This is a tricky question that doesn’t have a straight yes or no answer. It depends on what you see of his actions and what he says and how you interpret them.

Of course, you can’t observe all their actions and reactions when you’re around. You have no eyes behind your back. So ask a close and trusted friend to do this for you.

Get a friend’s observation on how he reacts every time he sees you. Does he seem happy to see you in his immediate vicinity? Does your presence bring a smile to their lips and a sparkle in their eyes? Do you react enthusiastically to his presence? Is he/she always close to where you are? Does my ex still like me? If your friend’s honest answers to these questions are yes, then your ex still likes you and he is waiting for a chance to reconcile with you.

When you talk to him/her, does he/she look you in the eye? Are her conversations with you spontaneous and light? Does your ex try to reassure you when you talk to him/her? Does he make you laugh? Can you feel the sincerity of her when your ex talks to you? If your ex shows sincerity and genuine concern in your light talks, he is treading carefully in the new relationship so that he can build a deeper relationship with you again.

Ask your friends, is he/she dating other girls/boys? Is he looking for the opportunity to have a new relationship? If your ex isn’t, chances are he still has a crush on you and is weighing his chances to win you back.

These are sure signs that your ex still likes you. His friend’s observations must be honest, accurate and objective. It’s better if a third party can give you an unbiased answer to your question: Does my ex still like me?
