Why do people post sexy pics on social media after a break up?

[England4eva]

Like changing WhatsApp photos and updating sexy fb profile picture. I’ve never done it, partly I guess cause I didn’t want an ex to even think about me again, let alone see me. So I block and move on and change number. Have you done this, if so what was the motivation?
Thank you

You're in the market again. It a km so might make yo our ex miss you. After all, that sexiness used to be for him/her only, now it will be for someone else.

It has to do with trying to get over your ex by putting yourself out there. The best way to move on is to keep yourself busy lol

They are trying to show their exes how they fastly moving on after the break up. It is a cheap masturbation of ego.

Same reason why they do any other time. For attention.

Attention meaning a reaction?

[jahaims]
