I never thought I'd ever be looking forward to not being in love. Heh.In times of suicidal grief, I find that episodes of The Simpsons really do help, if not for anything else, it does take your mind away from the pain for 23 minutes.
I wouldn't recommend listening to music though. I can only speak for myself, but I often find that music can make things tougher as it often clarifies your emotions and makes them more forceful and bitter. Last time I was in love I listened to a certain song for a 5-hour bus trip back to my home town, staring the girl whom I obsessed with in the back of the head. It wasn't good.
The song was Dream Theater - Space dye vest.
"Love is an act of blood and i'm bleeding
A pool in the shape of a heart
[...]
"but he's the sort who can't know
Anyone intimately, least of all a
Woman. he doesn't know what a woman
Is. he wants you for a possession,
Something to look at like a painting or an ivory box.
Something to own and to display. he doesn't want you to be real,
Or to think or to live. he doesn't love you, but i love you.
I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and feelings, even when
I hold you in my arms. it's our last chance... it's our last chance..."
Extremely powerful and very sad song.
