No way! Then you'd just get surprised because you couldn't control when they'd bounce in and out of your life.

 

You're just cursing technology because you're too weak to quarantine yourself from your ex. I love the fact that you can block emails and social media. I love how I can put an ex's, or a bad date's number under "Do Not Answer" in my phone, so that when "Do Not Answer" calls/texts, I can just ignore it. And I love the fact that if you do all of that, your ex is unlikely to write you a letter or show up at your house, because they can't be f---ed.

 

I love how social media has made or so easy to connect, but just as easy to disconnect. The social media isn't the problem here, you are. Just block it/stop looking at it and be done with it! It's easy when you accept that you want a better life for yourself. That's all you have to do. You have to start treating every breakup like a death. The second you dump someone or are dumped, it's full on no-holds-barred NC. They are dead to you. It jump-starts the healing. Never delay it.

 

Nope, I hate it. Break up or not. It causes so much drama! I'm a little old fashioned. I can't block his fan page, there isn't an option to.

 

The last time we broke up he didn't use Facebook. It was me that told him to create the fan page!! The only urge I had to fight was calling/texting him.

Get off Facebook. You've been told to do that, if you can't block the page then you have to get off FB.

 

Did you look at it today? You can't blame the social media. The problem is your willpower. It causes drama if you let it. There's nothing dramatic about my Facebook...

 

No, I mean, I've heard so many stories about social media causing trouble for people.

 

Yes I looked. I'm not going to lie. And no, I have no will power. It just pisses me off knowing I have to deactivate because of him! I know he isn't forcing me to look, and I'm doing it to myself but if he wasn't on there like last time I wouldn't have this stupid problem.

Again, the social media doesn't cause drama for those people, the people cause the drama.

 

You're looking at it all backwards. Deactivating is a good thing. It is letting go. It is putting it away. It's not because of HIM. It's because YOU want better for yourself. You want a better life. Nothing to do with him.

 

Yeah I get what you mean. I was thinking that I could keep my Facebook and allow myself to look at his page only once a week, just so I don't drive myself crazy. Eventually I get fed up with it and forget to look, right?

HA!

 

No. That's like a heroin addict saying they'll only do skag once a week. You're still using, and you won't be able to stick to it.

 

Cold turkey, it's the only way...

 

Cold turkey from Facebook, ffs. Crazy! Yeah, I'm just going to have to deactivate until I don't give a **** about him.

I getting over him necessary to your life? Yes

Yeah, since you can't control your urges you need to deactivate.
