Miley Cyrus Shares Her Logic on Getting Over a Breakup
Who knows better than Miley Cyrus the remedies for a broken heart.
With the “Midnight Sky” star’s fresh breakup with boyfriend Cody Simpson and longtime relationship with Liam Hemsworth, which lasted a decade before concluding in divorce, Miley Cyrus is no stranger to heartache. Lucky for us, the singer has a bit of advice on how to officially squash an “Achy Breaky Heart.”
Miley had a transparent conversation about her sexuality and relationships with Alexandra Cooper on her wildly buzzing podcast Call Her Daddy, as reported by E! News. Miley referred to her departure from Liam as grieving the deceased. “It’s like a death when you lose a love that deep, like it feels like a death,” she said. “Sometimes that even feels easier because it’s more…the person’s still walking on the earth and choosing every day, because it’s a choice. Death isn’t a choice and this is a choice.”

Forever and ever no more. 🖤 The #MidnightSky is the road I’m taking…. head high up in the clouds.
If Miley can survive that, then you can overcome your broken heart too. She shares her logical breakup recovery activity—it scores 10 points for legitimacy.
“Make a list of what you were gaining and what you were losing,” Miley instructs. “What they were contributing to your life and what they were subtracting. Value each of these things by 1 through 10, and then you add them all up. If the person was adding more to your life, then you know what is expected for your next relationship. And what they were subtracting — you know what you will not accept ever again.”
If you haven’t been singing the lyrics “I was born to run, I don’t belong to anyone,” you clearly have not listened to Miley’s new hit single, “Midnight Sky.”

As Miley explained to SiriusXM Hits 1, the song is a medium for her to reclaim her voice, and sling her public persona into the dumpster. “I had to kind of be human and experience and grow, but then I wanted to tell it directly from my mouth and not from the idea of the public perception,” Miley shared with SiriusXM Hits 1. “My story throughout my career has been told through the public perception a lot. I think I just want to regain that power.” We are all ears, Miley.
