I think it would depend on the situation in general. It would depend on why the person went through this breakup. For example, if they were cheated on and broke up with their partner I would give different advice than I would to someone who broke up on terms of domestic abuse, or was broken up with because they became pregnant, etc.

But I would be more than happy to give any and all advice I possibly can based on the situation.

The general rule of thumb for getting over a break up is that every individual is different. Depending on how you felt about your partner, how deep those feelings go, it can vary in times of "getting over" them, and sometimes you don't technically get over that person, even if you move on and find someone you feel more deeply for, its possible that a "first love" or someone who gave you something emotionally that can't be replaced or replicated (such as the first person to make you feel beautiful) will always hold a certain place in your heart.

Getting over a breakup goes in stages, just like loss of a loved one, and while your method may be different depending on what happened one thing always remains the same. Somewhere out there, and at some unknown point in time, someone will walk into your life and just make you think "wow, and to think I spent all that wasted time being upset about that last breakup".
