She was about to embark on a tour promoting her new book about relationships. "It wasn't ideal timing," the 31-year-old actress admits, laughing. "Here's my relationship book and I'm single." Still, she has gone ahead with the publicity tour for "The Day I Shot Cupid: My Name is Jennifer Love Hewitt and I'm a Love-Aholic." And she's embracing one of its lessons: Allow yourself 72 hours to wallow after a breakup. Then move forward.
"Put your big girl pants on and move on," Hewitt tells The Associated Press. "Seventy-two hours is an appropriate time. After that you start to smell and your friends don't want to talk to you. ... It doesn't mean it fixes your feelings or takes away the sadness. You should just start to go, 'I'm OK.'" The book also includes these tips: Accept that men will always check out other women. Guys hate to spoon. And one shouldn't be overzealous with a new significant other. There's even a section written by Kennedy himself, who assures women that most guys like their girls curvy, not stick-thin.
