But, I’ve found that we often come to the realization that we’ve gotten over our exes when we’re no longer triggered by certain things although it’s not always so easy to understand exactly how it happened.
I asked 40 single men and women when they knew they were over their ex and here’s what they had to say.

When men decide to stay single, they’re referred to as bachelors. When women decide to stay single, they’re called…far worse than bachelorettes. While researching for this post, I came across the word “spinster” as the feminine equivalent of the word bachelor. In fact, in England and Wales these words were used in official documents for “unmarried men and women” until 2005 when the countries stopped the used of these words.

And how to avoid it like the plague that it is
Chances are, you’ve heard of narcissism (& by the slim chance that you havenβt check out my post here), but most of us have never heard the term Dark Triad.
