I hope this list of savage quotes will help you to get some closure over your last break-up.  

In my role as a life coach, I am often helping clients to feel better about who they are, their  relationships and their life situation. 

Hopefully, this list of quotes will help you do that.

Let’s dive in.

What Is Most Savage Quote?

Savage quotes are those that cut deep into someone’s deepest insecurities. They therefore need an element of truth to them. The most savage quotes tend to insult and hurt people so deeply that they’re considered incredibly rude.   

The savagery is said to be increased when they’re directed at a specific person, especially if it’s likely that this person will read it and know it was aimed at them.

I’ve listed some examples below. The most savage quotes will be the ones most relatable to a person you’re upset with.

Should I Use These Savage Quotes As Savage Instagram Captions?

When you break up, you might feel an urge to post the best savage Instagram captions as a means of getting revenge on your ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend, but is this really a good idea?

Savage Ex Captions For Instagram

Posting savage Instagram captions might feel fulfilling, because you’re broadcasting your savage captions to a potentially huge audience. If your ex made you feel stupid or embarrassed, it might feel like posting savage Instagram captions is fighting fire with fire.

However, I should warn you: if you post savage captions like this, it won’t aid the process of getting over your ex. In fact, every time you receive a notification about your posts with savage captions, you’ll be reminded of your ex and how emotional you felt when making that post.

On top of that, it’s always possible that your ex responds perhaps by berating you privately, or by posting savage Instagram captions of their own. Is that what you want? If you miss your ex, this form of contact might feel better than nothing, but it does nothing to help you gain closure over your break-up.

How about you take that energy and focus it on finding the right person instead? 

Honestly, a somewhat intelligent ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend will realize you’re posting these savage Instagram captions because you’re still upset about the break-up, even when you post savage captions about having moved on. If you had truly moved on, you wouldn’t be posting about your ex at all. 

How Can I Make My Ex Jealous Quotes?

Quotes about having moved on with your life might work, but that’s also too obvious to have an impact on intelligent ex girlfriends or boyfriends.

If you’re hellbent on posting quotes, perhaps some general quotes on gratitude or how much you love your friends.

Also, consider this list of seduction quotes to hint that there is a potential new romance in your life.  

What Can I Post To Make My Ex Jealous?  

Anything that shows you’re having a great time without them. The more awesome activities you can post, the more it will look like you have moved on. If there are attractive people of the opposite sex in your posts, that can pull at an ex’s jealousy strings too.

I’d recommend not mentioning or even hinting about your break-up in your Instagram captions at all. This is the most effective way to show that you’ve moved on. 

Captions To Make Your Ex Jealous   

Your Instagram captions don’t have to be a quote to make your friend jealous. They don’t need to be about your relationship at all. Any Instagram captions which show that you’re having a great time can potentially make your ex jealous. Not everyone will fall into the trap, but it’s worth a shot if you’re determined to instill jealousy in your ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend.

How Can I Impress My Ex?

The best way to impress your ex is to show that you’ve moved on from the break-up and you’ve found a way to keep enjoying your life. If you can also show you’ve got over the problems that caused the break-up, even better.

Social media is a great tool to passively show this. Social media posts suggest you’re too busy enjoying life to even think about messaging your ex directly. 

What Is The Best Message For Ex?

The best message for your ex is no message. Historically speaking, the ‘no contact’ rule has been proven to make people more curious about their exes. It’s just the rules of human psychology. We desire something we feel like we can’t get.

Perhaps you’ll want to extend the ‘no contact’ rule to avoiding shady captions on your social media.
