Cracking the Code: 5 signs your ex secretly wants you back

Breakups are tough. You think it’s over, but then you get that text. Or they randomly “like” an old photo of you on Instagram.

Suddenly, you’re left wondering: Do they miss me? Do they want me back?

I’ve been there. More than once. It’s confusing, right?

So, if you’re in that place of questioning whether your ex secretly wants you back, here’s what I’ve learned. I’ll keep it simple and share five key signs to watch for, based on my own experiences.

1. They Keep Finding Ways to Contact You

Here’s the thing.

If someone’s really done, they don’t keep finding reasons to reach out.

I remember when I broke up with an ex a while back.

At first, it was radio silence. I thought, “Okay, it’s over.”

But then out of nowhere, she sent me a message.

Not just any message — a casual “Hey, I saw this and thought of you.”

It didn’t stop there. She kept doing it.

Funny memes, random thoughts, even asking how my mom was doing (which she hadn’t asked about in months).
