What makes a dumper change their mind usually has nothing to do with the dumpee. The dumpee may be a good person and easy to work with, but that doesn’t compel the dumper to come back and give the relationship another shot. Almost always, it’s some kind of personal failure that makes the dumper reflect […]
First of all, breakups aren’t competitions. It’s not about who finds a better, smarter, prettier, and rich partner first and who has more positive experiences to brag about on social media. I know it’s hard not to compare yourself to your ex-partner (especially if your ex made you feel worthless), but if you do that,
Breaking up over text is seen as an inconsiderate way of ending a relationship. Regardless of how long a relationship lasted, when a dumpee has feelings, breaking up via text shocks the dumpee and provides him or her with less information and empathy than calling and breaking up in person. It usually makes the other
If you want to know why your ex still follows you on social media, you must understand that dumpees and dumpers follow or keep following their exes for slightly different reasons. Dumpees generally follow their ex to keep an eye on their ex and to feel hopeful and less anxious, whereas dumpers do it out
Just like it’s wrong to date your ex’s friend, it’s also wrong to date your friend’s ex. Dating someone so closely related to you is immoral as it shows that you don’t respect your friend’s feelings and everything your friend and his or her ex went through. It also shows that you’ve had a crush
If your ex’s friends are contacting you, asking you questions, and being nice to you, they’re probably surprised by what has happened. They know you and have a connection with you, so they feel curious and sad and want to be as supportive as they can be. They may be your ex’s friends more than

Hanging out with an ex while you’re in a relationship is a bad idea. Friendship with an ex (especially a close one) is difficult and wrong because it makes your new partner uncomfortable and gives you or your ex hope and anxiety (depending on who left who). If you left your ex, you feel guilty,
This is a question I get all the time. Many dumpees want to know why their ex unfriended them but didn’t block them. They think and hope that unfriending without blocking means that their ex still has feelings for them and that their ex may be using them as a backup plan. What unfriending but
Living with your ex is a bad idea because you and your ex constantly remind each other that you failed as partners and that you don’t feel good around each other. Your presences alone evoke unpleasant feelings and make you go through the dumpee and the dumper stages. The dumper feels a strong need to
Exes often drink, party, and engage in self-destructive behaviors after the breakup. They feel a strong sense of relief and a need to express their relief, so they act on their post-breakup emotions and distract themselves in ways that aren’t always the healthiest for them. Some dumpers don’t do anything differently whereas others make new
When an ex swipes right on you, your ex does this for two possible reasons. Your ex either does it accidentally (very unlikely) or half-jokingly to show that he or she discovered your profile and that it’d be fun to match as ex-partners. Matching with you on Tinder, Bumble, and other dating apps shows that
Showing your ex you don’t care anymore is easier than you may think. You don’t need to text, call, or tell your ex in person that you’re over him or her and that you’re finally happy and with someone else. Telling your ex how happy you are verbally or non-verbally is completely unnecessary and counterproductive.
