The Perks of Being a Heartbreaker

Prologue

heart·break·er (noun) : A person, event, or thing causing heartbreak.

heart·break (noun) : Intense and overwhelming grief, especially through disappointment in love.

Everyone knows what a heartbreak feels like. At least if you haven't experienced it now, you will eventually.

Those who experience heartbreaks are mainly those who put their hearts on their sleeves. And they would continue to feel that pain, when they don't learn from their past mistakes. Which almost everyone does.

Heartbreaks can be caused by many different circumstances and that's what makes this emotion easily recognized by nearly every person on the planet.

It can result from the loss of a loved one, a partner, a friend and even a close pet.

Or it can be caused from disappointment, betrayal or a change from known surroundings.

It might not even be a loss at all but a sense of loss, or the realization that the love of the person you care most for is drifting far from where it had always been.

Heartbreak can eventually lead to depression.

The depression caused by heartbreak creates a barrier that can prevent us from feeling and experiencing life to the fullest, in all aspects.

I experienced heartbreak before, many times actually. Not from a lover, but from my close friends.

I was betrayed, countless times. But what broke my heart the most, was when my best friend betrayed me.

He was my first love, my only true love actually. I knew him for years, and I loved him for almost a year, and that's when it happened.

My own best friend told me that she liked him too. Nothing could hurt me more than that, especially when she knew I loved him. I smiled and acted like everything was fine. But nothing was fine. Not anymore.

I feel like a fool. I should've realised this earlier. I mean, what type of best friend would not support you, when you're trying to be with your first love? Would not be happy when you made progress?

And I should've listened to that scared and anxious voice inside my heart, that told me of the possibility of my own best friend crushing on my first love.

But I denied it. Since I trusted her so much, I truly did. Or maybe I was scared to face the truth...

But now, I learn that I was truly a fool.

But not anymore.

I'm no longer the girl that's fine when she has her heart broken countless times. I will no longer be the girl that keeps on forgiving those who hurt me; those who broke my heart.

I will not be that kind of girl ever again.

No longer the brokenhearted girl; I am now the heartbreaker.
