Do you think it's possible that your ex wants to get you back as much as you want to get your ex back? Could your ex be putting out some signals that say he or she wants to get back together with you - but you don't know what those signals are so you're just not picking up on them? Is it possible that if you only knew what the signals were you'd be able to cope with your time apart better, knowing that there's a strong possibility that the two of you will get back together again?

The answers, you'll be happy to hear, are: yes, yes, and yes again.

Sign Your Ex is Still Interested in You: Your Ex Still Checks You Out Whenever They Gets The Chance

If you find that your ex cannot help staring at you and checking you out, it shows you that they are interested in you. It also proves that they have memories of you and cannot resist ogling you. This is the time you should flirt a bit with them and see if they respond readily. It will show you that they want to get back with you.

Sign Your Ex is Still Interested in You: Your Ex Gets in Touch With You From Time to Time

If your ex has initiated contact with you - via phone, text, email, Facebook, you name it - during the time you've been apart, you're not engaging in wishful thinking if you think that maybe, just maybe, it means that he or she is still interested in you (and, therefore, the possibility of a reconciliation exists).

Even if things ended badly between the two of you, your ex's efforts to make contact and stay in touch with you are a definite sign of interest - even if your ex keeps telling you that "things are over" - because there is simply no other reason that your ex would be making an effort at staying in touch.

Actions, as they say, speak louder than words.

Sign Your Ex is Still Interested in You: Your Ex Hasn't Starting Dating Even Though It's Been A While Since the Break Up

Although it does take time for people to come to closure after the end of a relationship and move on, it's still a very good sign that your ex is still interested in you if he or she hasn't started dating again.

It means that your ex simply hasn't come to closure and hasn't moved on from you yet. It means that he or she is struggling with the idea of being in a relationship with anyone other than you.

And if your ex can't imagine being in a relationship with anyone other than you, it means that he or she still has deep feelings for you, feelings that run so deep that they stand between him or her and moving on.

Sign Your Ex is Still Interested in You: Your Ex Refuses to See You in Person Even Though He or She Has Stayed in Touch With You

You might think it seems a little "out there" to say that it's a good sign that your ex is still interested in you if he or she refuses to see you in person, but it's absolutely true.

Why do I say that?

Because there's generally only one reason that your ex refuses to see you in person (outside of situations that involve restraining orders, of course):

He or she can't face you.

And there's generally only one reason that your ex can't face you:

Your ex knows that he or she still has strong feelings for you and that seeing you would only bring them to the surface, which would undermine all of the effort your ex has been making to fight them, deny them, and suppress them.

You need to know that this is a big one. And how you handle it will likely have a greater impact on whether or not you and your ex get back together again than anything else.

Handle it well, and you'll likely be back together again soon.

Handle it poorly, and you'll likely destroy your chances of getting back together again entirely.

How to Win Back Your Ex in 3 Easy Steps

So, you recently broke up with your ex and you are asking yourself, "how can I win back my ex". The most common instinct is to call and start begging. Do not do this. It makes you seem very needy and very pathetic. You need to show strength for yourself and respect for your ex. You need to show that you respect their feelings and need for space.

You may find yourself being depressed and wondering what to do. This is a normal reaction. But it is not what you want to do. Instead of making things better, it is only going to push your ex further away.

What you want to do at this point is the opposite of what you are feeling. Do you want to call your ex? Don't! Do you want to stay inside all day and cry? Don't! Here are three easy steps that will help you get back together with your ex.

Step 1 - How to get back with my ex: Accept it! Deal with it!

The first thought in your mind should be: Acceptance. Accept the fact that the break up is happening. Tell your ex that you are okay with it. Allow the "moving on" process to begin. When you do this, you are allowing a large amount of tension that is being felt by the both of you. You will both need time to think about the options before you. If your ex is having the same feelings, then he or she will find a way to get back with you.

Step 2 - How do I get them back?: Do not contact your ex!

Keep your distance. Do not make contact with your ex. Give them their own space and time to think. They need this. This will be hard to do but by giving them time to think, you are actually helping yourself. This gives them the needed time to re-evaluate the relationship. It gives them time to miss you. Remember the old saying, "absence makes the heart grow fonder"? It truly does.

This will give them the time they need to think about the relationship. Separation can lead to a feeling of importance. Meaning, they will realize how important you are to them.

Step 3 - You are finally there: Plan ahead for the get together!

Where, when, and how. Where should you meet? When should you meet? What do you say? These are all things you need to take into consideration. You have made it this far, you do not want to blow it. Careful consideration of these three points will allow you to get a better idea of whether or not your ex still loves you, and also (I cannot stress this enough), if there is any chance of you and your ex getting back together.

If you want to get back with your ex, the three steps above will improve your chances and they are a great start.

Do You Truly Wish You Can Get Back Together with Your Ex?
