When you go no contact with your ex-boyfriend, you will be looking for signs he misses you during no contact. And in this post, I will be sharing some of those signs with you, what he is thinking during no contact, and how to know if someone misses you without contact.

What is the no-contact rule?

The no-contact rule is a period when you decide not to call your ex after the breakup, either to make them miss you or to help you recover from the breakup. It is one of the ways to make your ex miss you and the ways to get back with your ex if you still want them back.

The no-contact rule is powerful because it makes your ex miss a lot about you. It is believed that when lovers stay apart, their love wax stronger because “absence makes the heart grow fonder,” says Sextus Propertius, a Roman Poet.

When you go no contact with an ex, you are essentially saying that you don’t want to communicate with them anymore. This can be a very powerful way to get your ex to realize that you are serious about moving on. By cutting off communication, you are forcing your ex to face the reality that the relationship is over.

Although it is not easy to predict what goes on in a guy’s mind during no contact, there are signs that tell a guy misses you after some months of not communicating with him. And in this post, I shall reveal certain things about the male mind during no contact.

Below are the signs that tell your ex-boyfriend misses you during the no-contact period.
