The woman often finds out that the broken-down ex-boyfriend or ex-husband has been posting up the in-laws hard (her parents and siblings) and friends and selling his story of the torture of being alone and how much he misses his woman. And oftentimes it works, because the parents and friends often saw the best side of him during the infrequent family get togethers. Someone in your inner circle is going to comment that you are being too hard on him by not giving him a second chance (Rihanna’s father, anyone?), that the two former lovers are so cute together and make pretty babies and how happy the woman was with him in her life.
