A friend of mine, well, a friend of my sister's that I've been in touch with a lot on facebook recently, just messaged me to say her boyfriend of 8 years has dumped her. Whilst she had flu (she's now getting better and able to get online).
Very horrible.
But also very coincidentally convenient for me, because it is really difficult getting out and about when all your mates are in partnerships. Takes weeks of preparation. But now I have a friend to go out with - yay!!!
very horrible for her, but I guess you have found the silver lining. Hope you can cheer her up
