E-venge: What Not To Do Following Your Breakup

Submitted by on April 19, 2009 - 7:00 am

After a breakup, especially a bitter breakup, it may be tempting to defame your ex online by blogging about the breakup, filming a post-breakup rant and putting it on YouTube, or spreading vicious rumors about your ex to everyone you know. DON’T DO IT. While the initial euphoria of redemption may feel fabulous, the resulting repercussions can be detrimental to your recovery. Your ex may retaliate, your friends may turn on you, and/or you may even sabotage a future relationship because the person you’re interested in discovers your online rant and determines that you’re cuckoo for cocoa puffs. Trust me, it’s just not worth it!

Instead, focus on your healing. Practice self nurturing behavior. And let go of your need to get closure, get revenge, or worst of all, get back together.
