Hey, we all grieve in our own way.   Don`t judge. 

The 34 year old Canadian singer got over her split with Ryan Reynolds (also Canadian) by having:

“lots of dates and lots of sex“

Apparently she was devastated by the broken engagement and needed several months to get over it.  I guess because of the songs she writes on her albums, I just picture her going to town on her next album when a break up occurs.  It`s opportunity knocking, really.

Although she gave herself the rule of not getting seriously involved with men for 1 year after the split, that didn`t stop her from sowing her wild oats:

“No strings relationships have helped cure me of love addiction.  “All my life I’ve been in long-term monogamous relationships. I had to break that pattern by not allowing myself to have a relationship for a year, stopping myself from committing to men. I haven’t been celibate. I’ve had lots of dates and lots of sex, but I haven’t been pushing to turn a date into a relationship. This has been a huge thing for me.”
