Things You Should Know
- Your ex may try to reconnect with you, establishing contact and catching you up to speed on their life since the breakup. They may even ask you to hang out.
- They may tell you they want to be friends once more and even turn to you for help and personal advice to show you that you’re important to them.
- When you need help, your ex will make themselves extremely available to you. It’s their way of showing you that you’re still a priority to them.

Tips
- The more of these signs they exhibit, the more likely it is that your ex is waiting for you. If you only spot one or two, it’s also possible they’re just trying to be friendly. Remember to be careful and talk to your ex before jumping to conclusions either way.Thanks
- Some couples get back together 1 to 3 months after their breakup, while others take a bit longer. Generally, however, most couples that reunite do so within 6 months of breaking up.Thanks
- At the end of the day, if you decide that you want to reunite with your ex, the best way to handle the situation is to be honest and upfront about your intentions. Ask them out for a drink or to hang out casually, and let them know you’re interested in them romantically.Thanks
