While trying to put a broken relationship back together, it's crucial to look for indications of progress. When your exboyfriend wants you back, there will always be signs he still has feelings for you. Using these signs to your advantage can help get your ex to want you again.
Is your ex boyfriend sending you mixed signals? If so,
it's probably because he still has unresolved feelings... and doesn't know how to handle them.
Very rarely is a breakup completely definitive. In most cases there's always an element of doubt, and this is usually what brings couples back together.
Think about that for a second. How many people do you know who have broken up and then gotten back together again? Probably lots, and that's because unresolved feelings play a big part in giving those relationships another shot.
So what are the signs your ex boyfriend still loves you? And even better, how can you use that knowledge to win your ex back?
You Ex Keeps The Lines of Communication Open
There are two types of breakups: real ones and trial runs. If your ex walked away without so much as a glance over his shoulder, it's possible that he's truly ready to move on. But if your ex boyfriend still calls, emails, text-messages, or otherwise stays in touch with you (i.e. Facebook, MySpace, etc...) - it's a sure sign he's not willing to let you go at the moment. He'd much rather keep tabs on you right now, to know whether or not he can get you back.
Your Ex Asks You When You Plan To See Other People
An ex boyfriend who doesn't want you back won't care much about you dating someone else. But an ex who's not 100% sure of the breakup will do everything in his power to keep you waiting around for him while he "tries out" being single.
Watch for signs that your ex could be jealous, especially of your new single life. If he's trying to guilt you into staying home even though you're broken up, your boyfriend is probably looking to get back together with you... eventually.
Your Exboyfriend Always Mentions How Single He Still Is
A big part of expecting you to stay single involves letting you know that he's still single too. Therefore, an ex boyfriend who keeps you very up-to-date as to his dating status is trying way too hard. He wants you to know that you shouldn't go anywhere just yet, because he's not going anywhere.
You've Become Friends With Your Ex Boyfriend
It will usually happen at your ex's suggestion: "let's still be friends". But what your boyfriend is really saying here is this: I'd like to keep you around just in case I change my mind, but until then it's good to know what you're up to.
Friendship after romance is a complete fallacy. It's never going to happen, and if it does it's never going to last. You'll be jealous of your ex's new girlfriend, or he'll be jealous of your new love interest. Either way your friendship is doomed, so don't try to work this angle thinking it will help get your boyfriend back.
In the end though, an ex who wants to be friends with you is showing big signs of still caring for you. Your boyfriend still feels emotionally bonded to you as a couple, and this can help get him to fall for you again.
