Right now you need to go hang out with your friends, have a good time, shoot pool, go to the gun/outdoor sports/electronics show, spend saturday afternoon hungover watching the John Wayne movie marathon, hit the gym, and do everything else you missed because you were dating.

After a while, you'll start dating another girl, and probably a couple more after that. Eventually, you'll meet one that you trust, love, etc. Then, in 15-20 years, you will be enjoying dinner at a restaurant with the beautiful Goddess of Thunder and a couple of handsome little Thunderlings and this chick that dumped you will come to your table to take your order. After telling her about your wonderful family, career and recent vacation, you will ask her how she has been doing.

Best feeling ever. I know it sounds petty, but it's the best feeling ever.
