Today we'll show you exactly how to decipher the mixed signals you might be getting from your ex.
Let's get started.
"Why is my ex sending me mixed signals?"
Your ex may be sending you mixed signals because they are experiencing confusion about how to handle the breakup. They are not yet sure how they feel exactly and will keep their romantic options with you open in case they decide to come back.
"Why is my ex sometimes hot and sometimes cold with me?"
What tends to happen during those "hot" moments with your ex is that he/she is stuck in a period of intense nostalgia and often communicates with you in this positive way because of it.
However, after a day or two passes and this nostalgia wears off, he/she is not seeing that powerful memory or moment in the same way and the allure somehow fades.
"Why is he/she angry with me when he/she broke up with me?"
Instead of owning the fact that the breakup hurts more than expected, he/she decides to cope with the pain by blaming the source of the pain, you.
"Why did my ex disappear for months and now he's flirting with me?"
The key to understanding this mixed signal lies in your ex's avoidant nature.
In other words, your ex won't start to really miss you or have that nostalgic longing until enough time has passed that he/she thinks you've forgotten him/her.
"Why does my ex say we'll be friends, but treat me like a romantic partner?"
There are two possible explanations that make sense for this.
1. Your ex wants to keep you "on the hook" while he/she explores other options;
2. Your ex believes that getting away from you is important, but subconsciously he/she can't stop being attracted to you.
"Why did my ex tell me he wasn't ready for a relationship, but then he hooked up with someone else?"
If your ex tells you they're not ready for a relationship during the throes of a breakup, what they're really saying is that they think they can find someone better than you. Sorry!
