#brunchtalk: How to Get Over A Breakup

Yue Xu and Julie Krafchick
About this episode

No matter how long you dated, breakups are oh so painful. From unraveling a life with someone to mourning the life you'll never have, this is by far the hardest part of dating. Join us for this week's brunch talk as we talk about the first thing you should do after a breakup, when is the right time (or not) to start dating again, and how to move through, not over, this difficult time in your life.
