Recently, on her Instagram story, Tiffany Haddish shared a collective message to the exes who keep reaching out to her.
Breaking up is hard, especially when you’ve formed solid relationships with your ex-partner’s family. Some people like to make a clean break when relationships end. Anyone they know who is connected to their ex gets cut off. It’s usually not personal, those relationships simply become a casualty of circumstance. Then, there are some who so […]
If this man has kids with his ex but is on bad terms with his ex, you’ll feel the fall out. Every time you two want to travel and he wants the ex to take the kids, she’ll kick up a fuss, there will be a big fight, the trip may have to be cancelled or, if it goes, he’ll be upset the whole time. Trust me: it’s good for you if he’s on good terms with his baby mama.
When a relationship ends, do you want your ex to thank you for making him a better man, even if another woman gets to enjoy your labor?
I think at some point, most women try to save a broken man. He’s just so hard to resist, like a baby bird with a broken wing. He’s messed up in some way, and we take it upon ourselves to be his nurse and therapist (and girlfriend). Eventually, we try every way to save him and realize we can’t—people typically need to save themselves.
Do they think that he just replaced her with a replica? Or that I AM her? Maybe they just think, “Huh. Sally’s done something new with her bangs.”
It’s easy to get pulled into a vacuum when talking about exes. When you talk to your friends about past relationships, it can go on for hours. But your boyfriend is not your friend. Well, he is—and he should be—but he’s also the person with whom you have sex, so don’t talk to him about your exes the way you do with platonic friends. Keep it brief.
Oh and by the way, she’s going to enjoy the money that I helped him earn. Yup—I’m the one who counseled him through his emotional meltdowns before meetings and took care of the kids when he went on business trips. And now she will see those rewards.
So if you have a new boyfriend and don’t want to let go of your friend with your ex, you might be thinking, “Maybe I can get the two to meet! They’ll hit it off! Then I can have everything I want.”
When an ex-romantic partner has hurt you deeply, do you really require an apology in order to move on and heal from the heartbreak?
What if I told you that whoever your divine deity is – God, Buddha, the universe, whatever – he or she has some sort of Cupid-esque role in choosing whom your heart beats most heavily for? But unlike the cute little cherub with the bow and arrow, your higher power isn’t hand picking your next […]
It’s not natural, preferable or fun but at some point, for some (ungodly) reason, you may need to meet your partner’s ex. If your partner and his ex had a lot of close common friends, you may wind up at the birthday party or wedding of one of them, and come face-to-face with another woman […]
