Have you ever stopped doing or using something you enjoyed because of an ex? (beehaw.org)

I’ve found I can no longer enjoy things I used to because of association with an ex. The last person I dated loved facebook, anime, and certain songs… now they remind me of them, and I instantly become agitated. Even if I liked certain things before they came along it doesn’t matter.

Anyone else experience this?

Definitely feel free to take a break from certain activities, but don't give them up if you enjoy them. You'll eventually be able to enjoy them on your own again. Just give it time :)
