Many times we have wondered whether we should keep in touch with our exes on social media, and opinions vary.
In my opinion, we should not keep in touch with our exes, because that way we can never move on since we remain attached to our past.
This time I did some research and asked 5 singles to tell me why they're still in a relationship with their exes.
Nadia:
"I still connect with him because I want to see what he's doing in his life. I want to see what he posts and where he goes. I know it's sick and that I'm attached, but I don't feel ready to let go yet."
Nikos:
"I keep in friendly contact with my ex, because she's a very nice person. Just because we broke up doesn't mean we can't talk."
Katerina:
"At first I had a hard time staying friends with my ex. But then I got used to it and when I got over him completely, it didn't bother me that much that I still had him in my life."
Marios:
"I'm still friends with her because I miss her even if I don't admit it."
Battle:
"I stayed friends with him because I had the possibility of a reunion in the back of my mind. Of course, that didn't do me any good, and it doesn't do me any good, but I still hope."
Staying friends with your ex can only do harm to your psychology since, as I said above, you remain stuck in the past.
Don't forget that even if you hope for a reunion, it may never happen and you may simply be creating various scenarios in your mind.
