10 Texts from Exes Who Should Definitely Stay Away

There are all kinds of feelings that might be engendered by glancing at your phone. But maybe one of the most heart-stopping is when you have a look at a new alert and see that it’s a message from an old flame…a flame that really should have gone out a long time ago.

Maybe it gives you butterflies, maybe it makes you angry. Maybe it brings up pain. Sometimes it just feels like you’ve been contacted from beyond the grave by a ghost.

The important thing to remember if it all goes wrong is that you need to stay calm and screenshot this conversation to share it with the internet for the lols, like these people did.
