Critical reception
Danielle Holian of Atwood Magazine gave a positive review, praising the lyricism; "Boone's lyrical simplicity is its greatest strength here – he doesn't overcomplicate the narrative, but instead speaks directly to the heart of anyone who's experienced the awkwardness of seeing an ex when you're no longer on the same page.", production; "The blend of electronic elements with traditional instrumentation lends itself to a sound that feels both modern and timeless, a delicate balance that speaks to Boone’s versatility as an artist." and the song's "ability to be both personal and universally relatable."[4]
