Let me be very straight up, you want to get back together with your ex but you’re not sure if he still misses or not. You won’t be reading this article otherwise. It’s okay to feel this way. Maybe you feel you guys broke up over something stupid and he deserves another chance. Of course, you don’t want it to be one-sided. You want to know if he feels the same too.

Look no further! You’re right where you need to be. Here we will go through all the signs with you so you don’t have to keep wondering. We have all the answers to your questions!

1. He still puts all your photos up on the wall, or other things you got together

You should put away all the things that remind you of your ex when a relationship ends, even if not throwing them all away. Still letting them lying around the house means he will be reminded of you every time he sees them. He still misses you and doesn’t want to let go.

2. Your ex is still trying to be in the same circle as you

You know how couples do things together that they may not really like, they just do it as a way of bonding? Your ex may continue to do those activities after you break up, in hopes of running into you so he can see you. Many couples take dance lessons together. Usually, one will stop taking or switch to another center after a breakup so they won’t run into their ex. There’s only one reason why your ex still tries to be in the same circle as you. He wants to see you and very possibly wants you back,

Signs your Ex Misses you on Social Media

3. Your ex checks out your story and likes all your posts

You will see that every time you post on social media, he will give it a like within the first 12 hours. And he looks at all your story posts on Instagram. These are all signs that he is very curious about what you’re up to and wants to know closely what you’re doing.

He may even react to all your posts or reply to your story to get your attention, to make sure that you know he has seen your posts. It’s probably his way to start the conversation with you without sounding too awkward.

4. Your ex is stalking you and the ones that interact with you on social media

Okay, stalking as in how you would stalk your crush on social media, don’t confuse it with the creepy ‘’You’’ (if you don’t know this Netflix show yet, you should) way. Your ex seems highly interested in who you are friends with and what you’re up to. Not only will they stalk your recent activities, but they will also see who is liking your posts these days and who those people are, in order to see if you’ve made any new friends.

In his defense, he probably doesn’t mean to look creepy. It’s just like what you do when you have a crush and you want to know who all those girls liking his posts are. It all depends on how much you want to be back with him. You will find this stalkerish thing cute if you want to be back with him, or just annoying if you aren’t interested.

5. He still complements you a lot

‘’I can’t wait to see that beautiful face.’’ ‘’Haha, you crazy girl! Such an awesome girl!’’

No one will ever complement their ex this much when they aren’t trying to get back together or still miss them, not even when they ended things on good terms. We all love a good old complement about how pretty we are, or that we are a little crazy and goofy (in a good way). It certainly helps to get into our hearts if you know what to say.

Your ex is still complementing you a lot because you’re still the same wonderful person he first fell in love with and very clearly he misses that a lot. And this is also a good way for your ex to tell whether you feel the same or not. You would avoid him or be cold to his complements if you don’t wish to start things over. If you are happy for his compliments and continue, it gives him the green light to go ahead to ask you out next to see if you can fix things.

6. Constantly checking up on you to see what you’re up to

Honestly, everything you do now is none of your ex’s business, since you’re not together anymore. You should be able to tell that he is texting you because he wants to be more than just a friend when he is asking about your day every day. Most people don’t even share with their best friend how their day is every single day.

He can’t adjust to a life without you and he wants to feel that you’re still by his side. That’s why he is holding onto you and keep asking you questions, to feel that he is still a part of your life. No one asks about someone else’s day every day just to be friendly. He still misses you and wants to be part of your life.

Signs your ex misses you but won't admit it

7. He asks your mutual friends about you

He doesn’t ask you directly how you’re doing because he doesn’t want you to think he is not over you, but that’s just overdoing it. Why would you ask a mutual friend about your ex and not the ex herself if everyone’s moved on? Either you don’t care enough to ask or you ask your ex directly.

Prying about an ex through a mutual friend just shows how much you still want to be part of their life but just won’t admit it. He could be afraid of finding out that you don’t care about him so he has to pretend he doesn’t care. Or he just doesn’t want to be the one that says he misses you first. Whatever the reason is, it’s already clear that he is curious about you and wants updates on you.

8. Your ex still goes to places you used to hang out together and acts surprised when you run into each other

Come on, it’s literally your favorite place together. Acting surprised to run into someone at their favorite spot is just too much. I’ll probably buy that it’s just a coincidence if you don’t act all surprised like you didn’t see me coming. But then again, it makes sense for people to act all weird when they don’t want to admit something.

First of all, it's already quite weird to hang around your favorite spot as if it doesn’t make you upset at all. The fact that your ex would do it often in hopes of running into you just confirms that he misses you a lot and wants to see you. It’s likely to be somewhere between your work and home, somewhere that he is sure you would pass through because you have to.

Signs your ex misses you during no contact

9. He buys things that are more your taste than his

Whenever he buys something, he will get what you like instead of what he likes. For example, instead of getting a Thor phone case, he would get an Iron Man phone case because you like Iron Man. This is something that probably he doesn’t even realise himself. He just does it because it comes naturally. Deep down he is still putting you first.

By looking at his Iron Man phone case, he will think about the time you two watched Infinity War 6 times in the cinema and smile. It’s his way of missing you, without talking to him, probably he feels that you don’t want to talk to him. Even when you’re not there with him, he still wants to feel part of you is. That’s why he is doing all these things, probably also in hopes of you finding out as well.

10. He does things that you like and shares it on social media

He would go hiking or watch your favorite movie and uploads pictures on social media, hoping to get your attention since you two aren’t in contact. It’s not that he wants you to notice him and drops him a message, more that he just wants to be a part of your life by doing what you like.

It’s a very subtle way to express his feelings. He may be trying to move on but right now, he still misses you a lot.
