One of the trickiest questions to answer when it comes to relationships is, "Does my ex love me?" After all, a breakup means both people stopped caring for one another, right? This is not necessarily the case. Just because you've been dumped doesn't mean your ex stopped loving you; it may mean they had some things they needed to contend with without you in their life.

Yet, a time may come when you ask yourself, "Does my ex love me?" because your ex is suddenly back in your life and would like to be friends again. How do you get the answer to your question? How do you know if your ex is in love with you or just wants to stay friends? This is when you'll need to closely examine their actions to get the answer to your question.

Sign 1 - She/He Contacts You First

You may be asking, "Does my ex love me" because he/she contacted you out of the blue. Not because of anything important but because they wanted to talk to you and see how you've been. You may even spend a great deal of time on the phone talking about odds and ends. She/he may even bring up the relationship but nothing too personal, just to judge how you react to the topic.

Sign 2 - She/He Invites You To Public Venues With Them and Friends

Once you've started communicating again and on your way to being good friends, your ex may invite you out with them and friends. Many times this "friends outing" is a ploy to see if you'll even go out with them as part of the group. You can bet that you're getting an answer to, "Does my ex love me" if they want to include you in the outings with their friends again. It may also be a precursor to them asking you out on a date, where it's just you and your ex.

Sign 3 - She/He Compliments You About The Way You Look

Many people, after a breakup, will improve the way they look. Not because they look bad but because they want to look better, all in the hopes to do one of two things. First, they may look to getting together with someone new. Second, they may be trying to get back together with their ex. They may join an exercise program to lose weight. They may cut their hair or dye it. They may purchase new clothes to highlight their physical changes. If you've been talking to your ex and decide to take them up on their offer to go out with friends, listen for compliments they give you on the way you look. Chances are you're getting an answer to your, "Does my ex love me" question.

Sign 4 - She/He Touches You When Out Together

When you're out with your ex and you're wondering, "Does my ex love me", watch for touching signs from your ex. For instance, do they stand close by you? Do they occasionally or incessantly touch you on the arm or hand? Remember that touching is very personal and the repeated touching by your ex is a very good sign that they do indeed love you.

Sign 5 - She/He Asks You Out Directly

Rest assured, the surest way to get the answer to your, "Does my ex love me" question is them asking you out directly. It's true that women do this far less than men but it does happen. If your ex asks you out on a date without anyone else around, you can take that as a sure bet that your ex loves you.

No longer do you have to wonder, "Does my ex love me", as you have five signs that can give you the conclusion that your ex is attracted and in love with you. This is when you need to figure out for yourself if you're really ready to jump back into the relationship frying pan. Has everything been worked out that, if you gave it another chance, another breakup would be far less likely to occur?

How to Get Back Your Ex - Avoid This Breakup Mistake Or Lose Your Ex Forever

Making your ex jealous as a way of getting them back is a tactic that's often recommended by relationship gurus, but it's not one I'd recommend under any circumstances

Please, don't do it!. I've seen this backfire so many times and not only that, it often makes matters so much worse. It may work initially, but soon enough you'll be right back where you started... or worse!

So why doesn't jealousy work?

When you're ex sees you with a new "partner," they'll probably come to one of the following conclusions...

1. You are no longer available. Any lingering doubts they had are now replaced with a clear sign they should move on, and perhaps start a new relationship themselves.

2. You are clearly trying to make them jealous, or you are just going out with this other person "on the rebound". In either case, you run the risk of looking immature, which is obviously not an attractive characteristic. If your ex sees through your plan, you efforts to get back together are dead.

3. Initially, either consciously or sub-consciously, your ex may wonder how they stack up against the new person in your life. They may even wonder if they are good enough for you. And for the sake of satisfying their ego, they may get back together with you.

This is what some of the so-called experts have tried to sell. In most cases you will not get back together and if you're one of the rare cases that do get back together, your chances for staying together are very, very slim indeed.

That's because, once you're back together your ex's ego (and any doubts) are satisfied. Once you're back together, they realize the other person you were with was just a passing fancy and doesn't stack up to them. And they realize that no, you are not too good for them, as you took them back.

And once the thrill of "the game" is over, they are left in a relationship that is the same as when you both broke up. I've rarely seen a relationship last in this situation and almost it almost always ends up in another breakup.

Let's look at the real issue. You want to get back with your ex. You want to restore love to your relationship. It stands to reason then, you should do things which help you reach this goal, not make your ex jealous. In other words, you should do things which foster positive feelings about you and not do things which foster negative feelings about you.

All of this may sound over-simplified, but often the obvious things need to be said. All too often, after a breakup, our emotions take hold of us and we can't work out up from down or left from right.

In the 3 examples listed above, none of them will result in your ex feeling emotions of real love or attraction towards you.

Jealousy isn't one of the feelings you should want your ex to feel... under any circumstances. Jealousy can lead to resentment, which quite simply will spell disaster for any plans of reconciliation.

If your best efforts at getting back together, aren't working, don't despair help's at hand.
