Product Description
There’s no doubt about it—breakups suck. But in the first few hours or days or weeks that follow, there’s one important truth you need to recognize: Some things can’t and shouldn’t be fixed, especially that loser who dumped you or forced you to dump him. It’s called a breakup because it’s broken, and starting right here, right now, it’s time to dry your tears, put down that pint of ice cream, log out of his e-mail, and open this book to Chapter One–and start turning your breakup into a breakover.
From Greg Behrendt, the co-author of the smash two-million copy bestseller He’s Just Not That Into You, comes It’s Called a Breakup Because It’s Broken--the ultimate survival guide to getting over Mr. Wrong and reclaiming your inner Superfox. From how to put yourself through “he-tox,” to how to throw yourself a kick-ass pity party, Greg and his wife, Amiira, share their hilarious and helpful roadmap for getting past the heartache and back into the game. You will learn:
• Why you shouldn’t call him—and what he’s thinking when you do
• How to keep your friends and not lose your job
• How to avoid breakup pitfalls: IMing, stalking, having sex with your ex
• Reframing reality—seeing the relationship for what it was
• How to transform yourself into a hot, happening Superfox and get a jump on the better, brighter future that awaits
Complete with an essential workbook to help you put the crazy down on paper and not take it out into the world, It’s Called a Breakup Because It’s Broken is a must-have manual for finding your way back to an even more rocking you.

 Not what I expected, 2008-07-11
Not what I expected... Instead of making me feel better, it made me feel worse! When your heart is broken, the last thing you want to hear is "it's called a break up because it's broken" and "move on already!" said to you over and over again, as if it were as simple as making a sandwich!
Instead of bringing the focus on yourself, and dealing gently with your heart and with pain in a constructive way, it brings more focus on the partner who "dumped" you, and what "loser" or "[...]" he is for doing this to a "super fox" (eesh!) like yourself. I highly doubt that building hate or frustration this way is of any good, just as I doubt that numerous break-up stories should make you feel better. It's the last thing you want to hear when your heart is aching. In those moments, you'd want to deal with the pain and understand the situation, and maybe being encouraged that there are wonderful men out there, that would love to be with someone like you!

 With all the mayo in the world, you can't make chicken salad out of chicken Sh****..., 2008-06-27
Other than the real encouraging, funny way that Greg and Amiira Behrendt tell these stories, they are all based on just common sense rules.
Some might claim that it's not rocket science to know that you shouldn't call your ex, but the truth that when we are broken hearted, we can't even go through life, let alone using common sense.
This book would be wonderful for you if you got out of the shock phase and got into the grieving stage. It might even help you understand that it's time to get out of the shock phase as it did to me.
These sections of pure accurate symptoms don't apply to one gender; they apply to broken hearted people who had their dreams terminated, regardless if they were dumped or if they ended the relationship.
I highly recommend this book to every body that went through putting themselves out there because they believed in love, now it's time to believe in yourself and know that you have so much to offer and as Greg and Amiira say: "remember, doubt means don't". Let's face it; we all had our doubts about relationships that later didn't work, doubts were there but blinded with love.
Stop wondering why, there are simply no answers. As mentioned in the book, trying to figure out why will only lead to more hurt and more pain.

Loved it!, 2008-05-28
I was given, "He's just not that into you" after I left my ex because he couldn't commit to our relationship long-term. I recently broke up with another Man because our relationship was broken. Although I made the decision to end the relationship, and saw the writing on the wall, it was still an adjustment that caused me some mental anguish. I read the book hoping that it would inspire me to feel good, and it did just that. Some of the content is a little obvious, and I certainly didn't need those obvious questions answered, but it was truly enjoyable. If you've read "He's just not that into you" then you will not be surprised by the tone of the book. If you're reading this book because you need someone to tell you that you are in fact psycho if you are spending every waking moment stalking your ex, then maybe you need to seek some professional help!

A mean book..., 2008-04-18
I thought this book was mean and harsh... If you just got your heart REALLY BROKEN don't get it. You don't need to be depressed more than you already are. It was written by a happy couple. Who wants breakup advise from a happy couple?
