These celebrity exes are playing nice! What are some reasons to remain civil after a tough break-up?

Cupid’s Advice:

Even though break-ups are hard, it’s important to remain civil with your ex because there is no point in being bitter that things didn’t work out. If this famous couple can do it, so can we!

1. After time has passed, you can be friends: Just because your relationship didn’t work out, doesn’t mean that you can’t be friends once both of you have moved on. Behind every solid couple is a solid friendship, so don’t burn any bridges just yet. Maybe you two can be friends one day.

3. It will let you move on: You can’t truly move on in your life if you’re held up in the past. Let the past live in the past and move forward instead of looking back. Being bitter will only affect your life. Your ex doesn’t care if you’re mad at them, so let go of the animosity.
