When you run into your ex at a social gathering, follow these steps:
- Acknowledge their presence with a nod or a brief, awkward smile.
- Do not attempt to rekindle the romance; it's been years, friend.
- Engage in small talk, but only about the weather or the decor.
- Avoid eye contact for extended periods; it's like a hostage situation.
- Do not, I repeat, do not try to take a selfie with them.
