6 Warning Signs You are Still Hung Up on Your Ex

"We" or "Us" it Still in Your Day-to-Day Vocabulary

If you were in a long term relationship it’s probably very difficult to identify yourself as a single person. However, if it’s been a while and you are still using the words “we” and “us” then it’s probably safe to say you’re not over your ex. It’s unhealthy to consider yourself a duo when you’re now flying solo. When you catch yourself identifying with “we” or “us”, stop and remind yourself why you’re strong. Make a list of the reasons why you rock as a solo act. Once you’ve adjusted to seeing yourself as an independent person who is strong you’ll find it easier to identify without your former partner.

Social Media Stalking

Observing your ex on social media is not healthy. If you are constantly searching your ex on social media then you have a serious obsession that needs to stop. Keeping tabs of your ex via social media is considered to be a form of stalking. Moreover, the life you’re viewing on social media is not a 100% factual – remember people only post what they want others to see. To stop your social media stalking addiction, put in place blockers that prohibit you from curiously viewing your ex. In addition, you can also delete mutual friends that are not really your friends but are instead your ex’s acquaintances. Or you can just quit social media altogether. Sometimes ridding yourself from all social media outlets can prove to be very refreshing and provide you with a clear outlook.
