This may be very hard, but the best thing to do is "Block 'em, delete 'em, and don't repeat 'em." No matter how bad you want to interact with them, remember that talking to them will not help you or your mental state. Avoiding them will make moving on so much easier

make new friends, block them on social media (facebook, snapchat, twitter... the lot!) Just pretend they don't exist.

You can simply not talk to each other. The fact that you broke up already spoke for itself and now you're standing for yourself. If your ex is trying to engage you into a conversation and you're not in the mood at all then you should probably ask your ex to end it in a polite way. In the end you want to have your dignity.

Try talking to other friends, or go out for a run instead! Those really worked for me in my moments of weakness. I have times when I just really want to contact my ex because he was the one who supported me through everything, but I know I shouldn't so I really started to lean on all of my other friends who were super supportive. Never underestimate how much your friends love you, and their collective support may outweigh the longing for your ex! I've also tried really cheerful songs of empowerment, and those really helped too and definitely increased my productivity as well :)

You can stop talking to your ex after a breakup by deleting him from anything that he could contact you from on.

You keep busy. You find other people to talk to instead. You can even make a list of 10 people that you are going to talk to before you talk to your ex. Then let your friends know what you're doing.

speaking from experience, ask a friend you trust to block him on social media from your id. Tell your friends that they not bring up his/her topic in front you so that you aren't attempted to talk to them!

From my experience- delete everything. Is it the most mature? No, but it helped me to feel disconnected and not constantly wondering what he's doing. In time, I was able to reconnect with him, when it wasn't so messy and it didn't hurt anymore. Disconnecting is often the easiest when we cut all ties.
