8 sure signs that your guy still loves his ex

Hooking up with a guy who has recently had a breakup is a tough stretch to walk on. This is because at times the guy could just be using you as a rebound, a message to his ex that he has moved on. While some guys move on naturally without much fuss, others are still hang on their exes.

Dating this kind of ‘i still love my ex’ guys may give you a rocky relationship and the easiest way out is to run away very fast before you get trapped in the world of past relationships.

Here are ways you can tell if your guy is still in love with his ex;

He drunk dials her

Whenever your guy is drunk, he ends up calling or texting the girl he swore to have ditched. As innocent as his drunk self-sounds, this act indicates that she is the first to cross his mind when he is not thinking straight.

He religiously stalks her on social media

It is normal for exes to still be friends on social media platforms. It, however, becomes something else when your guy likes and comments on every picture his ex posts. If he keeps tabs on all her affairs, he definitely feels left out in them.

He adores her souvenirs

Your guy adores the coffee mug his ex gave him for their first anniversary. He wears the t-shirt she brought him to almost all evening outs you go. As much as they are good, his love for them only stands for how much he wishes she was around.

They talk once in a while

Although your guy admits that she was a bad person, he keeps talking to her now and then. He calls or texts her to ask about random stuff that you don’t approve of. If this carries on, chances are they will rehook up and leave you out in the open.

He makes emotional statements about her

Whether positive or negative, your guy shouldn't keep making statements about his ex. It is normal for exes to talk about their past bitterly, but if he makes it his everyday talk, just pack and leave. The more he talks about her, the more he realizes he needs her.

He tries so hard to prove he has moved on

While taking you out to where his ex hangs out may seem romantic, it may also be his attempt to make her see what she lost. He may be trying so hard to show his relevance in the dating field by flaunting you to his ex so she may get jealous and reconsider moving back to him.

He compares you to her, all the time

Innocent comments like ‘you don't cook as well as my ex’ may seem harmless. However, the moment that your guy starts comparing you to the girl he broke up with, you need to consider your role in the whole relationship. You might not win a game where he knows so much about her than he does of you.

He hangs out with her friends and family

It is not easy for one to change friends. But when these friends are relatives and mutual friends of your guy’s ex, you need to be worried. Hanging out with them shows he has good memories of them that he values. He does not fear hanging out with them in fear of bumping into her. Doing this means he is looking for chances to see her more often.

As much as these signs do not work for every relationship, being on the lookout for them will save you a bigger heartache when he finally decides to live in the past.
