A romantic relationship isn't done and dusted after the last argument or the return of borrowed books. The real end comes when the man stops watching the woman's Instagram stories. It's the ultimate digital detox that signals he has moved on, even ignoring a selfie with strategic cleavage.

Sophie Rodriguez, aged 29, shared her experience: "After Tom and I split, we blocked each other. My Stories were like sending coded messages to a spy. He watched my 'happier than ever' girls' night out video, every sunset quote, and even my shameless video of visiting grandma's grave."

"Then he vanished from my viewer list. I went through denial, hoping it was a glitch, negotiating that he might be busy or... not among the living, and finally acceptance. He's over me. He shouldn't be, but he is," she lamented.

"Even my seductive Solero ice cream video in January got no rise out of him. Though, it did attract a horde of reply guys, which was, let's say, some comfort."

Ex, Tom Logan, 27, commented: "Instagram has provided a wonderfully gentle off-ramp from infatuation. Each misattributed inspirational quote made my heart grow a little less fond."
