We’ve all done this – stalked our ex on social media after we’ve broken up. Let’s face it, it has only done us more harm. It would be a lot easier if you didn’t have access to his Facebook profile and Instagram account, which just show you that he has moved on. Here are 11 legit reasons to quit stalking your ex on social media, because life is more beautiful than that!
1. It’ll make you miserable and seriously you don’t need it. After all, how can anyone be happy after they hear or see something about their ex. And this is virtual misery, which can be totally avoided.
2. Nobody ever put the bad things online. It’s a fact that the online world is a façade where everyone puts up their happiest moments that’ll make the other person jealous. But trust me, the truth is way different.
3. It’s an act of self-harm. Virtual stalking is only going to cause you more pain than pleasure. In fact it’s like punishing yourself. Why would you do it?
4. You must move on but virtual stalking won’t let you. No matter how long ago you broke up you’ve got to march ahead.
5. You will lose friends. Knowing everything that your ex is doing can be quite terrible because that means your life still revolves around him. You will also end up talking more about him which your friends won’t always appreciate.
6. It’ll clutter your mind. Stalking your ex will take up a lot of your precious time and clutter your mind which means you end up wasting precious energy on things that don’t matter.
7. Your happiness will be distorted. All because you are more worried about what your ex is doing or will do. Is it really worth it?
8. You’ll end up obsessing over people you don’t know at all. Your ex’s new girlfriend or new best friend are going to bring no change to your life, so how does it matter?
9. And make plans as per his plans. Remember that you have a life of your own.
10. You will end up getting caught someday. What if you get drunk and like one of his pictures or simply put all your feelings in a comment.
11. Your dignity is important. You wouldn’t want your ex to know that you are miserable and stalk him. Your dignity is important so go ahead and delete!
