As with every year, once the holiday season comes to an end, many relationships seem to come to an end as well. It is incredibly hard to console a person who has just been "let go" because we have all been there before. Besides making them a card carrying member of the dumped club, all you can do is listen and once again be reminded that people are complicated and sometimes blind.
In an attempt to help my best friends out of their sadness I have come up with a mix that includes direct songs about break ups, guilty pleasures, songs to wallow in, songs to get mad at, songs with advice, and a whole lot of love (sorry led heads, that song doesn't actually make the cut).
Also a word to the dumped: Whoever just broke your heart, they aren't worth your time or energy. Good riddance and bring on the new chances at love!
