Social media has made breakups even harder than they already are. You’ve broken up… but you’re still “friends” online. You can easily see what they’re up to. Or you can easily take the fact that you’re still “friends” to mean that maybe things aren’t over. Neither of these things are going to help you move on.
It may seem petty, but you should unfriend your ex once things are over. It will help you get through the heartbreak. Still not convinced? Here are seven reasons why you need to unfriend your ex right now.
- They’re out of sight, out of mind.
- It will curb the urge to contact.
- You don’t want to turn into a cyberstalker.
- It will speed your recovery.
- It reduces drama online and IRL.
- You’ll “compare” less.
- It makes you more mysterious, which is always a good thing.
