“I really wish I knew if he loves me and wants me back .” That was something that I said frequently when I was hoping for another chance with my ex, and I know that many women share that same sentiment. It's hard to know exactly what your ex is feeling since you two are no longer as close as you once were. If your instinct is telling you that he's still got lingering feelings for you, there are ways to determine whether that's fact or not. There are some signs in a man's behavior that indicate that he's still very much in love. If you notice any of these in your ex, it will help you to see what he feels and whether there's a chance for the two of you to get back together again.

Whenever you're thinking to yourself, I wonder if he loves me and wants me back , think about how often he's reaching out to you. Whenever a relationship ends and the couple welcomes it, they tend to go their separate ways. They don't hold onto each other's numbers and they aren't meeting for coffee or lunch. They move forward with their lives. If your ex boyfriend calls you frequently under the guise that he just wants to see how you are, that's a great sign. It's also very telling if your ex asks you to meet him just to hang out sometimes. He wants to be around you and he still very much wants to be in contact with you. That's a clear signal that he hasn't let go of you in his heart yet.

If he frequently brings up the past and the things he did wrong, he likely wants another chance with you. It's very easy to tell when a man is feeling a deep sense of regret about the past. If you can see that he genuinely wishes he would have handled things differently during the time you two were still together romantically, that's a great sign that he wishes for another chance with you.

Also, don't overlook the significance in his body language. If you find him staring at you longingly, or if he wants to always sit close to you, those are both strong signs of what's going on in his heart. You can tell a great deal about what a man feels by the way he looks at you. If his gaze is focused solely on you when you two are talking, that's very promising. He's invested in what you're saying and clearly isn't allowing any distractions to get in his way. Once you start noticing these things in your ex, you can begin to entertain the idea of the two of you getting back together .
