Host Thoughts on FOMO and Fuckboys

I hate to admit it, but sometimes I’m still that person that gets pissed when an ex is in a new relationship. Obviously easier said than done when it comes to blocking them on social media…BUT remember the bad times as much as you already think about the good. Remember how happy you are without having to deal with their BS. There’s nothing wrong with taking time to move on from a past relationship, but there’s no point in letting it destroy you and give you FOMO every time you see their name pop up on Instagram or when you see them in real life. 

I have too many friends who get worked up every time they see a shitty ex with a new person. Just be glad you’re not them – switch your FOMO to JOMO – the Joy Of Missing Out! Be happy you escaped from the fuckboy clutches and are free!
