Fucking fuckboys I swear. They don’t get it do they? They fuck us over and then get pissy when we refuse to be their doormats. They always try to crawl back, because they know they lost a good girl.
They hate when we have enough backbone to stand up for ourselves and walk away. They’ll do anything to try and win us back, just so they can go right back to being a dick two seconds later. The worst part? It’s actually hard to resist them when they do this.
As much as we talk shit and as much as we hate them, they always manage to weasel their douchebag selves back into our lives. And it always ends up being a regret.
So, here’s how to stay strong and resist the douchebag when he suddenly turns into Prince Charming trying to win you back.
1. Ignore him.
The quickest way to piss a guy off is to ignore them. They panic and they freak out you’re not falling into their trap. They’ll send you 7 texts, call 4 times, and send 2 Snapchats, asking if you blocked them.
2. Block him.
If they keep bothering you, trying to get you to cave, stay strong and block their ass. It’s not being petty, it’s being protective of your heart, emotions, and sanity.
3. Avoid putting where you are on social media.
Because even if they’re blocked, they can become FBI agents just like girls. They’re not above asking their friend to stalk you so they can show up wherever you are.
4. Avoid talking to his family or your mutual friends about him.
That’ll just get back to him, and he’ll think has a chance to win you over if he tells them how much he misses you, that you’ll see he’s actually “genuine,” but he’s not.
5. If he calls, don’t pick up.
If you haven’t already blocked him, he’s gonna call to try and talk it out. Don’t pick up. That just drags the bullshit out even further.
Nip it in the bud now and go on with your day for your own sanity. Hell, treat yourself to a glass of wine and bask in his desperation from afar.
6. Don’t torture yourself with memories.
Sure, you might have loved him. Maybe you still do. But looking at old pictures, and listening to your couple songs, or any love songs that remind you of him isn’t a trip down memory lane. It’s a trip right back into his arms when you’re feeling weak, and lonely. And then you give in. Don’t do it.
7. Go out with your friends.
Go have fun. If you’re laughing and smiling, you’re not focused on him. You’re not thinking of sappy shit and getting sad. It’ll help you realize you can be happy without him. Take pictures, dance, and don’t over think or feel guilty.
8. Find a hobby you’re passionate about and throw yourself into it.
Find something you’re good at and enjoy it. It will build your confidence back up and keep you busy. A busy gal doesn’t have time to text him or call him.
9. Don’t stalk him on social media.
You’re setting yourself up for failure girl. If he thinks you’re looking, he’s gonna post shit that makes him look so happy, even if he’s not. You might get jealous reach out to him and that’s exactly what he wants.
Even if you’re not jealous, you’re gonna go into sad and depressed mode. And you’re gonna get in your feelings and try to contact him.
10. Don’t bottle all your feelings and emotions up.
Vent. Scream. Yell. Cry. Then get over it and get out. Go live. Have fun. Don’t let these emotions overtake you and you get lost in them.
Let it all out. Talk about it. Write it down. Then process it, understand it, and accept it. Let it go so you can be the bad bitch you know you are.
