What You’re Like As An Ex, Based On Your Birth Month

January

You’re the type of ex who handles the breakup like an adult. You’re mature, even when you’re angry or annoyed with them. You never let your temper get the best of you. You want to handle the breakup as respectfully as possible so you can both move forward and grow.

February

You’re the type of ex who moves onto someone new to forget about the past. You jump from one relationship to the next – or at least find someone new to flirt with to keep your heart occupied. The best way for you to forget about someone is to find someone new to love.

March

You’re the type of ex who cries behind closed doors. You are highly affected by the breakup, but you would never let your ex see that. You would never let them know that they’re on your mind this much. In public, you pretend to be perfectly fine.

April

You’re the type of ex who goes no-contact. Once you’re broken up, you’ll delete them from your social media, your phone, your mind. You understand that out of sight and out of mind is the best way to heal from heartbreak, so you won’t let yourself talk to them.

May

You’re the type of ex who has trouble moving on. You always end up watching your exes enter new relationships while you’re still stuck pining over them. You don’t understand how other people heal so quickly because you need a good chunk of time until you’re ready to think about love again.

June

You’re the type of ex who won’t stop talking about the relationship. Your friends will end up hearing every detail about the relationship and the breakup because you won’t shut up about it. Your ex’s name will keep coming out of your mouth for months because you won’t be able to stop thinking about them.

July

You’re the type of ex who tries to stay friends. You don’t want to lose someone who once played such an important role in your life. You don’t want to go from thinking of them as your everything to nothing at all. You want to stay in touch, stay close, even if it isn’t the best idea, logically.

August

You’re the type of ex who tries to win the breakup. You want your ex to feel like they’re missing out without you. You want them to realize what a huge mistake they’ve made by messing up their chance with you, so you post the most attractive photos online and brag as much as you can.

September

You’re the type of ex who tries hard to get closure. You want to have long, in-depth conversations with your ex to find out why the breakup happened. You want to hear how they’re feeling and express your feelings to them.

October

You’re the type of ex who sends drunk texts. You usually manage to stop yourself from contacting them when you’re sober, but after a few drinks, you can’t help yourself. You either text them to tell them how much you miss them and want them back — or how annoyed you are with them and can’t believe what they’ve done.

November

You’re the type of ex who still wants to hook up from time to time. After all, you’re still attracted to each other. And you deserve to have a little fun. You try to tell yourself that it’s harmless, but sometimes you end up getting your feelings hurt because you still secretly want them to be more than a friend.

December

You’re the type of ex who genuinely wants the best for their old partners. You cheer them on and are genuinely happy when they find love again. You dated them because you liked them, and those feelings don’t magically go away now that you’re broken up. You still care deeply about them.
