Cupid’s Advice:

Being normal around someone you once shared strong feelings for is seemingly impossible.  Here are a few tips on how to remain calm and collected.

1.  Shake on it: Agreeing with your ex-sweetheart to both be civil is the first step in being able to be around each other without old feelings lurking around.  If you do agree to be comfortable around each other be sure to stay true to your word.

2. Keep distance: Just because you and your ex can tolerate each other does not mean you need to know everything about one another’s lives.  Knowing what your ex-lover did after his date will only create tension between you both and leave you hurting.

3. Be respectful: Treating each other like adults is key to staying civil.  Respect your exes boundaries and feelings and they will reciprocate the same behavior.
