If you have an important life question that needs an answer, it may not hurt to reach out to Rihanna. And yes, we're talking about multi-platinum recording artist and eight-time Grammy Award winner Rihanna. Last year, the 29-year-old singer went out of her way to help one of her fans come out of the closet through a series of DMs on Twitter. The person, who shall remain anonymous, sent a message to her because he didn't have anyone else in his life to talk to about it. 

Earlier this week, another fan, who goes by @WaladShami on Twitter, sent a DM to Rihanna with the hopes of receiving some advice on how to get over your first heartbreak. He toldBuzzfeed that his first relationship ended in January. Since he saw that the singer has delivered some words of wisdom in the past, it didn't hurt to give it a try.  

Not only did Rihanna respond, she dropped another gem. "Just believe that the heartbreak was a gift in itself," she wrote. "Cry if you have to, but it won’t be forever! You will find love again, and it will be even more beautiful! In the meantime enjoy all that YOU are!!!!" 

Aside from making this fan's week, and probably year, by simply responding to his shot-in-the-dark DM, Rihanna also provided a heartfelt and meaningful response that will hopefully help him as he works towards getting over his first heartbreak.
