As human beings, when we build connections, those connections can become super strong, especially when it comes to romantic connections. That's why breakups are so emotionally draining. You put your heart and soul into one person, and suddenly, they're not in your lives anymore. Even though it was for the best that things came to an end between the two of you, it still doesn't feel natural. Getting back out into the dating world as if nothing happened is also a difficult feat, so much so that Twitter user gaialect posted a tweet about how she's taking a break from dating because too many people are pretending to be over their exes when they clearly need more time to heal. As one would expect, she doesn't want to get involved with a person who's still hung up about their ex. Scroll down to read the full Twitter thread, and hear what the Twitter community had to say.
Not today, Satan! We can't deal with this kind of emotional yo-yo.
It's not fair to the person involved who has no idea what's going on.
