You KNOW You've Had at Least 1 of These 11 Types of Exes

If it's been six months since you broke up with your ex and he's still texting you daily asking what you had for lunch, you might be dealing with a stage-five clinger. Maybe you've found yourself wondering "what if" more and more, or perhaps you even met up with him to find out (how'd that work out for you?). Hey, maybe you've got us all beat and you and your former beau are the best of friends. We've all got exes, and with them comes considerable baggage — some good, some bad. Below are some of the types you've probably seen come and (hopefully) go.
