Getting dumped screws with our minds and hearts. How could it not? Heartbreak shows no mercy, crushing without an ounce of remorse. Luckily, Rihanna has been giving away some pearls of wisdom over the years to help with a brutal breakup. Gotta hand it to her. Rih Rih knows what’s up.
Here are the stages of being dumped, as told by Rihanna.
1. Anger
"Got my middle finger up. I don’t really give a fuck."
2. Frustration
"Don’t tell me you’re sorry ‘cause you’re not."
3. Crying
"If I cry, it's because I'm very angry and I can't do anything about it because I've run into a dead end. That's when the tears would come down."
4. Allowing for truth and vulnerability
"It’s tougher to be vulnerable than to actually be tough."
5. Self-affirmation
"You have to just accept your body. You may not love it all the way, but you just have to be comfortable with it, comfortable with knowing that that's your body."
6. Self-acceptance
"I'm crazy and I don't pretend to be anything else."
7. Acceptance of the situation
"God just has a way of working things out the way he wants to and you have no say in that."
8. Retaking control of your life
"They're gonna keep knocking away until all this comes crashing down. But I'm not gonna ever crash. I'm in control."
9. Self-improvement
"I don’t get bitter, I just get better."
