Is He Over Her? Part 2

More signs that he may or may not be over her...

You walk into his home and you notice pictures of his dog, his parents and his friends, but no pictures of the ex-girlfriend or ex-wife. This one is a big deal because if he wasn't over her, he'd display pictures without even thinking about why.

The two of you are having a conversation. All of a sudden, he utters her name instead of yours. When he mixes up your name with hers it means he still thinking about her on subconscious level.

 

The two of you are happy to set off on a new adventure every couple of weeks or so. This is a good sign because it means he's ready to create new memories with you.

 

He just compared you to his ex...again. This time, he said she wore her hair down more than you do. Beware of this guy.....he's not over her.

 

You and your boyfriend are out to dinner or spending a day away together. He brings up the fact that he wants to do this again in a couple of months. You're in the clear because he's focused as to where the relationship is headed.

 

If he calls you first to tell you that he got the raise, you are in a good place with your new man. However, if he calls his ex first then you may need to rethink if he's ready to date yet.

 

He's out with his friends, having fun and meeting new people without hesitation. This is a good sign that he's well over his ex.

 

Your guy reacts with strong emotion every time he utters his ex's name. This is a strong indication that he isn't over her because if he was, he wouldn't show any emotion when he mentions her name. 

 

Does he take you to meet his family? In a man's relationship book, taking you to his parent's house is a major step toward him showing the world that he's interested in you and only you.

 

Does he text his ex often during the day? This can point to a guy who's not over her, especially if he tries to hide the text messages from you.

 

One surefire way to tell if your boyfriend is over his ex: he doesn't show any reaction when he finds out she's with someone new.

 

Does he drop her name in what seems like every other conversation the two of you have? This could point to the fact that he's not quite over his ex.

 

Finally ladies, if you have doubts about whether your new guy is over his ex, look to how long ago they broke up. Five to eight months is a proper time frame for single guys to get over their ex. Married guys should take substantially longer...
