These days it seems quite a few friends are going through breakups and that heartbroken feeling has got them feeling a bit blue.  Its awful to see someone suffer from a broken heart; its hard to go through it yourself too.  But, there are ways a broken heart can be healed. A friend of mine was having a bad day and a girl moment missing her ex boyfriend.
