Social media deactivated after breakup?

[Anonymous]

So my long distance boyfriend asked for time alone, but it was essentially a breakup. I had my social media like normal but 3 days later I was stalking and seeing his activity. I called him in the first week we were broken up, clearly I didn't have much self control. I called him a second time. On Saturday I decided to deactivate because he asked for space and I was already failing. He answered and talked to me on the two calls and I feel like that made me more confused and if I kept social media and kept calling him, I wouldn't be like "valuing" his needs.

Advice? Should I activate and like really have self control? (broke up 2 weeks ago)

or

should I wait until I feel more stable?

Breaking up is always such a hard experience and leaves you blunt and disoriented. You have a hard time accepting the fact that nothing will be the same again. You want to hold on to what you had rather than to let go.

In this case, it would be best to deactivate the social media or at least to take a break from it and not be on it 24/7 and try to see how your ex is doing or trying to follow his social online activity.

If you are certain that this is a permanent break up and not just some temporary state, then remove him from your social media and don't follow his activity. You would do yourself a big disfavor to keep on reading his stuff.

Why deactivate anything because of a man?
