Heartbreak --> Investment Banking
Throughout high school I was an average student who didn't have any motivation or drive to succeed. After finding out my so called gf at the time cheated on me, I used all my anger to start working harder in the classroom. I ended up going to business school and now have a job lined up in IB. I can't explain why a heartbreak made me want to have a career in finance especially during a pointless relationship in high school. To be honest, I probably wouldn't be where I am today without it. Is anyone else in the same boat or is it just me?
Bro the same thing happened to me. It’s honestly her loss tho because you will make more than her next victim.
Imagine thinking money will make you feel better.
These are the types of guys that complain about burnout, because they got into it for prestige/money.
He might as well convert the hurt into something productive, just being defeatist doesn’t accomplish anything.

Lfg champ! You’re gnna be loaded cuz of her now
I think most of us in a similar boat use the break-up/heartbreak as a catalyst to try to change ourselves for the better. Probably a lot of wanting to flex on the other person after all’s said and done so they feel like they’re really missing out
Just don’t stay jaded about her for too long cause it’s not the most sustainable form of motivation
Honestly did the same thing as u OP. Had a girl, we broke up, then used it as motivation to be better myself. proud of u bro
Just don't put too much importance or focus on that since it could lead you on the path to incel-ship.
Same here, never dated but was in a very gray area with a girl for all of junior year, but she broke my heart. I was honestly thankful for my internship since being busy distracted me. And honestly it was great motivation to work hard.
Stay on your sigma grindset for a decade and you will have all kinds of girls coming for you, probably this wench of an ex too! Good luck future chad!
