Just for Laughs: 8 Funny things women do after breakup

Break-ups are always difficult to deal with, especially when it’s with someone you really loved. Man or woman, we all have our own ways of dealing with break-ups, but because men are a bit emotionally ‘stronger’, we tend keep ourselves in check after a break-up. But women; well, being who they are, appear to be the worst hit after a break-up. There’s usually an obvious change in their attitude, and although some try to hide it, you can tell they’re just not themselves. They resort to different things as a way of dealing with a bad break-up, and some of these things are very hilarious. I have put 8 of these things together to help you begin your week on a lighter note. Enjoy and share with your friends!

 1. THEY DELETE HIS NUMBER

Well, this is always the first move, isn’t it? Lol. As soon as a guy breaks a lady’s heart, the next thing she does is delete his number. But the funny thing about this is It still doesn’t change anything because women usually have the phone number of their ex stored up in their brains. Ask them in five years, they’ll remember!

2. THEY BECOME RELATIONSHIP EXPERTS

I know most people can relate to this. We all know that one female who has had a bad break up and next thing, she thinks she has a BSc in dating. Relationships become her favourite topic, and suddenly, she wants to give relationship advice at the slightest chance, even if hers did not work. She knows how not to date a guy.


3. THEY BECOME ‘BORN AGAIN’…AGAIN!

For most women, the only place they find solace in after a bad break-up is in religion. The ones who weren’t religious suddenly develop affection for God (or probably yoga), in hope that he blesses them with someone better. But as soon as they find love again, it’s back to square one. Thank God he is merciful, eh?

4. THEY SUDDENLY BECOME ACTIVISTS

Ladies always have a sense of empowerment after a bad break-up. You see things like, #TeamSingleAndLovingIt, #TeamSingleForever etc; even though deep inside, they wish they were still together with their ex. They suddenly have their little NGOs and become ‘allergic’ to men. If you’re a guy, and you fall for them during this period, I pity you.

5. THEY PLAY MORE SLOW SONGS

They dig out Adele’s album or watch ‘A walk to remember’ and lay on their beds all day, crying their eyeballs out after every scene. We all know how depressing Adele’s ‘Someone like you’ is. Even when you are in the best relationship, that song just has a way of making you feel sad. Lol.

6. THEY TURN STALKERS

This is common among most ladies. After a bad break up, they start to stalk their ex on all known social media; Instagram, Twitter, Facebook…just name it. Some even go to the extent of dialling his number a couple of times with a strange/hidden number…then when he says hello, they hang up or just remain silent. I have caught a few women doing this. I know some of you are guilty. Lol. Women are just the best CIA agents!

7. THEY HANG OUT MORE

If you haven’t noticed this—when a girl is single, she rarely stays home. Even if she wants to, her friends wouldn’t let her. They always wanna go out and have that fun they would never have had with the ex. And it’s always a plus when they know their ex would be at the same event they’re going to. If he’s gonna be there, they’ll dress to kill, just to make sure he realises what he is missing. Besides, ‘Mr.Right’ can be found anywhere.

8. ON TO THE NEXT ONE

Sometimes, they turn a ‘good girl gone bad’ if they can’t handle themselves. Men she kept on hold while she was dating become her ‘besties’ and we all know the things that go along with that. Lol.



Ladies, I’m sure you have done at least one of those things listed above. Are you bold enough to share your experiences with us? Lol.
