One of the worst things about a break-up is losing the person you’ve bonded so closely with. You’ve invested large portions of your life getting to know them and suddenly it’s all over.
There are a lot of arguments for staying on good terms with your exes – not least of all because there will be so much less hassle in your life if you haven’t finished on bad terms.
Here are the reasons why you shouldn’t be quick to cast them out of your life entirely.
- There is no baggage in the next relationship :
You will never find yourself going in to a rebound relationship because you’ll never have anyone to ‘get over.’ The whole reason it can take so long to get over an ex is because they have suddenly disappeared from your life.
If you keep your friendship, they are still there and the recovery process is much easier. Thus, no baggage when you come to give out your heart again.
- Future break-ups become easier :
If relationships can end well, you know in future how to approach it again if it happens. In fact, you will worry less overall during the future relationship as you will have a more ‘c’est la vie’ attitude to ‘what if it all goes wrong?’
As a resultIt feels good you will be more comfortable and confident in your relationship so everyone wins
You can feel smug that you aren’t one of those people with exes on your enemy list. Who needs that kind of bitterness in their life? You feel a bit good about yourself that you have both been mature enough to rise above the expectation that exes should hate each other and so you should.
- You’ve got each other’s backs:
You will always care about each other and, even though you may have hurt one another at the end of the relationship, that defensive mechanism will remain. It works both ways, so you know that at least one friend always has your back.
- You have memories together :
Everyone loves nostalgia and, as you grow to love your ex again as a friend, you will become comfortable enough to remember the good times of the relationship. You will probably even laugh together about how unsuited you were as a couple even though you are closer now than you ever were then.
- You don’t have to lose their family as friends :
You spent ages winning round her suspicious dad or persuading his mum that you weren’t trying to take her little child away so it would be a shame to lose all of that hard work. Just because you aren’t sleeping with their relative anymore, it doesn’t mean you can’t still hang out for the occasional Sunday lunch.
