Top 3 Ways to Stop Stalking Your Ex
Blog Editor: PKB BooksRelationships come and relationships go, but some are not so easy to let go. Even if your heart isn’t broken, the urge to KNOW can take over.
“I love him, I love her, I love him… I love herrrr”, “Where is he going?!”, “What is she doing?!” These questions and others will have you on the verge of stalking your ex. So, if you’re struggling to let go of your ex, know you are not alone but also know, it’s time to stop…
Let’s chat!
1. Break the Links
I know you want to keep that contact…but NO! You have to delete the individual from all sources; otherwise, you will continuously be tempted to take a peek, text, call… or the worst choice of them all—diving into the rabbit hole of memory lane by looking at photos, videos & listening to voice notes. If you don’t have the strength to delete this information, hand that phone over to a friend & tell him/her to swipe away!
2. Too Soon for #1?! Okay, try this…
Alright, maybe you don’t want to totally delete the person (yet) saooooo, change their name to something that will remind you of the red flags & most importantly, remind you why this person is an ex. As for social media, use whatever settings there are to hide him/her–unfollow, block, unfriend, hide notifications, snooze for 30 days…you get the picture.
3. Do something!
That’s it! DO SOMETHING! Whatever you do, just don’t wallow! Get out there and live, because your life is not over. Sure, he/she may cross your mind, but only for a moment and then back to doing your thing. Especially because you may be the only one sitting in sorrow. If the other person was the break-upper, they may be having a ball right now! So it’s definitely a good time to try something new…something new, not someone new… well…maybe someone new. Whatever floats your boat! 😂
All in All…
Please know, not all breakups are bad breakups, but all breakups do leave something behind. Whatever it leaves behind for you, use it to better the next. We have opportunities to experience others, that experience may be short or long-lived. No matter which, know there is more than one solution & don’t feel pressured to take it on alone. If needed, seek advice from family, friends or a therapist.
Now go have a block party & delete, delete, deleeeete!!!
