I thought it might help if we let each other know songs that we listen to that make us think of our EX.


you can give and explanation of why the song makes you think of them and how you feel while your listening to it.


I don't know if people think this is a healthy thing to do but music is my life, it has helped me with a lot good and bad that I have endured in life.


the song that is on constant replay right now is:


Garth Brooks, More then a Memory


when I hear it I take the words SHE and put HE in their place.

I like Cher during a break up. Song for the Lonely and We All Sleep Alone are two of my favorites. I really like them because they let you feel bad, but they're not songs that throw you in the pit of despair.


Some ones that really fit with my last break up were I Would've Loved You Anyway and When You Love Someone Like That. WYLSLT is a pretty deep song about loving more than you were loved.


I wish I could find more empowering, over it break up songs. Over It by Katharine McPhee and Strong Enough by Cher are my favorites there.

I refuse to listen to any songs that remind me of my ex.

One of them is definitely "Hey There Delilah" by Plain White Tees. I used to sing it to him and he would love it and thought I was so cute. Now whenever I hear it I immediately turn the station. If it's playing somewhere where I can't shut it off, I leave as quickly as I can.

I hope when he listens to it he feels something. I would just start crying if I ever heard it.
