It’s been a few weeks or months since you broke up, and you think you’re over your ex? We’ll tell you the signs that you’re still attached to your ex-boyfriend.
Drunk WhatsApp messages, constant comparisons with your ex, or regular stalking of his Facebook profile: We’ll tell you which signs prove that you’re still not over your ex—even if you’re firmly convinced of it.
You still stalk him on all social media platforms.
Hardly a day goes by when you are not on his Facebook profile. You just have to type his first letter into the Facebook search field and Facebook knows who you are looking for based on your activity log. You look at which events he attends, which new contacts he has, or which pictures he uploads. And why does he keep liking pictures of random women? clear sign that you are not over your ex yet.
You still have pictures of you together in your apartment
Whether on the nightstand next to the bed or on the wall: If you haven’t managed to put away the pictures you shared, then you’re still thinking about your ex far too often. The same goes for gifts or other remnants from the relationship.
You compare other men with your ex.
As a single person, you get to know a lot of other men, but it doesn’t work out with any of them because your ex was much smarter, more handsome, and funnier than the others anyway.
… you have blocked him on Facebook, WhatsApp, etc.
The other extreme of stalking is the complete avoidance strategy: you have blocked your ex on all channels because any information you get about him throws you off balance. This also indicates that you are not over him at all.
… you write him drunken messages at night
A few glasses too many and you’re already pulling out your phone to send him a message? You haven’t forgotten him yet!
You console yourself with another man.
Yes, distraction is the best remedy for heartbreak. But that doesn’t mean you have to jump into a new relationship straight away to forget the past. If you don’t process your grief properly and just cover it up with new, positive feelings, you’ll never be able to move on from your ex.
…You constantly talk about him
Girls’ night and the only thing you keep talking about is the last vacation you had with your ex or the apartment you shared that was so cozy? If you constantly have him on your mind, talk about him, and secretly wish you could go back to that time, you are not over your ex yet.
You feel bad when he has contact with other women.
Nowadays, we can find out almost everything about each other via social media platforms. And so we inevitably see when our ex makes new acquaintances. Of course, the odd woman shows up. If that doesn’t leave you cold and you cry yourself to sleep afterward, you’re still attached to him.
You still sleep with him.
You broke up a while ago, but you’re still sleeping together? Well, it couldn’t be clearer that you’re not over your ex yet.
You read his Horoscope.
It sounds stupid, but it’s true: Most women don’t just read their horoscope in magazines or on the Internet, but also that of their partner. So if you’re still looking up your ex’s horoscope, you’re still thinking about him too often to be really over him.
