Q: A new study found people who do this are more likely to exhibit the traits of a PSYCHOPATH?

A: stay friends with their ex

A new study out of Oakland University in Michigan found that people who stay close friends with their exes are more likely to be PSYCHOPATHS.  Meaning they have “dark” personality traits, like they’re narcissistic or selfish.

And that makes sense, since the main reason someone stays friends with their ex is because they still WANT something from them.

The things we want can range from emotional support, to sex.

And yep . . . men are more likely to stay friends with an ex if they think there’s a chance they’ll get something from them.
