Spying on ex's social media - since my breakup I can't stop from monitoring. Is that okay?

It is completely normal to do so, afterall, love is not that easy to be forgotten. It is good to take your time to heal and then build your life back again.

Of course it's okay! It may not help you to move or but it's a normal thing to be curious about! Try limiting yourself to one 'look' a day, and eventually you will stop caring what they are doing in their life!

It´s not. That has maybe to do with the fact that I am still missing something in my story with him out. If I still want to know how he is doing or looking, that shouldnt be a problem. Still I think it wouldnt be a problem to ask him directly how is his life going. That would give us a much more real, practical and true answer than what we can get from social media. And who knows, maybe he might be glad you looked out for him and something new might start!

That is definitely okay, as long as you both are still friends afterwards, there is nothing preventing you from seeing what they are doing.

It is normal to be curious about someone that you use to speak with everyday, however it is time to move on, if you have split up recently then take time to let your emotions out. By looking at their social media for any clue about what they are doing is just prolonging the feelings you currently have.

It's difficult to get over some people. But it's not healthy to spy on your ex. You need to make a conscious effort to try and stop. It won't help you in anyway. Instead go make some social media worthy memories for yourself. Go out. Enjoy with friends. Try new things. Have fun.

I feel like this question is very subjective, however I feel that over-time it is healthy to begin to distance yourself from an ex. Once you begin to distance yourself further and further, you will begin to discover more things about yourself, through experiences, that you may not have known,

In the beginning is okay, but if it has been going through longer, you might have some problems with missing affection and intimacy with somebody. Try to distract yourself with friends, studies, work, social life or hobbies. If the emotions are too overwhelming still, consider seeing a counselor or therapist.

Each breakup is unique and for this reason so is the 'correct' procedure on how to handle it. In my own experience the moment you decide to delete the numbers, remove the messages and block both yourself and your ex from being able to see each other on social media - you gain a huge about of control and momentum. At first, you may find yourself counting the days since you checked and wondering what you may be missing but ignorance is truly bliss! Slowly but surely by lack of exposure to your ex - you will begin to heal and move on without even realising.

Technically speaking, you can do whatever you want, but since the dynamics are very different now, it wil be considered stalking if he finds out. Also, stalking your ex prevents you from moving on from the relationship cleanly, and you might find yourself clinging on to it which is bad for your emotional well-being. I suggest you block him entirely and treat your relationship as a relic that you don't want to be reminded of. Treat you current situation as starting anew and look to the future as a blank scape.
