Get your ex back by making them jealous – is this a good idea?

After a breakup, you may be tempted to start dating other people just to spite your ex (especially if they dumped you). While it may feel good to get your own back by parading someone else in front of them, there are a few reasons why this may not be such a good idea – especially if you plan on getting your ex back down the road.

You need to understand that you are playing with fire here. If your ex figures out that the whole exhibition is for their benefit, you won’t have a chance at getting them back. And even if you do convince them that you have someone else, the hurt may just be too much for them to handle. This is a very risky move and you have to be willing to accept the consequences of your actions.
