Chances are you probably already know that going through a breakup is the absolute worst. You know how it to put on a brave face for the world despite feeling like a complete mess inside. If your friend has just split with their SO, they might be going through that same process. They may be tempted to lie and tell you that they're really fine, when it's really the exact opposite. Getting used to a new normal without someone you were extremely close to is one the hardest things in the world, so your bestie probably needs you more now than ever. Get ready to bring on the distractions. The mission is to help your friend forget their ex. Set up a movie night, plan full-blown makeovers for a night out and cheer your friend up with some breakup gifts (yes, that's really a thing). Your friend will love you so much for it. If you aren't sure what to get them, there's here's a list of breakup gifts anyone going through a tough split from their boyfriend or girlfriend is sure to love.
