Would you check an ex’s social media for any reason while trying to get over them?

Yes

No

I personally would delete them. Checking in on their social media does nothing for a person post-breakup but make it harder to move on and heal. Watching that ex live their life, maybe get a partner, and when you’re not completely over them then those things are extremely hurtful. Being that curious is destructive. Out of sight out of mind is the most healthy, in my opinion.

This man did delete me he’s still looking lol

[HollyK21]

He’s not doing himself any favors then lol, it just makes things harder. In the past when I had the habit of checking in on my ex I’ve only hurt myself watching him have fun, enjoy life and move on while I was having such a hard time. Not to say that he wasn’t hurting behind the scenes but people won’t display that in pics and vids.

Yeah my ex and i broke up almost a year ago.
I still check her instagram daily even though we don’t follow each other. I still miss and love her very much and so I’m constantly checking to see what’s new in her life. NGL the thought of her having someone new eats me up inside and so I also look out to see if she’s in a new relationship. Sometimes I stalk her instagram or social media just to see pictures of her when I miss her.

yes all the time lol it's just part of the healing process until you could care less they ever existed

[JosyJosy]

No how can you get over someone if you're going to look for them, that doesn't make any sense.

[itsalyssaagain]

Never ever ever. Bad idea.

[Wise4myage]

No that’s pointless.
