writes: I recently broke up with my boyfriend of almost two years because he was immature and would overreact by doubting his love quickly or taking it out on me when he was envious of something good happening to me. However, I am the kind of person that is only happy when they're helping others. I spend time taking care of myself too, but I miss taking care of someone else so close. I've never felt so alone or unwanted in my life even though I'm totally over not being with my ex. I miss having someone I guess and I can't seem to fill the void, especially with time. Any advice.thanks

Have you thought about doing some volunteer work? There are plenty of elderly people in nursing homes who would just love a visit....or volunteer at your local humane society animal shelter....or even at a hospital where soldiers who have served in Iraq may be recuperating from injuries....this just to start....there's lots of opportunities to taking care of others.

 I understand. I need to break up with mine too and I know how lonely it will be. It will suck! But, I am preparing myself for the time alone. If you broke up, its because it's Broken!!! The thing that is saving me and making me feel soooooooooooooo much better is the book, "Its Called a Breakup because its Broken". I cannot put it down. I read it over and over. It has hundreds of stories of people just like us, how they felt like shit, and how they got over it. Also, its very funny, and will make you crack up! Run, do not walk and buy it. Its at Barnes & Noble and Target. Good luck!
