Those first couple times you break up, it's hard. Honestly, there's not a whole lot that people can tell you to make you feel better, especially if you're heads-over-heels with your squeeze. My dad always told me, "son, you'll feel better after a while, now go sweep out the shed row." There was a method to his madness, it was to keep me moving. Keep moving, you still have a life. Life goes on. Let it go. Letting go is cathartic. When she/he figures out you let it go, they'll want you back, but you won't care at that point, you have moved on. Begging, rationalizing, creeping, stalking, none of that will work, if it did, you wouldn't want what it will be after that anyway. Just let it go, my friends. You can't go backwards in time, life never moves in a straight line. You'll see, and you will be great.

Our greatest form of social control is through coerced imitation. We're told to look down upon these original tribal societies as lacking in culture, intelligence, and basically amounting to uncivilized savages, when in reality they often experienced a greater level of freedom and community than we do in the modern day, and many of these ancient tribal societies had great inventions in architecture, mathematics, agriculture, etc. In turn, upper class society since the late 19th century has set the standard for what the "pinnacle of civilization" is "supposed" to be. In doing so, we're slowly being conditioned to accept these stratified aspects of society where the wealthy upper class is something to respect and aspire to, while the lower classes are looked down upon as we might look down upon "lesser" civilizations. Thus, by imitating the upper class and trying to associate with them, and feeling shame when we cannot live up to these ridiculous notions of what it means to be valued according to nothing more than arbitrary factors like wealth and birthright, we are subconsciously being controlled and coerced into behaving within the rigid structures and formalities set in precedent by the 19th and 20th century bourgeoisie.
Ironically, these standards were often set on a foundation of racism, as freed slaves and people of color being permitted to participate in business and society might elevate themselves to a respectable status, and so they had to make races/cultures seem "inferior" regardless of wealth and status, creating a Euro-centric pinnacle during a time when Europe was about to engage in one of the most savage catastrophes in human history (WWI and WWII), while trying to make more peaceful, though technologically backward societies seem less civlized and more savage and less desirable to imitate. We sort of broke free of this thinking during the 60's when people actually looked to these communal tribal socieities as a means of escaping the violence and social stigmas of thise Euro-centric imitations, but the world was gradually adapting to this concept on the whole, and modern conveniences started to trickle down into the average household, so that by the 1980's people were being brainwashed with pop culture and television to mindlessly accept these standards, and that trend has continued to the modern day. We're mindless drones in pursuit of a standard set by the racist elite of the early 20th century, and we have to first stop chasing these vapid things before we can redirect ourselves in the right direction, away from the pursuit of wealth and status, and towards a more community-based society.
