Holding on to previous romantic attachments creates feelings of distrust and can stymie an otherwise promising relationship. So are you wondering if your honey’s heart still rests in the hands of a past love? There’s no way to know for sure without talking to your partner about your concerns. But how do you know when you need to have that talk? Here are 10 signs that say your partner still thinks about his ex-girlfriend
1. He still talks about his ex with love and enthusiasm
This is the basic way to know if your partner still has feelings for his ex-girlfriend is by observing the way he talk about her. If the love still exists and he thinks about his ex-partner in a romantic way, he will speak of her with so much love and enthusiasm. Everything he says will only reflect his feelings for her.
2. He still defends his ex-girlfriend
There’s a huge difference between being respectable and polite about one’s ex and defending him or her in front of their present partner. Not badmouthing an ex is a choice, but defending the person infront of one’s ex is unfair. He may be telling the truth, but the fact that he has no regard for your feelings is a point of concern.
3. He constantly compares you with his ex
Comparing two people is always problematic and if it’s your partner’s ex that you’re being compared with, then it is time to make a call. Sometimes it can be deliberate, but if your boyfriend is doing it subconsciously then that is an even bigger problem.
4. He dreams about his ex-girlfriend often
Most probably, your partner will refrain from telling you about his dreams concerning his ex-girlfriend. However, if he do talk about it and his ex plays an important part in it, then it is a concerning matter. Dreams play a crucial role in determining how dedicated one is towards someone. If he is still dreaming about his exes then its time you start discussing it with him.
5. He still stalks his ex-girlfriend secretly
Look for any signs that indicate your partner is still stalking his ex-girlfriend on social media or elsewhere. If he has moved on, he wouldn’t be concerned about how his ex-girlfriend is fairing or if she is seeing someone else. So, one of the sure signs that your partner still thinks about his ex is if he is still in contact with her on social media.
6. He keeps bringing up memories from the past
Remembering the past or the memories that were created with an ex is beautiful, unless one pretends to move on and is already in a relationship. Your partner may love you a lot but if he continuously reminisce the old times and talk about the good times spent with his ex-girlfriend, then he really haven’t moved on.
