HOW TO RESPOND TO EX- TEXTS

The ‘ex-text’ is often unwanted, but usually unavoidable. Here’s how to deal when he WhatsApps you out of the blue.

HE SAYS

‘Hey, can I come pick up my stuff later?’

Er, how about no. You don’t need your ex in your space regardless of who called it quits, and it’s not okay for him to expect you to be available on the day he messages you. Think about how much time you need and where would be a good place to meet before you reply suggesting a place and day for a swap. If you’re not ready, say so.

HE SAYS

‘You’ll never find anyone like me’

This is emotional blackmail, and it’s not cool to take stabs at your future love life. he may be hurting, but you need to protect yourself. remember: he has no claims on you, and no right to put his emotions on a pedestal. do not reply.
