3. My ex. The second we broke up, I deleted all of our texts and our emails and our messages. I don’t even have my ex’s number in my phone anymore. We split on bad terms, and unlike with you, we weren’t about to set aside our differences and form a friendship stronger than our doomed relationship. That’s not how people in the real world work. I don’t get along with my ex. That’s why they’re my ex. But that’s not just why we’re exes, is it?
