How to Tell if Your Ex Wants You Back - 10 Signs

August 24, 2008

You’ve broken up with your ex but since that day you’ve experienced nothing but regret. If she also had regrets about the break up, then winning her back would be much easier. But asking her outright may be too chancy, so perhaps a little subtlety is required here.

First, you ought to think about the circumstances that preceded the break up. Were they extreme? If the break up came about because of a bunch of small things that snowballed into something big, she probably regrets breaking up too. But it gets less clear if there was a lot of anger and hostility in the break up. If this describes your situation, then you have to look for signs from your ex that she desires to come back.

1.) Is your ex having a difficult time adjusting? If so, then it implies that you are still an important part of her life. It means that she too is suffering from this loss.

2.) Has she asked to remain friends with you? This shows a desire to keep a connection with you. Being her friend is a very good situation to be in. You have a wide open channel of communication. Eventually, you’ll be able to use this to get her back.

3.) Is she apologetic about the things she said during the break up? This indicates a desire to make things right.

4.) Does she tend to send compliments your way when you converse? Any compliment no matter how indirect is important.

5.) Is there anyone new in her life? If there’s been no relationships since the break up, maybe it’s too difficult to let go of the old times she had with you. Perhaps no one else can take your place.

6.) Has she kept open the lines of communication? Put differently, the two of you readily communicate back and forth.

7.) What do her body language and eyes tell you? If she’s interested in you, her eyes will widen and her eyebrows will raise when she first sees you. Another hopeful sign are dilated pupils. Be alert to long, protracted eye contact when you talk as well as her making little adjustments to her hair.

8.) Another sign of her interest is mirroring. Mirroring are things like an unconscious imitation of your body language or of your mood. Rhythm, loudness and the tone of your speech can also be mirrored.

9.) Is the word “you” used a lot in her dialog when she talks to you? This is a clear indication of interest in you since 2nd person speech is more personal than third person.

10) Is she still doing those small favors for you like she did in the past? If she wanted you out of her life, she just wouldn’t bother.

If some of these signs apply to your case, your prospects of getting her back look good.
