One thing that we’ve learned from movies, is that you can’t go through a break up without crashing on your couch for weeks (or moths) surrounded by pizza leftovers, chocolate wrapping, dirty clothes and empty alcohol bottles.

Just imagine yourself: you’re watching TV, holding an ice-cream bucket on your lap, a spoon in your right hand and the remote control in the left one. Something’s missing, isn’t it? Well of course! The depressing break up songs that you keep humming over and over again! Sometime soon you’ll reach the I hate your guts or the I will survive stage, but don’t worry, there are break up songs for every break up phase you’re in.

Here are 10 break up songs that will either make you feel better or a whole lot worse! Enjoy them wisely!
