Do you ever wonder if your girlfriend’s still in love with her ex?

A relationship doesn’t just end like that. So how do you know she is still hung up on her ex?

There are warning signs from the get-go.  Once we learn to trust our gut more, we’ll start listening more carefully instead of trying to make something work out.

So what signs should be looking for?

He cheated on her?

Had he not cheated on her there’s a good chance they’d have still been together. She might be angry and resentful, but the chances are there are still pangs of love for her hanging around.

He comes up in conversation

You might think its fine when she mentions her ex in a negative way. When she’s ranting and raving about what a whack person he is, that’s a sign she’s over her isn’t it?

Your girlfriend talks about her ex boyfriend’s memories like they’re still fresh in her head. She remembers him fondly.

She compares

Does she ever compare you to her ex boyfriend, and show you in negative light? Of course, she may do this only when she’s pissed off with you. But yet, if your girlfriend compares you to her ex for the silliest reasons, or when you’re late or forget to do something, it only means she’s mentally evaluating who’s the better boyfriend.

But seriously, if she has no thoughts of ever dumping you and getting back with her ex, why the comparisons in the first place, right?!

She’s in touch with him

Exes stay as exes for a reason. Of course, it is possible for exes to stay friends. If your girlfriend is still friends with her ex, and stays connected to him in a more than just an old friend kind of way, you do have grounds to worry. And you’re definitely allowed to go into panic mode if she chats with him over Facebook every day or texts him often.
