To look for signs that your ex will eventually come back is perfectly natural and reasonable if you want to reunite with them.
This is especially true if you are using the No Contact Rule and are wondering if it is making an impact on your ex boyfriend or ex girlfriend.
Since you are going to look for signs and try to determine if a certain action or inaction is signaling that your ex is eventually going to come back or is thinking about reaching out about it, I have put together a list for you of indications that there is a good chance that your ex will eventually return.
Sign 1: Your Ex Contacts You
I’m not saying that this is the first action that an ex will take or that it’s the first indication that your ex is doubting the breakup.
It’s just the first action that I’ll write about.
Your ex knows that if they are even considering getting back together with you that they need to re-establish contact with you and reconnect.
They also know that they need to test the water a bit so to speak to see if you are at least open to getting back together or if you are too upset at them to even consider it.
Often that is at least part of the reason for your ex reaching out to you and it’s a good sign that your ex will eventually come back to you.
Nothing is absolute, but things are certainly showing promise if your ex reaches out to you.
It is one of the signs your ex will come back eventually after a breakup.
Sign 2: Your Ex Speaks of Memories That You Two Share
This can be something your ex talks to you about or to a friend.
This is an important exhibit of evidence that your ex is doing a lot of thinking, reflecting, and reconsideration.
It’s your ex wanting to feel intimacy with you.
Fond memories of experiences that you two shared allow your ex to feel that closeness, connection, and chemistry you two shard and it’s usually an effort on their part to relive it.
Wanting to relive it means that they miss it — at least to some degree. And that is a terrific hint that your ex will come back to you in time.
Sign 3: Your Ex Shows Jealousy
Jealousy is a symptom of an ex who didn’t expect to feel concern of losing you.
Seeing evidence that someone else could be taking what still feels like theirs can be the wakeup call that they need to realize your place in their life and how important the relationship that you two shared really is to them.
I will add that it’s important that you don’t do things simply to try to make an ex feel jealous.
If your ex suspects that you are trying to it can actually have the opposite impact and push your ex even further away.
It actually seems to work best when your ex finds out through ways that aren’t obvious or aren’t broadcasting what you are doing.
In other words, when it looks like you are trying to keep it private, it seems to impact your ex more.
It is what it is, but an ex who feels jealously is one who is probably going to come back in time.
Sign 4: They Ask About Your Future Plans
When your ex starts wanting to know what your future holds and what you are thinking about your future, this demonstrates that their heart and mind are getting very close to where you want them to be (if you want to get back together with him or her).
Often times this is the sign of an ex wondering about their chances with you for a change.
Your ex is wondering if you have moved on to some degree and are seeing a future without them.
It’s the mark of an ex who hopes they haven’t completely destroyed their chances of being with you.
Sign 5: You See Your Ex Too Often To Be Coincidence
If you run into your ex occasionally, that’s fine and shouldn’t raise an eyebrow, but if it happens to be at places where your ex knows you will be — like a weekly class or gathering — it can be a sign.
If you start to notice it happening too many times for coincidence to make sense, it’s probably not.
Your ex isn’t stupid and if he or she knows that you will be somewhere at a certain time, they could be trying to see what you are up to, if you are alone, or hoping that you’ll say something to them to reassure them that you could still be easily gotten back.
Once is a coincidence and perhaps twice is as well, but beyond that is a clue that your ex is likely doing it on purpose.
Just because you see any of these signs doesn’t mean that you should bring them up to your ex in conversation or that you should start reaching out to them.
Continue doing what you have been doing by letting your ex experience life without you and to have to be concerned about losing you.
If you want to reunite with your ex, they have to experience some of the negatives that I have mentioned or else they won’t see the need to make any changes.
