Have you ever been living it up in a club or a party and you’re looking for someone to take home? Most people there are probably waaay too drunk, or you’re not drunk enough to think they’re attractive. Then you spot your ex. Eh, it’s been a while, they’re still looking good, they’re into it. Why not right?
Stop right there my friend. You are making a mistake. Well, most likely anyway.
Hooking up with an ex when you’re out might be an easy option. You both know what each other likes and you don’t have to try very hard to get them, but this could be leading to absolute heartbreak (which is worse than just heartbreak).
Even if you think all of those feelings are gone, hooking up with your ex, especially when you’re drunk and your willpower is low is one of the worst things you could do, either to yourself or to them.
If you have feelings for them, then you’re hurting yourself and your self esteem and if you know they still have feelings for you, then you’re hurting them. You’re getting someone hooked and thinking that this could morph into something that you used to have.
Detach! ASAP! Red alert! Either you’re going to get hurt, or you’re going to hurt someone and turn them into a crazy stalker. Both of those outcomes are horrific.
So do everyone a favour, yes everyone. Everyone who will hear about it - friends, family, Facebook - will mentally thank you and God that they do not have to hear any sobbing or bitching or see any puffy eyes or weight gain. Your ex is just that for a reason.
