I asked on here before as far as reasons men dump women, but now I have decided it would be more useful for my readers to actually know what to do when they get dumped instead of just knowing the reasons why they got dumped. Here is a post with a bunch of suggestions what to do when a woman gets dumped by her boyfriend internet-dating-guru.blogspot.com/2008/08/what-to-do-if-your-boyfriend-dump...
Any more tips? Feel free to add more in the comment section on my blog post if you like. Thanks in advance!

I've never been in this situation, being male and all that, however a few of my friends have had their cars scratched with keys, or they've suddenly had to deal with too much pizza being delivered.

Yeah but to be fair I've seen a lot of guys do some pretty immature things as well, like send the ex-girlfriend bunches and bunches of roses, 'accidentally' bump into her at the supermarket or somewhere, or tell all his mates she wouldn't do certain things, or did too much of those certain things.
Sorry about bringing a bad taste to your thread, your post is actually really positive about the whole breakup thing and I'm throwing a spanner in the works with all this immature stuff, bowing out.

Well, I found that the activities were still largely revolving around the fact that you (general you) were dumped. Eat ice cream because you were dumped, get a spa treatment because you were dumped...that sort of thing.
Granted, I've never been dumped so I don't know for sure, maybe that happens naturally?
I have, however, gone through breakups and I think that a good piece of advice to give to anyone exiting a relationship (for any reason) is to make sure they take the time to adjust to being single again. That new found freedom can be awkward at first - particularly if you and the ex have a lot of mutual friends.
In fact, it would be great dating advice to tell people NOT to become clones of their significant other, to not give up individual activities, not make all friends mutual friends and so forth...that way the transition is much easier.
And I would so not ever stop eating ice cream treats for a man

It's better then Mail-Order Elaine's advice:
"First, tell your boyfriend don’t let the door hit you on the a$$."
And using Pain Killers, Shopping, and getting Plastic Surgery to "Boost your self-esteem back up" can't be anything but the best advice. Coming from someone with the nickname "Revolving Door" who has high hopes for her "Present Boyfriend".
Her blog is so priceless in many ways. Whenever I need a quick laugh, she's the first site I visit. People like her are really common for California; And sadly, they're also one of the reasons I gave up on having a social life anymore.
I'm serious, she really tells women to use pain killers to avoid dealing with the reality of breaking up: "And if you are really lucky, your medical procedures may even come with heavy duty pain killers, which are additional perks to being dumped by your jerk ex-boyfriend."
I pray that this woman seeks counseling from a psychiatrist. -
What part about it wasn't clear?
You don't have to cop out and play the 'just a joke' card. But you are right, it is just a joke. Everything people like you say is exactly that: A joke. I've read your stupid blog and I know exactly what you're all about and what your deal is. You women are a dime a dozen here in California, you're not being original with your schemes. It won't last forever, eventually you're gonna have to get back to Russia or wherever you came from; or just grow up and stop relying on your looks to get somewhere.
We've had this conversation before, and I don't want to get into it again with you. Why don't you just move to San Fernando?

You are getting more and more complicated. You are just not making any sense to me whatsoever. Are you suggesting that I live here illegaly because of my looks?? WTF?
PS: Now I am starting to remember, I said I was attracted to good looking, smart and accomplished guys (just like myself but in a male body) and you had a problem with that. I remember you suggested that I have to get dirt off the ground because being attracted to good looking and smart is just plain superficial.
