5 Signs Your Ex Still Loves You By Robbie T. James At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Breaking up with your ex can be a very trying time in your life. The heartache can run very deep, even making it difficult to focus on other important things in life such as work or hobbies. Whether your ex left you or you left your ex, it is highly possible that they still love you.

Relationships are complex - one of the most complex things known to man. Human feelings are complex, as well. For example, it is entirely possible to still love someone and at the same time break up with them. This is one of the mysteries of human nature, but it is true.

The fact is, you may be still thinking about your ex and they you. The love may still be there for both of you: now wouldn't it be a shame that two people who still love each other are staying apart for no good reason. But, how can you know for sure?

Here are 5 signs your ex still loves you:

1. They call you at least once or twice per week

Does your ex still call you at least once or twice per week? If so, hopefully it is obvious to you that this is the behavior of someone who is still in love. After all, when people break up and there are no lingering feelings of love and affection, the last thing they want to do is to call their ex - they want to be out exploring other relationships. Even if your ex just says they want to be friends with you but call you frequently, take that as a big sign that they still harbor romantic feelings for you.

2. They ask about you when they see your friends

When your ex bumps into friends, acquaintances and co-workers, does he or she often ask about how you are doing or what you have been up to? Take this as a strong sign that their feelings are still there for you. After all, even if your ex does not out-and-out tell your friends they still love you (and, why would they?), you should take it as a very strong indication of their true feelings that they are still asking about you.

3. They frequently contact your parents to chat

If you dated your ex for a period of months or years, it is quite possible that you became very friendly with their parents, siblings, or other family members - and they yours. These additional relationships may have evolved to ones whereby your ex occasionally even went shopping, went to the movies, or did other activities with your family members. However, in most cases, upon a serious breakup in situations like this the ex stops seeing the extended family: if nothing else because it starts feeling awkward to hang out with them! So, if your ex still calls or drops by to visit your parents or other family members, take this as a sign that they are still feeling love for you.

4. They still keep a picture of you nearby

Has anybody who knows your ex, such as friends or colleagues, noticed that your ex still keeps a picture of you at their desk at work? Or, do they have photos of you on their keychain, their mobile phone, laptop, or other places where it is displayed prominently? Make no mistake: this is not a "friendship" picture. This is a picture indicating that the love is still there.

5. They mention you in their text messages, MySpace page, blogs, etc.

Does your ex Twitter about you constantly? Do they ask or write about you in their MySpace page, blogs, or other quasi-public spaces and places? You may think this behavior natural given that the two of you were so close until so recently, but I assure you this is not natural behavior for a mere platonic, non-romantic relationship. It is a sign that they are still thinking about you every day. They are probably still in love with you.

If your ex still loves you, you will know it because much of their behavior indicates that they are still trying to live the life you both lived when you were still together. Now, the question becomes: what are you going to do about it?
