Why would she delete a comment relating to me almost one month after the break up?

[kj14]

Girlfriend broke up with me just over a month ago. We still have each other on social media but I just noticed that she just recently deleted an old comment made by her sister on one of her facebook pictures which related to me. It was a picture she posted way back in December of herself dressed up for a party. She was wearing the first gift I ever got her, a necklace. Her sister commented on this picture saying "nice necklace." At that time when we were still together I liked the comment, and couple of her cousins who knew I got it for her liked the comment as well. Not only was that comment one of the first comments made on the picture in a total of almost 50 comments, but like I said it was an image from all the way back in December, and she has made multiple posts after that.

 

Why would she deleted the comment almost one month after the break up? I know it could mean nothing but just seems so odd for her to dig so far down her and delete a comment related to me.

Could be that she doesn´t want someone to know that the necklace was given to her by you, or that the necklace was given to her by someone special. The comment made by her sister is one thing, but it was liked by a number of people, including you. Speaking for myself, I have removed / deleted comments on FB a long time after they were posted. Could be numerous reasons for it, but in most cases, it´s because I find the post inappropriate or that I don´t want specific people seeing what was written. I want to take the attention / meaning away from a specific event or comment.

It means that she is removing your presence off her Facebook, piece by piece. Like someone might start to remove things around their house that have a direct relationship or memory attached to their ex.

 

It's a process that usually takes place over time, and it's pretty normal. However, under normal circumstances their ex would be none the wiser, it's just harder to hide over social media.

 

Social media is record of so much personal history that anyone, including potential new partners, can look through. It stands to reason that someone might want to start editing what is there. For some people it is part of moving on and looking forward.

 

I think it is only fair to warn you that there is also a slight chance that you might end up being removed from her friends list or perhaps a restricted access list in her attempt to move on.

 

Breakups are tough, but the whole social media entanglements can take it to another level. You can see why so many people choose to go no contact straight away to avoid all this hurt and confusion.

 

I know it's hard, but try not to look.

Cleaning house. Doesn't want new guys to think she has a boyfriend still. Probably doesn't want the reminder of you either. She's moving on.

You're the one digging. Try not to take it personally. Are you in contact with her? Try blocking her social media or at least removing yourself from it for a while. It's unhealthy and will cause you more pain

Exactly.

 

OP, assume this is just part of her moving-on process. It's not unusual after a break-up for someone to remove as many reminders as they can of an ex.

 

I myself stumbled across an old photo my ex had commented on, months after we split. And yes, I deleted his comment. I had started dating my current partner at that point and felt it was best to really clean my ex out of my life in every sense.

 

It would probably be best to block her on social media, for your own sake. You're already reading too much into her activity.

Or the more pertinent question...

 

Why do you care if she deletes a comment almost one month after the break up?

 

Why are you stalking her social media?

 

Why haven't you blocked her?

This.

 

You're overthinking it.

If the relationship is over you two need to be disconnected on all social media platforms. If you had done that you wouldn't know she was housecleaning so you would not be bothered by it.
