18 Signs He Is Not Over His Ex… He Still Thinks About Her!

By- Shreya Sharma

This question “whether he is over her ex or not?” bothers many of us. When we date someone new, it can be hard to deal with their ex’s stories, especially if they are not over them because they will eventually bring her in whatever conversation you have. And when you get to know that he is still not over his ex, it is difficult to handle because you wonder what your value in his life is. When a boy falls in love, it is hard for them to get over it, and thus they should not jump into another relationship because it will eventually hurt the feelings of the other person involved. Here are 18 signs he is not over his ex and still thinks about her.

1. He keeps on talking about her

They start their conversation with their ex and ends with her only. They talk about how things ‘used to’ be and sometimes even compares you with her.

2. He is still in contact with her people

He is still considered a part of her family or her friend’s group. He is considered an ‘ex’ but he still hang out with them.

3. They still hang out

Sometimes, people end up being friends with their ex. It is fine if they are still friends and once in a while meet over a coffee, but if he chooses to hang out with her over you, then he is still not over her.

4. He always do favors for her

He does favors for you too, but he is overly willing to do favors for her. He disappears to do something for her. And she is happy to take him away with her.

5. They are together on social media

If they are together on social media, tagging each other in pictures constantly, posting pictures with each other and posting comments, then she is on his mind as well.

6. He sometimes uses present tense while talking about their relationship

Sometimes, his ‘used to’ stories become real time stories. If his past starts to come back to haunt you, then it is not a great sign.

7. He always attends her calls

No matter what, he will take a phone call from her. He will not mind even if you are in the middle of your make out session, he will just stop things to answer her phone call.

8. He has her number on his phone

If he could not gather the courage to delete her number or stop texting or calling her, this is one sign that he is still hung up on her. Confront him to know the truth.

9. “In relationship’ status

People change their relationship status on Facebook as and when they get and get out of a relationship. If it still shows ‘in relationship’ with her, then you need to confront him to know if you are not being cheated on.

10. He still gets jealous over her

If your boyfriend still gets jealous over the things his ex does, but not so much over the things you do, then this could be one possible sign that he is still in love with her. We get jealous over things only when we are in love with someone.

11. He hides things and stories from you

Being honest and open in your relationship is important, no matter what. You need not to hide things from your partner, but if your partner is hiding things from you, it is sign that it might have something to do with her.

12. There was no healing time after his breakup

You need to know how much time has passed since the two of them have broken up because sure you do not want to be his rebound girl. If he has not allowed himself the time to heal before jumping into another relationship, there are chances that he is still not over his ex.

13. He still gets emotional while talking about his past

If a guy is over his ex, he will not get too emotional while talking about her. If you find that he still get emotional while talking about his past or cannot manage to talk about her ex, then he is still hung over her.

14. He still has her gifts

If they were together for a long time, he is bound to have the gifts she gave to him. But instead of keeping them close to his heart, he should do his best to get rid of them in order to get over her.

15. He still has her pictures on his phone

He is not over her, if he still has an album of her pictures in his phone or uses their photo as his phone wallpaper. If he still has screenshots of their flirty conversations they used to have, you should better run.

16. It feels like a competition

He should make you feel special, instead of comparing you with his ex and expecting you to act like her. He is not over her, if your feel you are in a competition and you are not good for him.

17. He is not happy for her

If she enters in a relationship and your man in not happy, he is jealous and claims that she deserves better, you need to be careful.

18. He calls you with wrong name

If he accidentally calls you by her name, he is still not over her. If it happens once, it is ok. But if it happens again and again, it is better to call things off.
