“	As my ballpark cheap beer buzz wore off...I began to worry about the ramifications of my day. Was Charlotte right? Were we supposed to get over an ex in a slow, painful way? Or should we ignore all the bad feelings and throw ourselves back in the game? In a world where leaving each other seems to be getting more and more frequent....What are the break-up rules?	”
	— Carrie
