So you’re trying to figure how to make your ex jealous, huh? Why? Are you just trying to get your revenge or are you trying to get them back? Jealousy can do both, and maybe at the same time.
But you’ve got to make a plan, because it’s easy to slip up when you’re doing this and make yourself look like you’ve gone crazy. That isn’t going to make anyone jealous, it will just make you look like a creep.
Don’t Appear Insecure
If you’re posting on social media about how hurt you are, how life is so hard, how it’s all unfair – you are setting yourself up for complete failure. Your ex isn’t going to want to get an insecure, hurt loser back. They won’t think they’ve been burned either, if anything they’ll just laugh you off or feel sorry for you but sorry enough to come back.

Broadcasting insecurity is a great way to alienate yourself from your other friends too. No one wants to walk into a bear-pit of depression and anxiety, so don’t dig that hole.
Ignore Them – and Feel Good About It
Are you texting your ex? Stop it. Are you looking at their Instagram pictures? Quit. Are you stalking their friends online? Just don’t. You need time apart. Block them if you have to, delete their number as the nuclear option but just stop talking to your ex.
If you cut them off, they’re going to be confused. They’ll wonder why you aren’t trying to get them back right away. Now you’re starting to build the fire of jealousy. Next step is to throw gasoline on the flames.
Improve Yourself
Make a list of all the things that went wrong with you during the relationship. Did you get a little fat? Could you use a new look? Did your ex keep you from spending money – or spending way too much?
The total opposite of broadcasting your pain, broadcast new successes. They have to be new – don’t start pining for the good old days. This builds an air of success, it tells your ex that they were holding you back. Now you’ve turned the tables on them and they’re going to want to know what’s making your a new, better person.
Date Someone Totally Different
If you do all of the above but end up with someone that’s a photocopy of your ex, they might end up jealous or they might just laugh at you. Date someone totally different and watch them get jealous fast.
They’ll start comparing themselves to your new date, but they won’t be able to figure it out. Because there’s nothing to figure out! You’re into someone different, with a different look, a different idea for fun, a different outlook on life. You know what else? It’s fun. You might learn something about yourself, while making your ex jealous.
Just Wait
Will this work? It might, but then again it might not. Give it enough time and see if your ex gets back in touch with you.
They may try to contact you from a different number or even stalk you from a social media account you don’t recognize. Maybe they’ll send an email from address you don’t know. Run that through a reverse number lookup and see who it is. Keep a record.
If you don’t make your ex jealous, don’t turn into a stalker. First of all, that’s scary. Secondly, how is this good for you? Besides, if you’ve found someone totally different – as suggested above – why are you still worrying about your ex? Enjoy your life.
