Sex and the City

This is one breakup drug it's okay to overdose on. I'm especially fond of hating men who break up on post-its and men who make up and break up with you a million times before marrying skinny bitches with bad grammar, then dumping them and trying to get back together with you. Anyway, you know what I mean.

Sam Cooke

Bring it on home to me = the best/saddest breakup song ever. If you can stand men long enough to listen to one sing his soul out about love and loss, then this is the guy for you. If you need a little more girl time before you dive back into dude-land, don't worry. You'll get here eventually.
