The Boomerang Effect: Why Exes Come Back w/ Meenu

#177: That ex who keeps circling back into your life? There"s a fascinating psychology behind it that rarely has anything to do with genuine love or reconciliation. In this raw and revealing conversation, we unpack the real reasons behind those surprise texts and "how have you been?" messages that seem to arrive just when you"ve started to heal. The statistics might surprise you—only 10% of exes reach out with genuine intentions to reconcile, while the vast majority are driven by boredom, ego, or a desire for control. Meenu explains the science of mirror neurons, which create psychic-like connections between people who were once close, and breaks down how our brains develop addictive cycles in on-again, off-again relationships. Most importantly, this episode offers a roadmap for breaking free from these toxic patterns. Through personal stories and professional insights, we explore why we often confuse intense emotional highs and lows (what psychology calls "limerence") with genuine love. You"ll learn why waiting to feel confident before cutting contact never works, and how self-respect is developed through actions, not feelings. Whether you"re the one tempted to reach out to an ex or dealing with someone who keeps reappearing in your life, this conversation provides both clarity and practical strategies. Discover how to distinguish between genuine opportunities for reconciliation and situations that will only lead to repeated heartbreak. Ready to break the cycle once and for all? This episode is your first step toward reclaiming your power and peace.
