So, let's be honest -- breakups stink. No one likes them. It hurts even more when you're the person on the receiving end. Sometimes we need our pint of Ben and Jerrys, our large pizza with everything, and our nights filled with tears. But eventually, we all have to pick up the pieces and get it back together, which is exactly where Greg Behrendt and his wife, Amiira Ruotla-Behrendt come in.In their new book, It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken , the Behrendts walk you through all the things you need to do to get over him. First, they tackle the breakup itself to help you emerge victorious without the comfort of over indulgence. They tell you the hard truth about the situation and talk about all the things you didn't want to admit. There's no sugar coating here; it's frank advice about what the situation really was.
From there, the authors segue into the "Breakover" phase. You get the details in how to reclaim yourself, so you can look and feel better than before. According to the Behrendts, it's really just this simple -- you're better off without him, and it's time to show the world that's the case. The book details seven commandments that will help you get back into the dating pool and back to your old, non-hung-up self.
It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken picks up right where Greg Behrendt left off with his first book, He's Just Not That Into You. The first book armed you with the information you needed to realize it's over; the second book tells you how to get over it and move on. While parts of the book get redundant and don't always apply, it does contain some very effective steps and good information on how to get over that loser that used to be your boyfriend.
