Why Would Your Ex Send You Mixed Signals After A Breakup? 6 Reasons You Need To Consider

Why would your ex send you mixed signals after a breakup? When your relationship with someone ends but you're still in contact with them, it can be very difficult to assess exactly what they want from the things they say and do.

Are they still into you? Do they want to get back together? Are they just messing with you? If your ex is currently sending you mixed signals, this article can help you figure out what might be going through their mind.

Here are 6 of the most common reasons your ex might be sending you mixed signals after a breakup.

1.) They are still in love with you and they are testing you to see how you respond because they are unsure if you still have feelings for them. For example, they might flirt with you to see if you flirt back. Then, they may become withdrawn the next time they see you if they didn't get the response they were hoping for.

2.) They still love you, but they were hurt in the relationship, so they're not quite sure if trying to get back together is a good idea or not. Therefore, they may be affectionate and flirty one minute, and the next minute be withdrawn if they feel like they might get hurt again by getting too close.

3.) They are trying to be manipulative to get physical contact and/or sex. For example, your ex might flirt with you to try and seduce you into sleeping with them. If they are successful, then the next day they may be distant because they were only after "ex sex".

4.) They want to "have their cake and eat it too" so to speak. They may be trying to hold on to you while they figure out if you're the person they truly want or not. They may want to see who else is out there, but at the same time they don't want to lose you completely in case they decide you're the person they truly love and want to be with again.

5.) They miss you and feel needy and/or lonely from time to time. After a breakup, it's common for people to feel sad and lonely. If your ex has a weak moment and misses you, then you may find them trying to be more friendly and affectionate toward you. Once some of those emotions fade away, then they may pull away again.

6.) They are simply confused about their own emotions and aren't sure exactly what they want. They are having a difficult time in their own heart and mind figuring out if they should try to repair the relationship or just give up and move on.

Breakups are a time of mixed and ever changing emotions and it can be extremely hard deciphering exactly what your ex is thinking and feeling. It's even harder when they seem to give you mixed signals daily, but by paying close attention to their words and their actions, you'll have a good idea what their true intentions are.
