Taylor Swift has a song for every occasion. This one is about a couple who loves each other, but can no longer be together. It doesn't matter how much you love him, because if he's treating you poorly, you should leave him. It's better to be alone than to be in an unhealthy relationship.

If you feel like it'll be impossible to live life without your boyfriend, this is the perfect song for you to cry to. Of course, as soon as it ends, you have to remember that it's possible to get by without your ex. You can be just as happy without him as you were with him.

7. T-Shirt by Shonetelle

This song is about a woman who's sitting around in her ex's T-shirt. She misses him dearly, and isn't really sure how she's going to put on a fake smile to have fun with her friends. Even though she knows it's healthier for her to dress up and be social, she'd rather curl up in bed with her man's t-shirt on.

These songs aren't going to make you feel any better. If anything, they're going to make you feel worse. Of course, it's easier to move on from your pain after fully experiencing it. What's your favorite song to listen to after a rough breakup?
