Here Lie All the Boys Who Broke My Heart
Prologue
How do you fix a broken heart? If you ask Google, it’s going to give you a list of dos and don’ts such as: avoid contact,
get rid of personal objects and mementos, find a new source of happiness. If you ask my best friends, they’ll tell you to
get absolutely plastered and hook up with his friends. So, it’s different for everyone, I think. There is no right or wrong
way to heal. I myself have a different approach. When someone breaks my heart, I get out my journal and a bottle of wine and
I write him a eulogy.
I know how that sounds—weird, creepy, unhinged, all of the above—but it’s not like anyone sees it but me. It’s my closure
and my therapy, because if you break my heart then you are dead to me. Fictionally. So imagine my surprise when all the boys
who broke my heart started dying.
Literally.
