TikTokker weeps after ex breaks her heart again

Briefly News previously reported on a woman who left South African netizens emotional after posting a TikTok video which showcased her looking happy and all dolled up as she shared that she finally decided to rekindle a relationship with an ex.

The video goes on to show the young woman bawling her eyes out as she cries in the back seat of a car. Without revealing much, things did not go so well, and the good sis probably should have avoided the ex at all costs.
