Jealousy, It's A Vicious Cycle

Have you ever been out and noticed peoples ex boyfriends or girlfriends trying to make their former lover jealous? I watch this every time I go out. It’s actually comical at this point. Why is it comical? Because after a certain amount of time being broken up, it’s just pathetic. Get over it. Now here are some prime examples, ladies especially, pay attention.

Girls, dancing on poles and tables while out at the bar and then glancing at your ex boyfriend every five seconds to see if he’s watching you might be one of the most awful attempts to make a guy jealous that I have ever witnessed. This is not making your ex jealous. All it’s doing is making him realize why he isn’t with you anymore. Going from a lady-like girlfriend to a whore dancing on a pole is actually a downgrade. And by the way, he’s not watching because he’s jealous, he’s watching and laughing at the level you have stooped down to.

Next goes for both guys and girls. Please stop thinking that you’re ex is only dancing or talking to someone else to make you jealous. The world doesn’t revolve around you, you’re broken up and they’re moving on, which means you should do the same thing. There’s no reason to think that they do things like this for the sole purpose of making you jealous. However, if you do get jealous and lose your shit, it’s a win for your ex anyway. And guys, this is especially for you; stop trying to fight the other guy who’s talking to your ex. It takes two to tango and you’re broken up so it shouldn’t matter anymore. Think about it before you get into an unnecessary brawl.

Guys, you all know that it is incredibly easy to make your ex girlfriend jealous. You rarely have to even do anything other than saying hello to the wrong girl. If your ex does start flipping out on you, make sure you’re not near a bouncer because you will be the one getting kicked out, not her. You better get the other girls number early because once the hurricane known as your ex comes storming towards you, your night is over.

This is telling everyone out there to move on. Make it easy on yourself and detach this person from your life completely by not speaking to them at all. You get over it quicker and much easier. Hanging around in limbo with each other is a recipe for disaster. Move on.
