For those of you out there that think you are going crazy because you were dumped... here's a good article to explain what's going on with your mind- and hopefully you aren't nearly as insane as Lisa Nowak
Could a Man Drive You Crazy? - The Science Behind Jealousy and Rage - Oprah.com (http://www.oprah.com/article/relationships/dating/200708_omag_snap/6)
I know we have all done something crazy or embarrassing when trying to get over a break up - any funny stories out there, or life lessons that might help others not to follow in your footsteps?

Created a CD filled with love songs and in between each song was a sappy movie line proclaiming love... left flowers and this CD on her doorstep. Needless to say, it didn't get me anywhere.
Was also out at a HUGE bar scene here in my city and actually broke down in tears when a mutual friend of ours told me she was there seeing another guy with my same name... my friends rushed me out of there like the President with Secret Service agents. Was out celebrating my b-day... probably the single most humiliating experience I have had up to date.

I've done something pretty similar. Not for this ex, but the one prior - there was a movie we went to see that we both really enjoyed - when it came out on DVD I bought it - put a picture of the two of us in the inside cover, then walked it to his house and put it on his windshield for him to discover later (not sure whatever came of that but it didn't help me out at all).
Just a few weeks ago, my ex was in the bar flirting with some other girl when we had actually brought him to the bar. I did the crying thing ran into the hallway, just lost it. Emotions make you do some weird things.

Huge difference Bella... I am a guy and a pretty well put together guy. It is pretty humiliating to walk out of a bar crying when you are known for being a confident and together dude.

O yea definitely different for a guy. It's a tough situation for guys because they aren't supposed to be emotional - supposed to be a rock - when girls are supposed to get emotional. Its hard enough to deal when crying is expected, but when you have to bottle all of your emotions up, that must be so much harder :(

It happens. Wasn't the greatest moment of my life, but it happens. Oh well! We live and we learn
