c) really wish you knew where you could find a leather jacket like
that.
3. You heard through the grapevine your ex's latest girlfriend dumped
him-big-time. The runor mill has it that he's totally moping.

deserves!"
b) You ask someone who knows what happend. You can't help but be a
little curious.

so here's your chance. He's sad, he's vulnerable, who knows?

checking out the newest portable basketball hoops, you say:

a ball just to show him how well you're shooting these days.

guys do, so I'll see ya there." Then you return to the hoops
and wonder how to get your parents to buy you one.

~10-17 Points~
*HANG ONTO YOUR HEART*
You're anything but ready to look for love. You're still not over
the last go-round, and you've gotta keep Cupid on ice while you work
through your feelings. Make a serious effort to stay away from him and
his friends for the time being. Put the CD with "your" song at the back
of your stack so you're not tempted to play it. You've gotta clear your
head so you can get over this thing and be really ready to play the
romance game again.

~18-22 Points~
*YOUR HEART'S ALMOST THERE*
You've worked through some of the yuck feelings that go with lost
love. For the most part you're over your initial sadneww. OK, so maybe
you're still a little, well, angry at him-and you might even be feeling
the teensiest urge for revenge.
There are signs that you still have a way to go in the healing
process, so now's not the time to go for a new guy. If you do the
rebound thing, you're bound to give yourself a duble helping of hurt-
and the new guy too. Take it slow and work through your emotions.
Soon you'll be recharged and ready to make sparks fly with some other
guy.

*DUST OFF YOUR HEART-IT'S READY TO ROCK!~
Maybe you did your time in Agony City. You cried, you raged and
maybe you even wished he and any girl he hooked up with would drop off
the face of the planet. But now...it's different. These days when you
see him, your heart just doesn't race like it used to. You don't mind
it when he wins something he went for. It doesn't rock your calm that
he's eyeing the new girl. After all, you're feeling kind of heated up
about a new gottie yourself. So go for it, girlfriend. Your heart's
healed after its last break and romance is out there waiting for you to
find it!
