New readers, welcome to Dear Wendy, a relationship advice blog. If you don’t find the info you need in this column, please visit the Dear Wendy archives or the forums (you can even start your own thread), or submit a question for advice. “Why does it always seem like guys can move on from a relationship so quickly? My boyfriend and I broke up three weeks ago and he’s already has a profile up on a dating site. Meanwhile, I can barely get out of bed in the morning.” — Still Heartbroken
