I love how you come to the defense of gay men while also trumpeting the stereotype that if someone is gay, they must be promiscuous. That same ignorance is what allowed this silly caveat to exist in the first place.

That second paragraph may be the most unintentionally funny pieces of uninformed editorializing/guilt diffusion I’ve ever read on lifehacker.

Goddammit, that’s not what “nonplussed” means.

This is really just horsecrap. Almost every advice columnist, psychiatrist, etc. says the same exact thing about post-breakup communication: *no contact*. In Facebook terms, it’s just plain simple: block the ex, delete the photos (you can always download them beforehand), and move on.
