I can’t read, sleep or motivate myself since my girlfriend broke up with me
DEAR DEIDRE: SINCE I broke up with my girlfriend, I’ve been finding it impossible to study.
I am a 17-year-old lad in the middle of A levels and was on track for top grades until recently.

No issue is too small, too large or too embarrassing. Read our personal replies here.
But my girlfriend dumped me out of the blue in September. She is 17 and we’d been together for two years.
Now I can’t concentrate on anything. I can’t read, sleep or motivate myself.

DEIDRE SAYS: Losing your first love is devastating.
Try to keep busy and see lots of your friends and family. In time, you will look back at your first love with fondness.
