Top 79 Best Broken Heart Quotes with Images

Broken heart syndrome is the feeling of emotional loss, despair, and emptiness that follows the end of a romance or committed relationship.

When we break up, we are often too busy to deal with our feelings and can be overwhelming. This can make it difficult to move on. Sometimes when we’re in a relationship, we don’t feel that our feelings are important. We think they should be ignored and that we should focus on the relationship. It is essential to honor your feelings and to communicate them openly with your partner.

Some people get depressed; some self-medicate with drugs or alcohol, some over-compensate by trying to keep busy. Other people cope by picking themselves back up and moving on. It’s usually a good idea to talk to someone before you try this method (or any other for that matter).

Here are 79 inspirational quotes that can help you get over a broken heart:
