wish you were a man and constantly want to lay in bed and whine. I mean I guess it could be worse…. you could be pregnant. But nonetheless, you feel ugly, you have no motivation to put pants on, and there is nothing short of a satanic entity desperately clawing at your abdomen trying to get out.

Solution: A bag of Reese’s peanut butter cups and a Nicholas Sparks film. Let’s face it. You’re emotional and in very literal pain. Fighting it is only going to make it worse. So, pull out your comfiest blanket and favorite candy and let the emotions roll as you watch beautiful people face all sorts of insurmountable odds to be with one another. This is the only time you will allow yourself to fully delve into the sappiness, so just let it happen. Keep your tissues close and wait to drown in your emotions. Oddly enough, it’ll make you feel better.
