After a breakup, does an ex get to stay on your grid?


After the breakup, do you delete or hide away (or ‘archive’, to use Instagram’s preferred term) every trace of your ex on your Instagram and other social media profiles, or not? What do you do with the footprints of your relationship on Instagram once it’s over? — Unsplash

Picture this: Your relationship is over. Now what? You probably let your close friends and family know, as well as your therapist, who will shepherd your healing journey. You might even turn to Spotify, Shakespeare or the StairMaster to cope.

Eventually, you’ll delete or hide away (“archive”, to use Instagram’s preferred term) every trace of your ex on your Instagram and other social media profiles. Or you won’t, choosing instead to leave the photos and videos of your past lover on your page. What do you do with the footprints of your relationship on Instagram once it’s over? There’s no right or wrong move. It really depends on whom you ask.
