- Your ex might return if they unblock your number and keep an eye on you with social media. They may also try to contact you again.
- Once you’re talking again, your ex might reminisce about the past, compliment you, ask to meet in person, or apologize for their mistakes.

About This Article
A breakup can be devastating, but it doesn’t always mean the relationship is over for good. If your ex doesn’t cut off contact after the breakup, it’s possible that they’re not quite ready to let go. If you find out they’re still mourning the relationship and missing you for a long time after you part ways, that might also be a sign that they’ll try to patch things up. They might reach out to you to share memories, apologize for their part in the breakup, or just say “hi”. If you’re hoping things could work out, ask them what’s up. You might both feel better after you have a talk.
