The opinion of the experienced man
According to Antoine Peytavin, love coach and founder of jerecuperemonex.com
A breakup is always a major upheaval, whether you make the decision voluntarily or whether you are a victim of it. Seeing an ex again is reassuring yourself that you exist and that you still matter in the eyes of someone with whom you shared a moment of your life. It is also, somewhere, allowing yourself to evaluate the way in which it evolves without us and keeping a little control over your life. And then, man is an animal that loves to help. So he can surely help his ex to assemble a piece of furniture, repair a computer or give some advice on his current love life. Finally, seeing your ex again also means leaving an open door in the event of a sentimental desert. Why not enjoy some physical pleasures, especially if the ex in question is still in love with him? Many exes only date for sex. Men love to feel useful and wanted, it's good for their ego!
