Why Instagram Is Perfect for Making an Ex Jealous

Not only is Instagram a great way to share your own life and experiences with others, but it’s also the perfect platform for making an ex jealous.

When you post photos and captions that make it clear you’re doing just fine without them, they’ll be sure to see it.

And trust me, there’s nothing more satisfying than knowing you’re living your best life while your ex is stuck wallowing in their own misery.

Often, you will not even need to say anything or address them directly.

Simply seeing you with someone else or pictures of you being the happiest you’ve ever been will be enough.

They’ll get the message that you’re happier without them than you were with them, and they’ll even get the feeling that they were holding you back.

The Silent Treatment Is Also Better Sometimes!

If you don’t want to be outright mean or make them feel bad, you can also take the more subtle route and simply give them the silent treatment.

This is where you don’t post anything about your ex at all, or if you do, it’s completely positive and doesn’t mention any of the negative aspects of your relationship.

You can also post things that make it clear you’ve moved on, such as photos of you with new friends or doing new things.

This is a great way to show them that you’re not sitting around moping and waiting for them to come back, but that you’re actively moving on with your life.

Sometimes saying nothing says more than words ever could.

If you’re not feeling comfortable about talking to your ex and posting captions and comments to them, no matter how hard it is, just simply say nothing at all.

I can almost guarantee that they’ll end up contacting you if they miss you, or you can be sure that they’re feeling bad about the situation.
