This smiling-through-the-pain meme works on so many levels, but none quite as much as when you decide to form hard guy after getting dumped.

1. When they dump you then add “…but we can still be friends”.

2. When you foolishly agree to stay friends and they start gisting you about the new person they like.

3. When your friends are insulting your ex to make you feel better but you’re still in love with them.

4. When you see your ex with that “just a friend” person they told you not to worry about.

5. When someone who doesn’t know you’ve broken up asks about them.

6. When your ex said they needed time to be single but you see them with someone new the next day.

7. When the first thing they tweeted after dumping you was “finally free”.

Instead of you to unfollow them, you’re still doing “I like their tweets”.
8. When you go and stalk their Instagram page and see they’ve already deleted all your pictures.

9. When you get the notification that they have changed their Facebook status from ‘in a relationship’ to ‘single’.

10. When your mum tells you that she never liked them.

11. When you see a picture of them looking hotter than they did when you were still together.

12. When you text them “I miss you” and they don’t reply.

13. When your ex does alter call at church to announce their engagement.

14. When they invite you to their wedding since you guys are now forming ‘friends’.
