That’s life.” There’s also much speculation that the couple’s relationship deteriorated as a result of it being plastered all over reality TV.

Cupid’s Advice:

After a breakup, you’re no doubt hurt and sometimes angry. However, it’s important to keep those feelings in check instead of unleashing them in a wave of drama. Cupid has some tips:

1. Count to 10: When you’re about to say something mean-spirited directly to your ex or behind his or her back, take a minute to think about it first. Spur of the moment comments are often times regretted.

2. Take a step back: Right after a split, it’s important to take a breather for a while. Avoid going to the places you know your ex or their friends hang out, and surround yourself with close friends and family.

3. Institute a checks and balances: Give your friends the job of watching your every move. If they see you’re about to text your ex, have them stop you. Make them the angel on your shoulder.
