Why did my ex move on so fast, we have only been broken up for 2 weeks?

Do everything to avoid solitude as much as possible.

Leave things unclear, open-ended and complicated with their ex where it constantly interferes with new relationships.

On some level expect their new man/woman to make up for the wrongdoings of their ex.

Get into relationships before they’re able to emotionally commit to someone other than their ex.

They think that just because they did the emotional checking out while still being with you, they don’t need to work on healing and processing once they left for good.

And the way this manifests is that they:

Were the 1980s as uptight and prudish as movies and TV shows make them out to be? When I think of 80s culture, I think about a very "icky" judgmental yuppie status quo time period.

It‘s also a very common reason for breakups — people just don’t take the time and space anymore to rediscover life without their ex, to heal in solitude for a couple of months, to mentally and emotionally adapt and adjust to the single-lifestyle (life when in a relationship is very different from life when single) but jump straight into a rebound and thus, they carry all their past emotional baggage from previous relationships into their new ones.

More often than not this happens because people tend to overestimate how fast they can move on and process a breakup and underestimate the work, power and awareness this really takes.

Constantly compare their current men/women to their exes.

Why does everyone hate Anthony Joshua so much? I get that he isn’t the best heavyweight boxer ever but people claim he’s a no skill fighter but he has an Olympic gold medal, a world championship, and beat Klitschko, a dominant force in boxing
