Feeling lost in the whirlwind of modern breakups? We've been there, and in this poignant episode of The Breakup Diet, we share our own struggles with sudden loneliness and fear long after a breakup. Tune in as we dissect how social media keeps past relationships alive and kicking, making it nearly impossible to achieve true no-contact. We'll share effective strategies for managing these feelings, from unfollowing and muting exes to the crucial importance of self-reflection and healing over time.

Ever felt the sting of a last-minute cancellation or the hollow silence of being ghosted? Our personal stories bring these frustrations to life as we explore the unique challenges of modern dating. Discover coping mechanisms to deal with ghosting, especially when it happens in established relationships. We'll also delve into the added layers of scrutiny that social media brings to relationship dynamics, and the significance of public versus private moments in shaping our interactions.

Breakups and social media can wreak havoc on your mental health, but we've got your back. Learn practical tips to navigate the emotional rollercoaster of post-breakup social media stalking and the pitfalls of validation-seeking online. We'll discuss the benefits of limiting your time online and focusing on real-life connections.
