ADVICE

Clean Up Photos Selectively

  • Do edit or delete specific carousel images rather than removing entire travel or group posts with your ex.
  • Preserve photos you love but remove kissing or explicitly romantic shots and revise captions that declare undated devotion.
ADVICE

Think Of Three Audiences

  • Do consider three audiences when handling breakup posts: your ex, potential dates, and friends/family.
  • Archive or edit content when it no longer represents your present life or could mislead future partners.
INSIGHT

Social Media Is Your Billboard

  • Insight: Your social feed is a living billboard for your current life stage and identity.
  • Change the billboard when your life meaningfully moves on, not just for fear of judgement.
