Unfortunately, most exes are unable to remain friends.
There is too much history.
Too much unresolved heartache.

You should put your mental health in front of your friendship.Unfortunately, most exes are unable to remain friends.
There is too much history.
Too much unresolved heartache.
You dont owe your ex anything.Youre broken up now.
You dont owe your ex anything.
Not your time and not your attention.
You dont have to text them back.
You dont have to agree to hang out with them.
You arent a bitch for walking away from them.Saying goodbye to an ex doesnt make you a bad person.
It doesnt make you selfish.
It doesnt make you cruel.
Its hard to maintain a friendship with someone when you used to date.
Its hard to switch from loving this person to being platonic with this person.
If you cannot stand the change in your dynamic, its okay for you to walk away.
Let them know your heart needs some time to heal.
If they dont understand where youre coming from, then theyre the selfish one.
Maybe you’re free to reunite in the future, but for now, you need your space.
Take things one day at a time.
Maybe you will end up friends after all.
You dont deserve to be weighed down with jealousy as you watch them develop a relationship with someone new.
You deserve to move on from this person.
And you deserve to discover happiness without them.
Its much easier to get over someone when you arent constantly reminded of them.
Do whatever helps you heal.
If your ex really values you as a friend, then theyll understand.
Theyll want you to be okay without them.
