really hard for me. I was raised by a incredibly stubborn, independent and self-sufficient woman, so, shocking no one, I grew up to be stubborn,
fiercely independent and self-sufficient lady.
I learned to ask for and accept help, but it took a long time, and my built-in reflex is still to tell people to go fuck themselves when they are like "I'm
here for Love Hurts: Buddhist Advice for the Heartbroken. So when a writer is like "I'll be with you through this journey and it will be OK, we'll
do this together", I have an Asking for help is really hard for me.
So when a writer is like "I'll be with you through this journey and it will be OK, we'll do this together", I have an urge to throw the book out the
window. But I also know that Lodro Rinzler wrote these words as a genuine offer of friendship to his readers. So I roll my eyes and keep reading.
Because as annoying as he sometimes sound, Rinzler really put himself out there to write this book: he met with people - often perfect strangers -
who were willing Love Hurts: Buddhist Advice for the Heartbroken open up about their heartbreaks and he listened to their stories, never judged
them, shared in their pain and compiled this little collection of advice based on their experience; what worked for them, and how they found ways
to thread water until they felt better.
Knowing that, I really can't throw the book out the window. But I have on a couple of occasions, thrown it at people who needed to read a few of
its pages. This book is not laid-out traditionally. Each chapter addresses a different angle of heartbreak, so you can skip passages to go directly to
what concerns you. Romantic heartbreak is a big part of what is discussed in the book, but it is also realistic about the fact that partners are not the
only ones who have the power to break your heart.
Family members, friends, colleagues and society also has the power to abandon and betray you, to make you feel like you might never get better
or be able to trust and care ever again. Navigating that kind of emotional turmoil is tricky at best, and utterly devastating at worst.
Each short chapter addresses different stages of heartbreak and what you can do about it without ever denying how you feel. Because the worse
thing you can possibly do in such a situation is to pretend that you are fine.
It's pointless to recap the advice Rinzler wrote in the book; the best I can do is to simply say that his silly little "I'm here for you" actually really
helps. Once you can wrap your head around heartbreak being caused by expectations not being met, and once you understand that it is possible to
recycle pain into a learning opportunity, you are already halfway up the hill.
I spend most of my twenties being Love Hurts: Buddhist Advice for the Heartbroken. Wrong partners, bad friends, unskilled parents, unrealistic
societal expectations, a world full of people who deny other people's humanity with every step and action they take: all these things shattered me
on a daily basis. I didn't have a waking moment that didn't feel like I had a huge piece of lead stuck in my chest.
After one particularly thorny breakup, I found myself in a space that was completely mine for the first time in my life, and that opportunity to really
get to know and love myself no distractions! And so many of the small things that helped me are actually somewhere in Rinzler's book It looks
cheesy, and if you are anything like me, you won't be caught dead reading it on the bus, but if you are heartbroken, it's very likely there's a few line
in this book that can help out a wee bit.

to read, and that's how it feels when you've been heartbroken.
But this book isn't just about romantic love; you can experience heartbreak in different ways. The thing I liked most is that Rinzler doesn't sugar
coat anything; he's direct and honest, but also sympathetic and supportive, and shares personal experiences. It's set up in a manner in which you
can go to whatever chapter you need most at the time. I don't practice Bud Any book that starts off with "Well fuck" is the kind of book I want to
read, and that's how it feels when you've been heartbroken.
I don't practice Buddhism, but took a lot from his teachings and advice based on it. I read this in a day, which is probably not the point of the
book, but I'm sure I will refer back to it in the future. All in all, I would recommend this book to anyone because we've all experienced heartbreak.

Share this book with someone who is heartbroken. Consult this book when you are wondering if you should leave him. Pull it out when you are
missing someone you can't see again. Pick out the chapter that fits the current hell you are experiencing. Breathe, sleep, eat, read, meditate, repeat,

I didn't Love Hurts: Buddhist Advice for the Heartbroken the author to reinvent the wheel here but advice such as "just sleep, even if you think you

all. Thanks for suggesting meditation but there are plenty of reasons for people suffering from insomnia while trying to overcome a traumatic
experience and meditation is first of all not the only answer and secondly also doesn't work for everyone.
I found this entire book to be filled with rather shallow and limited advice. It's a one solution fits all approach I find psychologically damaging
because if said solution does not work, it automarically gives the advice taker feel even worse, incompetent, depressed. So in short, I was
eyerolling my way through much of the author's naive, simplistic Love Hurts: Buddhist Advice for the Heartbroken short-sighted solutions.

The text is supportive but unflinching, and the advice genuinely practical. Useful for all kinds of heartbreak, not just romantic heartbreak as the title
and cover seem to imply.
