Gene Pitney had it right (in my view), "Only love can break a heart only love can mend it again." Sure, time can dull the pain; but it takes love, from its various sources, to mend a broken heart. At least one kind of love has been expressed to you, Guest, in this thread. Coming here is among the best things you might have done. Surround yourself with those who love you. Can't hurt. Might help.

On the other hand, another song which leaps to mind is one that I will transcribe the lyrics for and post here soon. It is called, "Why Does Love Make You Stupid?". It is a rhetorical question, by the way. No answer is given in the song.

One interesting aspect of love is its penchant for finding you when you are least prepared for it. I am thinking of the time when I had decided to "lock it up" for a while so that nobody could become involved with me romantically. Guess what happened next. Yep. I played a gig at a coffeehouse and a waitress there captured my heart, lock, key and shackles!

It will find you again, I am sure. I sincerely hope that next time will be much more pleasant for you.
