Does Your Ex Still Have Feelings for You?

After a breakup, it's hard to know where you stand emotionally because your whole emotional gravitation center seems to have shifted dramatically, your internal radar doesn't work very well anymore and your power of intuition finds itself unable to read the signs anymore. You see yourself forced to move on from a situation you still have affective ties to, but getting back together with your ex seems like an impossibility because you don't know how he feels about you and the prospect of getting back together. You need to make a decision and knowing how he feels would help your decision making greatly. Here are a few things you need to look for if you want to know if your ex still has feelings for you or not.

Does your ex call you often, sometimes for no apparent reason? If so, he's probably missing you and needs you in his life. He might not even have realized that he does and is doing it automatically. It's up to you to show him that what's he's doing might originate from the feelings he still has for you and out of a desire to spend more time with you. If your relationship has ended but you still go about fulfilling the same roles in each other's lives that you used to before the break up, then you might not be alone in not wanting to move on, in fact, your ex might want to get back together with you as much as you do.

Is he curious about what's going on in your life, and most of all, your dating habits? Does he ask questions about men you might be dating, or has he taken a keen interest in your personal life? Does he act jealous and sometimes even insecure? If he's been doing those things, chances are that he's still interested in having a relationship with you and is testing the field to see how where you stand and if getting back together with you might be possible.

Does he seem to feel bad about what happened between you? Is he remorseful about what he did and trying to make it up to you? Does he try to get close to you and is he being tender and thoughtful? That might mean that he understood that your breaking up with you was the result of misjudgment on his part and he's trying to make amends. At this point, the ball is pretty much in your court, and whatever you decide, you can do it with the knowledge that you have two options, to move on and start a new life for yourself or to go back and give your old relationship another chance.
