I saw an article online of the 10 types of ex-partners that there is in the world. I liked it, but I decided to change it a little bit so that all the inquiries are from the posters POV and made sense to people our age. Anyways, post if you desire. This is meant for entertainment purposes. The link to the original page can be found here (http://thoughtcatalog.com/danielle-campoamor/2013/05/the-10-different-types-of-exes-there-are/). Without further ado:

1. The Angry
Either the breakup was their fault or you just can’t handle failure gracefully. Any mention of their name sends you spiraling into a vortex of rage and disgust. You send bitter text messages and leave offensive voicemails and eventually drown in a sea of vexation. The passion that once wrapped loving arms around you has turned to utter disgust.

2. The Heartbroken
Either the breakup was their fault or they just don’t know how to handle a lasting love. You're willing to do anything and say everything to fix what the two of you so fantastically destroyed.

3. The Friend
While some consider this manifestation a myth, they do exist. The breakup was either a mutual understanding of disinterested parties or the two of you have allowed time to do the dirty work. Your love has transformed into a reciprocated respect that allows for shared experiences devoid of begrudged animosity. Hold on to this one, as they’re something special.

4. The Bitch
Regardless of who ended it, you seek vengeance. You use every little weakness that they have against them to try to get them to regret breaking up with you, or to show them what they're missing. You may talk about an event or place that holds a lot of memory of you two together in order to upset them.

5. The Avoider
Their presence will devastate you and accidental eye contact will turn you to stone, so you avoid them altogether. You've removed them from every means of contact and their favorite bars are now off limits. Shared restaurants are politely divided between the two of you. A city becomes a battle field you cautiously traverse. Until your wounds have healed and your memory fades and you no longer feel their touch on your skin, you abstain from their existence. Give yourself time, as it will get better.

6. Friends with Benefits
Just cause you've broken up doesn't mean the sexual tension is gone! You know your body is safe in their arms as they’ve already obtained the roadmap to your ecstasy. While the relationship has fizzled the sexual chemistry continues to bubble and nothing satisfies you quite like their touch. Use extreme caution, as underlying emotions of love could be dangerously close to surfacing.

7. Mr./Mrs. Regretful
You guys broke up a while ago but you miss them dearly. You'll say everything you once wished to hear and do everything they once hoped you’d do in an attempt to win you back. Whether or not your motives are sincere and their attempts are genuine is up for their interpretation.


I can safely say if I'm not being "The Avoider", I'm being "The bitch" :P

The Friend with my ex fiancé, SORT of The Friend With Benefits with my most recent ex, and The Angry with a couple. The rest I'm just apathetic towards. Not exactly a friend, but not a foe either.
