Do you ever read through old chats on text or WhatsApp? And just cringe at how much you liked someone? Like ew.

Never. I delete chats as soon as I send to avoid said cringe and d*unk texting in the future.

Oh I like reading things back and seeing how much I liked someone even if that situation has gone it reminds me of the joy of desire and the variations of it. Even my long term ex it is nice if something pops up.

No because it can be painful. Did that once a few years ago and really regretted it.

What I do do though is if someone says they've never said something, or they tell me something I know isn't true, I'll search for the keyword to make sure I'm not crazy. It's learned behaviour after a less than ideal relationship where I was frequently told I'd imagined something, they hadn't said that, I always behave in a certain way... it's a little way of making sure I'm not actually crazy or I'm not behaving in that way all the time.

Sometimes it's helpful to see in hindsight that you weren't getting what you deserved.

Real!

I look back at chats sometimes and I’m like I was so blinded by love.

Not an issue I've had, my only sexy chats have been/are with Mr KC and an ex-FWB. No others to look at

I recently deleted the messages me and my baby bro shared. Sad and painful but I had to move on.

Old emails with someone tend to still break my heart all over again so I avoid going there.

Away for Christmas

Some I do.

They are a form of memory keepsake just like a photograph. Especially of those you remember fondly, even more so when you won't ever see them or talk to them again.

I have deleted plenty of conversations over the years. Never to be be thought of.

Some I keep and don't always read over. But they mean something to me.

One I still have and I've been able to look back at because it's still something that gives the grief feeling. Hurts too much.

Fortunately I was dating in an era where nothing was saved apart from a few old photos and a love letter or two. I regularly thank whoever is in charge for this

Oh god no. I can barely stand to read what I put a few messages back if it is of the heartfelt variety. Delete it all then consign it too hazy memory, of things that may or may not have been a good idea.
