If your ex said you are done for good, your ex isn’t the first dumper to have said that. Many dumpers before him/her have said the same thing. Most of them meant it because they were angry or upset, but not all of them kept true to their word. Some had a change of heart […]
Breakups are hard enough on their own. They make you feel powerless and responsible for the end of the relationship. But when your ex goes a step further and blocks you, you can’t help but feel rejected all over again and think that your very presence irritates your ex. Deep inside, you know that your

Did your ex downgrade after leaving you? Don’t worry; it happens to many dumpees. Dumpers often leave a good, compatible partner for someone they know very little about. Not only do they know very little about their dating interest, but that person is often a complete downgrade in terms of looks, personality, or stability. He
I know how important closure is after a breakup. It helps you make sense of what happened, accept the reality of the situation, and begin to heal emotionally.

Monkey-branching relationships often start with a thrill. Dumpers meet a new and exciting person, escape old problems and reality, and feel nothing but joy and excitement. On the surface, it can look like a major upgrade in their life. But when you look a little closer, the cracks and imperfections start to show. You begin
If you’ve been dumped and can’t stop wondering if exes always come back, you need to know the truth: they don’t always come back.

People are different in
Many times, when people (dumpers) leave relationships, they expect to control the narrative. They expect to elicit a strong emotional reaction from the dumpee and see him or her fight for the relationship. Silence flips that expectation, as it suddenly removes all validation and reassurance. Instead of seeing their ex chase them, dumpers are left
Prior to writing this article, I browsed for a while and learned what breakup gurus and people, in general, think about writing a letter to an ex. To my surprise, many articles and videos endorsed the writing of various types of letters to their ex and guaranteed some sort of closure or long-term success with
Avoidants often struggle with intimacy and attachment. They perceive relationships as emotionally draining, so they abandon them when they reach their emotional limits and think of their partners as the biggest stressors in their lives. Instead of working on problems with their partners or alone, they chose to avoid dealing with emotionally difficult situations by
First of all, you’re greatly mistaken if you think you should be the one to send the first text after the no contact rule. I know some people say otherwise, but those are usually the ones more interested in your money than your emotional well-being and success with your ex. They want you to feel
