How Can I Tell If My Ex Boyfriend Still Likes Me? The Secret Ways Of Telling What He Really Thinks!

How Can I Tell If My Ex Boyfriend Still Likes Me Breaking up is always a difficult time for us. Sometimes it is difficult for both parties, sometimes only one, but there is always heartbreak one way or another.

One thing we must bear in mind during the heartbreak is that no matter how much we may want to stay together and be with our ex, they might not feel the same.

This is also made much more difficult due to the high emotions involved at the time of the break up. What I am saying here is that we can often read things into situations and get the wrong end of the stick because we are highly emotionally charged and a lot of “wishful thinking” can come into it.

So, please bear in mind while you are reading this article that it might be good to clear your head for a couple of days if it was a recent break up and take stock of things to make sure you are being realistic.

You never know, you might even discover that you don't want to be with him anyway and it was just the fear of being alone, fear of rejection or “being the loser” that caused you to want him back anyway!

Assuming that you do want him back and you do have genuine feelings about him and want to know if he feels the same about you then here are a few tips which might help...

Firstly you need to bear in mind that boys don't always show their feelings very well so it can often be very hard indeed to tell if they do actually have lingering feelings for you.

Think about when you were together, how did they communicate, in fact, did they communicate at all? If they found it hard to talk about their feelings anyway then imagine how difficult it will be for them to talk about their feelings after a break up...

With this in mind then perhaps it is better to speak to other people about it. I know this may sound crazy but guys often talk to their friends and family more than they do to us!

It also works both ways, they may ask our friends and family about us, “Is she dating?” “How is she?” and of course he may express remorse for the break up to his friends and family or say that he wishes he was still with you.

So, if you are on good terms with his friends and family it might be a good idea to slip something into conversation when you next bump into them. Just don't go stalking them to find out!

Of course it can also work the other way around... I once dated a guy for a little under a year and his mother was putting pressure on him and I to marry.

Eventually we broke up on good terms and remained friends but his mother was always calling me and telling me how he had asked about me and how we should get together etc. when in reality it was her that wanted it more than both of us, so be careful of possessive mother in laws!

Then again, if his mother does mention him in conversation and says he asked about you then it could be a sign he still has feelings for you...

Of course it may even come from him if you suddenly happen to always “bump into each other” now and again. It might be a coincidence but it also might be something he planned in order to see you again... I know I've done it in the past!

I think the easiest way of telling is if you can both sit together and talk about it but I realise that men don't always find that easy so we may have to resort to running around like headless chicken always wondering but I want you to bear this in mind girls...

Always remember that a man cannot make you whole. A man cannot complete you. A man cannot make you confident, feel great about yourself or make you love yourself.

You can survive and be happy without any man even though you may not immediately feel like it at the time so search your feelings and gauge whether he really was the right one for you or you just didn't like to loose or are simply feeling lonely and above all be true to yourself and love yourself for who you are...
