Loving a man you are no longer with is never easy. Unfortunately, sometimes in relationships both partners aren’t in agreement for what they want. If your boyfriend has told you it’s over, but you still love him, you’re stuck in a very difficult place emotionally. Your mind is bound to play tricks on you and you may believe that your ex is giving off signals that he still cares just because you don’t want to face the fact that it’s really over. If you’re confused about what he’s truly feeling for you, there are some signs your ex boyfriend still loves you that will help you determine exactly what’s going on in his heart.

One of the signs your ex boyfriend still loves you is how much he wants to be in contact with you. Typically when a man is over a woman he’ll try to create as much distance as he can from her. He’ll stop calling and he won’t email anymore. If your ex is constantly reaching out to you, even if it’s just to say hello, that’s a really good sign. He’s having trouble letting go and that’s probably because he’s still got very strong feelings for you.

If he’s extra curious about what’s going on in your romantic life, he may very well still be in love with you. Most of us have been through a break up that resulted in us feeling relieved and free to move forward. If your ex boyfriend didn’t love you anymore he really wouldn’t care who you were dating or what your new boyfriend was like. If he’s full of questions about any new men in your life, that’s because he’s comparing them to himself. He may be worried that someone is going to take his place in your heart. Wondering about whether or not you’re in love with another man is one of the clear signs your ex boyfriend still loves you.
