Things may have gone pear-shaped with your ex, but you are suspecting that he or she may still harbor romantic feelings for you.
How do you know for sure? Here are four ways to know if your ex still cares about you.
You have not been totally cut-off - If your ex still keeps the lines of communication open, then there is a good chance that he or she is still open to anything that could develop between the two of you.
If you are both single, then this is a very good sign.
If your ex is already married, however, then the chance could be very slim.
This is because your ex may only be interested in being friends with you.
Your ex is being thoughtful - Asking you out for coffee or giving you trinkets or small gifts when there is no occasion is a sure sign that your ex is still into you.
It is your ex's way of showing that you cross their minds in the most random of times and it's an expression of their feelings.
Your ex becomes jealous - When you tell stories about your prospective new love or the people you have been dating, it is worth checking your ex's reaction.
If your ex suddenly turns quiet, changes the subject, over-indulging you or becomes sarcastic, then your ex may be showing a hint of jealousy.
If you want to get back together, be careful in making your ex too jealous.
Otherwise, he or she may get turned off completely.
When in need, your ex is there first - One way to know for sure if your ex still cares, is when you run into sticky situations and your ex is the first person to your rescue.
It certainly shows his or her concern for your well-being.
