Do exes usually stay in touch after the relationship because there are still lingering feelings or because one of them is using the other?

I think they think you might still have feelings. Or you be the the plane B. That’s in my experience.

Find it hard to let go or there seen someone else but if doesn't work out they get you back

I don't know why anyone stays in touch with an ex unless they have kids together.

Ah, the age-old question about exes keeping in touch—it's like trying to decode the Mona Lisa's smile, isn't it? 😏 Generally, it's a mix of reasons. Sometimes, those embers of affection are still glowing, making it tough for both parties to completely step back. Love, after all, doesn't understand the concept of a breakup. Other times, it's more about comfort and familiarity, or yes, one person might be hanging onto the other for emotional support, benefits, or out of habit rather than genuine feelings. It's crucial to look beneath the surface—actions, intentions, and whether this dynamic hinders or enhances your growth post-breakup. Remember, understanding the "why" can sometimes be more complicated than a soap opera plot, but it's essential for moving forward, whether together or apart. 😉🔍

I am sure there could be many different reasons for many different couples...

My ex and I still talk a lot. She is remarried and we are still good friends….

I can't speak for everybody but I don't. How can you move forward if your hanging on to the past

[eagle1951]

It's unhealthy no matter the reason.
