Breaking up with your ex is never a smiling experience. Breakup is hard. And only those who have experienced it can tell how painful it is to end a relationship with someone you love.
Is your relationship really over or your ex is trying to pull your legs? If your relationship isn’t over that means your ex is pretending to be over you and here are signs to look out for.
Why does ex pretend to be over you?
Your ex may pretend to be over you if he or she is trying to know if you really love them and want them to return. Pretending to be over someone is one of the ways to test their love for you.
Signs your ex is pretending to be over you
1. They’re still contacting you
One major sign your ex is pretending to be over you is that they still contact you. If the relationship is really over, your ex would have moved on without calling you again. This is to enable them completely forget about you. But if they’re still getting in touch with you, they are still interested in the relationship. Maybe they’re trying to know how you will feel if they break up with you or if you truly love them.
