How to erase your ex online for the viral “We can’t be friends” TikTok trend

We all know Miss Grande’s new song is sad, but the viral “we can’t be friends” TikTok trend takes melancholy to a whole new level. 

Since Ariana Grande released “we can’t be friends (wait for your love)” on 8 March 2024, the song has taken TikTok by storm. Whether it’s a makeup tutorial or heartfelt lip-syncing, the audio has been used on repeat. Recently, a viral trend has been going around, making the song even more depressing. 

The “We can’t be friends” photo trend on TikTok has caused users to edit their exes out of photos to the lyrics, “We can’t be friends. But I’d like to just pretend. You cling to your papers and pens. Wait until you like me again. Wait for your love.”So, if you’re looking to hop on this emotional bandwagon, here’s how to do it.

First, you will need to find some photos of you and your ex. Then download the Facetune app to use the vanish tool. It’s basically a magic wand that erases unwanted people from a picture, making it look like they were never there. Then you can add these photos onto any video-editing application, along with the audio for “we can’t be friends.” Remember the sequence of shots: start with the couple photo, then the edited one (sans ex), and repeat. There you have it: you’ve deleted your ex from your life (sort of).
