10 Ways To Avoid Hooking Up With Your Ex
By Allie Churchill. Posted on .
Last week, we kicked off our annual Break Up With Your Ex campaign to bring you great content on how to finally break up with your ex for good! We've consulted our experts on why we choose the wrong relationships; we've outlined the steps to erase your ex's digital footprint (and stop stalking them online); and we've shared one writer's story on how being dumped was the best thing for her love life.
Now, we want to hear from you! We've teamed up with Astroglide to ask readers for advice: "What's the best way to avoid ex sex — in 10 words or less?"
