Question - (25 January 2011) 8 Answers - (Newest, 27 January 2011)
A female United States age 26-29, *orrely writes:

i want to make my ex as jealous as possible. he really broke my heart. we ended it "mutually" but it was more him wanting to end it than me. i want to make him regret breaking up with me. we dated for a year, and we're both 15. he was the first guy i really cared about like that, and it really hurt when we broke up.

we're staying friends. i can't really imagine my life without him in it. it's hard. and it still hurts. it's been two weeks. and he's already started flirting with people, so i want to make him jealous of me.

bad idea. its not fair on the guys that you will use just to make him jealous and if it looks obvious to people that you are just putting on a show to get him jealous you will look childish and get a reputation as being a b!tch and other guys won't trust you.

the best thing you can do is just be indifferent to your ex. that will bother him more and it is more dignified for you. just keep yourself busy and get on with your life and the spite you feel about you ex right now will melt away in time

I think trying to make your ex jealous is a waste of time. While the idea feels good, I know when an ex of mine tried to make me jealous I just found it amusing. He tried everything from flirting with my friends to going on about the new girlfriend of his that was better than me. I honestly didn't care and after the initial amusement faded it started getting really annoying and a little pathetic.

Breaking up sucks no matter what age, but the best you can do is just move on. Staying friends is fine, but let yourself heal before spending loads of time with him. Trust me, on that one. Get some distance from him and the relationship and everything will work out in the end :) continue your friendship after the emotions have cooled and you're thinking with a level head. First breakups are never fun but it's a part of life.

It's funny cus I guessed your age before I looked at what it was....

What a middle school thing to do! Forget making your ex jealous, if that's the low your willing to stoop to than I don't wonder why he broke up with you.

If he is sane than he will never be in any kind of relationship with you lasting more than a while. If he is petty and plays social mind-games like you, it will just end in a lot of middle-school drama and the rest of the guys in your school will think less of you. Guys don't like girls who run around and make drama

tennisstar88 agony auntI found the best way to make your ex jealous(this is if you know they still care for you, if he doesn't then it won't work) is to flirt with his enemy or even his best friend right in front of him. In my experience, going for his enemy is a thorn in his side.

But if you're trying to be friends, it's not a good idea to make him jealous. Then you'll lose his friendship too. Give yourself time to get over this break-up. Think about it.

It seems like your ex doesn't want a relationship with you and has moved on, pretty quickly. So I doubt you really could make him jealous anyway.

Making somebody jealous is not a healthy way to get them back so I suggest you try moving on as well.

Hi there, the best thing to do in your situation is just be normal like it doesn't bother you one bit. honestly there is no point in making somebody jealous, i know it hurts my god do i what but the only way to even make him care one bit is to make him think you don't give a darn, act like he's just another person....
