It was an eleven month relationship. He cheated on me a few days ago and then requested me to give him a second chance since it was his first mistake. Then he again cheated on me yesterday.
On the other hand I've an exam the day after tomorrow. I've been a good student, and even the topper of my class. I don't want this incident to ruin my life but I can't get over the hurt feelings.
How to cope up and study?

Oh goodness, are you the one who was in the LDR? If so then this post makes me sad all over again, I felt absolutely terrible about that. Nothing is going to make you feel much better right, this is a devastating situation no matter what. Just try to stay focused, keep him out of sight, even if that means blocking and deleting everything with him. Help yourself where you can, just to get through your exam.
Well, yes, it's me again.
You know the reason I chose to give the second chance was because I thought every person deserves a second chance. And I wanted to keep my eyes blind till the exams are over. Right after the first incident I had a broken heart syndrome or cardiomymopathy attack. I couldn't eat anything for days, threw up constantly, had chest pain and lost weight. Then for a week I decided to shield my feelings by thinking everything is fine and tried studying. My exams started, I had two papers which could have been better without this incident. Then today morning he reveals it again. I seriously hope he just kept quiet till the exams were over. I am not just the topper of my class, but my university too. My teachers expect a lot from me and so do my parents. I'm trying to keep my senses in order and study, I tried studying right after he confessed but... it's very very hard.
I’ve been there, and I know how painful this can be. I got some really helpful advice from a close friend of mine who was a relationship therapist when I was going through a horrible breakup. I wanna share it and it’s not something that is super groundbreaking or anything but you may want to give it a shot. Take two sheets of paper, on one, write a farewell letter to that joker. Date it at the top, and basically brain dump all the things he’s done to you, all the things you loved about him, everything you hated that he did, even the lessons that you’ve learned, whatever pops into your mind, get it out of your brain. On the second paper will be a list of red flags from your relationship, everything that you ignored, dismissed, even giving him the benefit of the doubt in situations where he may not have deserved it. I don’t know if you keep a journal, but if not, this is just a way to get all of those things out of your mind and onto paper, because sometimes seeing it in front of your face is so therapeutic as opposed to keeping it bottled up in your mind. There’s plenty of time to grieve, but for the next few days, you’ve just got to figure out how to tap into your strength. Don’t let him be the reason you fail a test or don’t do as good as you could’ve — he simply does not deserve so much power, and in the future you would regret letting him be your downfall. Not when he’s running around with whoever those women are, enjoying his life.
Oh that sucks. All I can offer is sympathy because its a really difficult situation to be in. Its so difficult to concentrate on anything else right after a breakup. I think all you can do is tell yourself that you are delaying being angry until exams are over, and then you are going to let it out big time.
How important is the exam?
