Valentine's day is over. Perhaps, it's now time to talk about the other part of love Break-Up -specifically the aftermath. For some people this could be a depressing time or a hilarious part of the whole experience. To me talking about relationships, and not to mention tips to keep one or how to heal a broken heart, there is always a funny part, not to tag it as ironic, in the aftermath of a break-up. And, it is not about the things that you throw away but those mementoes that you keep after a relationship ends. If it doesn’t still bring up tears wearing on the T-shirt that your partner gave you on a special occasion -unless you haven't already thrown it away, a big laughter breaks out since you read again what she wrote about her love for you in a poem or in those hopeless lines on napkin. Beyond any doubt, her declaration is now an irony or a hilarious one for sure–if you moved on. The sarcasm depicted in your ex's words lies on coming into account...

              A woman in love with her husband breaks down when she finds out that he has an affair with another woman –whom he loves. The broken-hearted wife bursts out yelling out outrageous adjectives at the mistress , who is the blame for the split of her marriage. The wife wonders how a woman could do this to a decent person. For her, this woman was one of no morals and unprincipled, not to label this woman as a bitch.            The wife parts company with her husband, and each one moves on. After a time, the woman, who was once married, falls in love again, but this new man isn't single. Her best friend, who knows all her story, asks her in astonishment, "I don't understand you... how could you be involved with a married man after having suffered what his poor wife does?" "That's the way as life is," she answered simply. So Decency is relative .
