Your new life begins after your break up…

My story is rather common; my boyfriend left me. It doesn’t matter why, I don’t think, I simply found myself all alone, again.

People told me « it takes time ». But that’s absurd! « It takes time » doesn’t mean anything. Time isn’t there with its little hands trying to make things better. Time is content to do what it does — pass. Very slowly.

So I came up with a plan. There are so many possibilities, so many treatments. I wan’t going to leave time up to time, I wasn’t going to take it by the hand and transform it into an awesome human experiment.

I imagined the most incredible thing: could this break up have been a blessing?

Audrey Merveille is an author, columnist and television presenter with plenty of experiences with break ups, both personal and professional.
