Exes getting back together is not a rare occurrence.
But sometimes it is hard to tell whether your ex wants you back.
The reason? They are confused and don’t know what they want, either.
Luckily, there are 13 signs that your ex wants you back!
1) They want to talk about nice memories you have together
One sign that your ex wants you back is when they walk down memory lane with you a lot.
Your ex probably wants to talk about the good times we had together.
They may want to reminisce about the time you went out, the time you laughed, or even the time you danced.
If your ex is confused and doesn’t know what they want, walking down memory lane like this can be their sign of trying to show you that they are torn between being with you again or moving on.
They want to be with you again but aren’t sure if they should.
This could be because they are still in love with you, but also don’t know if it’s the right time for a relationship.
They may want to give you another chance, but they aren’t sure if it would work out.
This can be a sign that your ex is confused about what they want, and that there’s a little uncertainty in their mind about whether or not a relationship will work out between them and you.
They may also be afraid of being hurt again so they don’t want to make any quick decisions.
The thing is, you don’t have to be afraid of being hurt in relationships if you know one secret:
When you learn to trust yourself and tap into the incredible pool of personal power within you, you’ll find what you’ve been searching for all along.
You see, we all have an amazing amount of potential. We’re all capable of achieving more than we realize. Happiness is within reach, we just look for it in all the wrong places.
And this has a knock-on effect on everything else in our lives, including our relationships.
I learned this from the shaman Rudá Iandê. He’s helped thousands of people restore balance to their lives, discover their personal power, and live life with passion at the heart of everything they do.
He uses a unique approach that combines ancient shamanic techniques with an effective modern-day twist.
In his excellent free video, Rudá explains how you can build the life and relationships you’ve always wanted, simply by following a few of his techniques.
So if you’re ready to take the plunge and live the life you know you deserve, check out his genuine advice below.

2) They stalk your social media
Your ex may be following your social media accounts in an attempt to find out more about you.
That’s a big sign that they want you back but are still confused about what they want.
This could include but is not limited to, checking your website and online profiles, reading your emails, and even contacting you through Facebook Messenger.
They might also be reaching out to you in an effort to start a conversation or make amends.
This may also be a sign that your ex is confused about what they want, and that there’s a little uncertainty in their mind about whether or not a relationship will work out between them and you.
One thing you can be absolutely certain about: when they stalk your social media profiles, they definitely haven’t moved on yet.
3) They call you when they’re drunk
If your ex calls you while you’re drunk, it’s a sign that they want to talk to you.
This is a hallmark sign of them wanting you back.
They might be trying to apologize or make amends.
You see, calling someone drunk says a lot about your subconscious feelings. When you’re drunk, you do the things you’d otherwise be afraid of doing.
So, what does that mean for you?
Well, if your ex calls you drunk they definitely still have feelings for you and want you back.
Maybe they’re just too shy to call you when they are sober, who knows?
4) They talk to you a lot
Your ex may be trying to get back in touch with you as a way to apologize and make things right.
If your ex is talking to you a lot, it’s likely that they are confused but a part of them really wants you back in their life.
This can be a difficult situation, so it’s important to watch out for yourself here.
Don’t get your hopes up too quickly and try to figure out why they are reaching out to you in the first place.
However, if they talk to you a lot, chances are pretty good that they miss you and want you back.
Perhaps they haven’t admitted it to you yet, but people usually don’t talk to their exes a lot unless they still have feelings for them.
On that note, be prepared for them to ignore you:
5) After talking to you a lot, they ignore you for a while
Another sign that your ex wants you back but is confused is when, after talking to you a lot, they ignore you for a while.
You see, after talking, your ex may start to act like they don’t care about you.
They might stop talking to you altogether.
Think about it: they are confused about their feelings, so after enjoying talking to you so much, they panic and try to ignore you.
They just don’t know what they want!
You can try approaching them directly and asking them what their thoughts are on the situation.
If they don’t want to talk to you, that’s good!
But if they’re still avoiding you, it might be best for you to give them space and let them figure their emotions out on their own.
The thing is, having feelings for someone you feel like you’re not supposed to have feelings for is always a tricky situation.
It’s a tricky situation because it can be really hard to know how to tell the difference between being attracted to someone and wanting them, especially when it comes to an ex.
This situation can really mess with your emotions, so it’s important to watch out for yourself.
When it comes to this situation, there is something you can do to feel better.
And it’s as simple as taking a breath.
When I was struggling the most in life, I was introduced to an incredible free breathwork video created by the shaman, Rudá Iandê.
With a focus on dissolving stress and boosting inner peace, it was hard to resist giving it a go.
But with the turbulence of emotions I was facing and the pain of heartbreak, I didn’t have high hopes. I had little self-esteem and confidence? Out of the window.
So what made this breathwork video so effective?
Well, it comes down to the man behind it all. Rudá created these unique flows using a combination of ancient shamanic techniques and healing breathwork sequences.
He’s spent years developing them to help people find their inner peace.
So, if you feel a disconnect with yourself due to your ex playing hot and cold, I’d recommend checking out Rudá’s free breathwork video.
He’ll give you the tools to start injecting peace and confidence back into your life, from the very first breathwork exercise.
Here’s a link to the free video again.
6) They moved on super quickly with someone else
If your ex moves on so quickly after leaving you, it’s likely that they actually still want you back.
This can be a confusing and frustrating experience for both of you.
Hear me out:
They immediately jumped into a new relationship in order to a) make you jealous and b) avoid the pain and heartache that accepting your breakup brings with it.
People don’t do this in order to make you mad or to hurt you.
They do it because they’re confused and scared, and they don’t know what to do.
Maybe they’re afraid that if they tell you that they still want you, the pain of losing you will be too much for them to bear.
They’re afraid that if you find out about their feelings, the breakup will hurt even more than it already is.
But here’s the thing: accepting your breakup doesn’t mean that there’s no hope left for them.
It just means that they know that there’s no point in wasting any more time on someone they don’t really care about.
You probably know a few of these people, they jump from relationship to relationship in an attempt to avoid being on their own for a while.
It is so important to spend some time with yourself to figure out who you are and what you need.
So, if your ex immediately jumped into a new relationship, they might actually just be confused about their feelings for you.
7) They keep asking about your life
Since your breakup, your ex has been asking a lot of questions about your life.
Will you be moving on? Will you be seeing other people? Do you have any ideas about what’s going on?
Does that sound familiar?
Well, this is a huge sign that your ex still wants you back.
The truth is, an ex who has moved on is usually not very interested in your life. Especially when it comes to questions like whether or not you’re dating again.
It’s important to remember that the only reason your ex keeps asking you about your life is that they want to make sure that you’re okay.
They ask because they care, and they want to make sure that you’re still available.
This can be hard to understand, but it’s important to know that this is something that an ex who has moved on would usually not do.
So, if they ask you about your life, it might just mean that they really want you back.
8) Mutual friends say they talk about you a lot
Another sign your ex really wants you back is when mutual friends say that your ex talks about you a lot.
You see, give me one proper reason your ex would be constantly talking about you with other people if it wasn’t for them wanting you back?
The thing is when other people are already involved and notice, then the signs couldn’t be more clear: your ex wants you back!
9) They lost their spark ever since the breakup
The next huge sign that your ex wants you back is when they haven’t seemed happy or full of passion ever since the breakup.
They’re not smiling, they look sad and they seem down.
This is probably the biggest sign that your ex wants you back ever since the breakup.
Think about it: if it’s so noticeable how bad they’ve been feeling ever since you haven’t been in their life anymore, they know it, too.
They completely understand that their life was better with you in it, and they’re not happy about it.
They know how important you were in their life, and this is why they still want you back.
You see, your happiness shouldn’t depend on another person.
However, sometimes a person just makes life so much better, and not having them there anymore makes you appreciate how much joy they brought to your existence.
This is when you know you shouldn’t let go of someone.
It’s only when you know how much they mean to you, and how much they made your life better that you realize you want them back.
So, try to see how your ex seems to you. If they look kind of lost ever since breaking up, chances are good they want you back in their life.
10) They are jealous when you date someone new
Jealousy is a natural reaction to any change in your life. But when you date someone new, it can be difficult for your ex to understand.
It’s important to remember that your ex does not have any say in your dating life anymore.
However, when they get jealous of you seeing other people, it’s a huge sign that they want you back.
Maybe they didn’t realize they wanted you back but seeing you with someone else just triggered something inside them.
They realized that they don’t want you to be with anyone but them.
They’re starting to realize that you’re the one for them, and they want you back.
When your ex is happy about you being with someone else, it’s a clear sign that they want you back.
They might even try to get you back by telling you that they don’t want you to be with anyone but them.
This is because they realized how much you mean to them, and how much your relationship meant to them.
If that’s the case for you, you should focus on the future and make decisions that will benefit both of you.
11) They’re trying to get you back
The most obvious sign that your ex wants you back is when they start to try to get you back.
If they really want you back, they will even do things that seem desperate like calling or texting you that they miss you.
They might even send flowers or a gift, or ask if they could see you again.
This is because they realize how much they mean to each other, and how much their relationship meant to them. And this is why they want it back.
12) They keep in touch with your friends and family
Another sign that your ex wants you back is when they keep in touch with your friends and family.
This is because they are still holding on to aspects of your relationship because they don’t want to let it go just yet.
They’re not trying to hurt you or make your life difficult, they just want to be close to you.
They don’t want to lose you and they’re trying everything they can think of to get you back.
13) You see them change in a good way
The next sign that your ex wants you back is when they change for the better.
This could be anything from them becoming more responsible to them making you feel special.
They realize that they don’t want to lose you and they’re trying everything they can think of to get you back.
You see them change in a good way, and this is because they want to be with you again.
They realize that they can’t live without you, and they want to be with you again.
So, without really realizing it, they are making changes to become better versions of themselves.
Oftentimes, they will work on the issues that have led to the breakup in the first place!
Should you take them back?
So, the big question that remains is:
The answer to this question depends on your situation, and whether you think it’s worth it.
If you’re single, and you think that your ex is really sorry for what they did and a new relationship with them could be good, then there’s no reason not to take them back.
But if you’re in a really good place on your own and feel like being with them would set you back, then I would suggest that you don’t take your ex back.
You don’t want to put yourself through all the drama of getting back together again.
The thing is, instead of waiting to find out whether your ex wants you back, focus on yourself!
Focus on all the great things that you have going, and don’t worry about what your ex wants.
If the time comes and you’re meant to be together, you will be.
In the meantime, focus on yourself!
Now let’s think about your spiritual journey:
Which practices are genuinely pushing you forward, and which are holding you back?
Unfortunately, many of us unknowingly fall into the trap of toxic spirituality.
As you can imagine, this can be extremely harmful. I learned this when I watched this incredible free video created by the shaman Rudá Iandé.
He recognized the toxic habits he’d picked up at the start of his journey, and now with over 30 years of experience in all things spiritual, he’s helping guide others away from toxic spirituality.

But why should you trust his advice? What makes him different from the rest of the gurus and experts out there?
Well, for one, Rudá isn’t interested in selling you his version of spirituality. All he aims to do is put you at the center of your world and back in control of your journey.
Secondly, Rudá has included a few powerful yet simple exercises in the video that’ll help you reconnect with yourself and your spirituality. Again, exercises that put the focus on you.
So if you’re ready to bust the toxic spiritual myths you’ve bought for the truth and genuinely connect with your spiritual being, check out his incredible free video here.
