It literally means: breaking of a heart. Or at least it feels like that. Most people will not know what a 'heartbreak' is until they actually experienced it.

It is when someone suffers from great grief, sadness, devastation, and disappointment. A 'heartbreak' usually happens when two people break up with each other. For example: when a boy breaks up with his loving girlfriend because he loves another girl, this man's girlfriend will feel 'heartbroken'. The girl loves him a lot, but when she finds out that her love doesn't like her back, she feels heartbroken, sad, and devastated.

A heartbreak could also happen when your crush gets a girlfriend/boyfriend who is not YOU. You might also feel sad, devastated and brokenhearted.

Many heartbroken people feel like they just want to die. You may not understand this, but once you experience a heartbreak, you will just feel terrible. Trust me, I have a lot of experience in heartbreaks... But, no matter how bad it feels, remember that if the one who breaks your heart doesn't see how wonderful you are, he doesn't deserve you! :)

The worst feeling ever you want them back but apart of you wants to let go you feel as if everything around you reminds you of them every love song you hear sounds like compleate utter bull shit because you know that no one can love eachother forever they will always say "forever and always" but the person who broke your heart just wanted a little fling but the thing is you trusted them to keep your heart safe thinking maybe shes the one but no she just left you and found a new man like what the hell but love sucks i never want to fall inlove again.

It may be different for everybody. Most commonly people feel their heart ache and can't stop crying.
I felt numb and didn't let myself cry. If I started crying I would do everything to stop it. So you really don't get a good cry. You start to feel extremely sad. Possibly have a hard time talking to your friends about it. Feel a lot of self doubt like feeling embarrassed and stupid for falling in love. A lot of regret comes in. Then something may happen, like them saying hi to you (and/or) something related happened. All of the sudden that built up sadness, anger, heart break makes you breakdown. Your friends may start to notice your distance. Don't do what I did. Otherwise you're stuck. Don't ignore your feelings. Don't be ashamed to cry, just don't. It feels like a very sticky wax being pulled off slowly on your skin. I chose to not reflect the situation, the memories, the relationship, and myself. I distracted my thoughts and kept my mind busy instead. If you can relate to this I would feel a great relief because this feels like it isn't normal. If you went through a break up and looked this up just know your a bad bitch ;) and I know you can get through this <3

The feeling of sadness, and darkness all around you, it feels like you cant move because if you do, you may never want to move again.

Its not always from someone breaking up with you, it can be family, because they just dont understand the pain, or friends, because you cant trust them and they havent been what you call a "friend" or even grief, the loss of someone special.

Heartbreak is lying on the bathroom room floor, crying for days on end, trying your damn hardest to breathe while wondering where did it all go so very wrong? And you're trying to figure out how are you going to get up from this, and pretend nothing is wrong? All in while, trying to figure out about what to do about the gashing hole in your chest....

When you like a girl a lot and then you see her picture with another guy at a toga partyarm in arm and realise you have a very small chance because you go to different colleges.
