I’m not wanting an ex back, was just talking to my friend about this last night and genuinely curious if this something that happens often?
I’ve had it happen to me a couple of times (not a stealth brag I was better off without them 
) and my friend had a few times too. I generally think it’s because it’s easy and better than being alone or putting in the time to find someone else rather than people realising they made a mistake. Would others agree or do you think sometimes people don’t realise what they had?
