Stay away from your past


We all have experienced that period after you break up with your partner and start introducing new things to your life, visit a fashion hair salon to have a new cut, take up a new hobby, etc. but it turns out that your ex still follows you. Maybe you are the following one who feels it ain’t right. It is okay if you are genuinely uninterested in keeping in touch with your ex. To get on with your current life, you should learn how to avoid your ex.

1. Phone issues
You should not call or text your ex, as you shouldn’t answer either. You can use certain services which allow you to block a contact. Consider changing the name in the address book to “Never answer” or “Don’t even try”. If phone contacts happen, be brief and polite. Don’t trigger your old communicating habit with your ex. End the conversation whenever it gets too far.

2. Boundaries
Both of you might have had mutual friends, contact, and similar schedules. You should reconsider your schedule to prevent unwanted encounters. Crossing path may lead to awkward conversations, unwelcome glances, and seeing him|her flirting with others. Keep in contact with mutual friends, but you shouldn’t attend hangouts with a group of friends, including your ex, just because you share friendship. Don’t turn anyone on your side either. Corrupting the community you are in will affect each participant negatively.

3. Rely on others
If you attend the same educational facility, work together, etc., you may get into a situation you need to cooperate with your ex. Whoever is your coordinator/tutor, don’t be afraid to say that you would like to avoid working with your ex. Awkward situations will affect your efficiency and put everybody in an embarrassing state; therefore, anyone will understand why you don’t want it to happen.


Your actions are held to move one, not to restart the relationship. To miss the edge between avoidance and focusing on your ex.
