There’s no doubt about it—breakups suck. But in the first few hours or days or weeks that follow, there’s one important truth you need to recognize: Some things can’t and shouldn’t be fixed, especially that loser who dumped you or forced you to dump him. It’s called a breakup because it’s broken, and starting right here, right now, it’s time to dry your tears, put down that pint of ice cream, log out of his e-mail, and open this book to Chapter One–and start turning your breakup into a breakover.

From Greg Behrendt, the co-author of the smash two-million copy bestseller He’s Just Not That Into You, comes It’s Called a Breakup Because It’s Broken--the ultimate survival guide to getting over Mr. Wrong and reclaiming your inner Superfox.

Customer Reviews

Another good one from Greg B.
What I like about this author is his honesty. And this book, as well as 'He's Just Not that Into You' is honest. And in this book, he tells a girl how to get over a breakup. And that's not so easy to do, is it? However, there are some really good points he makes and some really good ideas. It's not easy and we should all feel the pain, but at some point, it IS time to move on. And this book really, really helps a girl to do that. And for that, it gets five stars. I also liked, for moving on purposes, Man Magnet: How to Be the Best Woman You Can Be in Order to Get the Best Man-A Guide To Dating (Revised Edition).

Awesome! Makes u get over him quickly!
When I broke up with my boyfriend of 4 years I just wanted to die, but all along I knew he wasn't the one, but the sadness was there: I would cry day and night, I didn't have high expectations for this book, I 1st read an excerpt in Cosmo it made me laugh!, I bought it and since then I laugh every day with it, it has help me understand why he wasn't the one and that my love life isn't over, one part says "You can take all those dreams and expectations that u had 4 a relationship and take them to someone who will make them come true" but all along you will be laughing and understanding that you need to move on and that it's the healthiest thing for you to do!!! I highly recommend it!!

This book should be required reading for any woman who has had her heart broken!
I was dumped by my boyfriend of a year. We had talked marriage and I was completely convinced that he was "the one". I didn't see see the breakup coming and I had no idea how to handle it. After nearly 48 hours of non-stop crying, I managed to pull myself off of the couch and get to the bookstore. I wasn't looking for anything in particular, but I was drawn to this book because of the title.

Through my tears, I managed to read this book in just a few days - highlighting and writing in the margins as I went along. Then I reread it. And even now, I still carry the book with me. (My breakup was only a month ago.) When I'm having a bad day, I pull out the book and read marked passages. I swear - I don't know if I would be functioning if it had not been for this book.

It's full of the stuff you need to hear (even if you are not ready to listen just yet). The book will make you laugh and cry, but mostly it will make you think.

If you've had your heart broken, please read this book. It will help you more than you ever think it will.
