It doesn't matter if they are thinking about you. If they are not reaching out then they don't care enough. We are all human so occasionally we will think of our exes and in turn they will think about us too, that's a fact; but if he or she is not making the effort to reach out, then acknowledge the thought and let it go. My ex has been on my mind alot lately. I don't understand why because the relationship was horrible. I keep telling myself, if he is thinking of me as much as I am thinking about him then, he will do something about it. I will not reach out to him because he was not a good boyfriend. He lied and cheated he was manipulating and selfish. So I guess my thoughts will remain as just thoughts.
Ask them. Keep it simple. Weigh up the best possible outcome with the worst. It's probably worth it since you're obviously thinking about them.
Look for sign's and ask around to find out if she has talked about you. This should give you an idea
We'll all remember our ex, they were part of our life. Just like you remember them, they'll remember you.

I was once told to never seek an answer for something you can't really find an answer for. If your're wondering if your ex is thinking about you then wouldn't he have texted or called you? I have been through that same road for months wondering if my ex is thinking about me or not. However, I came to the realization that I shouldn't be wasting my time on someone who finds it so hard to let his ego down to text me if I am on his mind. My best tip for you is to learn to love yousrelf and use that time to think about becoming a better version of yourself. Make him think about you for a change!
Most of the time obsessing over your ex isn't a good thing. It holds you back more than it pushes you forward. Instead of wondering if they're thinking of you, why don't you direct your energy elsewhere?
You can't know that unless they tell you for sure. If he doesn't try and communicate with you then maybe hes moved on or hes thinking of a way to talk to you about how he feels.
It is normal after a relationship to think about our former partner. This is part of the process through which we heal and grow. I wouldn’t be surprised if your ex was thinking about you, what really matters though is that due to your incompatibilities that you are not together, and it is important to understand that even though we have feelings for someone that they aren’t necessarily right for us and being with them isn’t always a healthy decision .

You can never really tell for sure but if you are thinking of him and you think he might feel the same then you could try talking to him.
Worry about yourself, you should think about you, you should make yourself happy. You do not depend on anyone elses approval or affection
It is when she is trying to make you understand that she is not in love with you any more but asking her friends about you. And she messages you to know how are you and pretends to show her love.

Usually by social media because when u post thing's and they get notified by it. If they take the time to look at it. Then bingo . they are thinking about u. Because me and my ex girlfriend broke up a week ago and after the break up she went cold she told me to lose her number but when i would call she would answer. One night i called her and she sounded as if she'd been crying so i asked if she was ok she said yea. And i asked ehat she was up to she said just chilling. Then so i said ok well i was just checking up on u and it sounds like u don't want to talk to me. So i hung up. And after that day. I no such contact with her. Even when in person dont say or do anything. But if she talks to u first then u can't be a jerk and ignore her. Say hi, and how he or she is doing. Then u keep it moving. And when they see that your not the same person that they dumped they're gonna be like. Wow that's tim?. He changed he doesn't get angry or emotional and he's positive on social media. Always show your doing good and happy even when your not. And give them time and space to miss u. Use the no contact rule it truly work's. If they dumped u. Let them make the first move to initiate contact. And if u did the dumping make sure u work on yourself, focuse on your goals and achieve them. And if u still want your ex back then go for it. And trust me if your ex can look at what u post on social media or text u back, then yes they are thinking of u. If they dumped u, better yourself, have fun and enjoy your life and use no contact. And watch they will miss u like crazy and then reach out to u. But if u constantly are available and around how do u expect them to miss u. If your always there. Follow these steps.

I believe that you should be thinking about yourself presently and doing what you need to be doing to take care of you.
Sometimes you won't know unless you speak to them or go on their social media and they say directly they are missing you. (You don't want to make the assumption that whatever they post via social media is always about you, won't really make either of you happy if it goes south). But they're an ex for a reason, things didn't work out and that's okay, you will find someone better for you and you won't think about them like this or any way. You'll be okay, good luck.
I don't know how you would fully know whether or not an ex is thinking about you. I hope none of mine are thinking about me... I mean that's why they are exes, am I right? lol

If they are truly thinking about you, they'll get in touch sooner or later. They will get to a point where they have to get in touch if they are thinking about you often.
You don’t. I have this issue all of the time, and it’s been 6 years for me! I’m so sorry you are feeling bad about this. Things will get better. Just relax and know you are a great person and you’ll find someone special. Keep yourself busy, get out and have some fun. Then you won’t think about it so much. Remember to take care of yourself and don’t let the depression and anxiety get ok top of you. It’s all mind over matter. They say the best revenge is doing well. Then you’ll have the upper hand and you’ll be with someone much better.
You can never truly tell what someone is thinking, but if the ex is reaching out for contact, you can be assured that they have thought enough about you to actually contact you.
The more you do not know about your ex, the better. You guys broke up for a reason. Don’t let him/her get the better of you by thinking if they think about you or not.
Move on, try better things in life, enjoy opportunities, and try living a little harder everyday. Your ex is nothing as essentially important.

You can't. You aren't a mind reader. So you stop thinking about your ex...that will work much better.

He would mostly think about you when he's is lonely or bored. Then he starts to miss you and everything you guys been through.

If you were in a meaningful relationship, then I can guarantee that your ex is not quite over you and you are still thought about. But, it also depends on how long you have been broken up. If you two have been separated for a while (a year or more) then chances are they might have moved on.
The reality is that you do not know whether your ex is thinking of you. What you should be wondering is whether you may still have feelings for your ex. If you still care whether your ex is thinking of you then you are not over them.
life would make such circumstances that you will get to know. But if he does not think about you this should not hurt you . you should try to move on
You can't know that. I know you might want to know that, but we can only control our thoughts, and the only way to know if he's thinking abiut is if he tells you that.

Because his reactions about you, if he talks to you, and if he post things about you or relationed with you
Since he is your ex and you're wondering if he's thinking about you it must mean that you miss him. The only way to really KNOW if someone is thinking about you is if they let you know they're thinking about you. If they aren't letting you know that they're thinking about you, you have the option of assuming either they are NOT thinking of you or that they ARE thinking of you. I always choose to think that they ARE thinking about me with very loving thoughts. It makes me happy and let's me move on to other thoughts. So the bottom line is that we cannot know for sure if someone is thinking about us but we can always assume that they are if it makes us happy .
Do you really have to think of it... let your ex be ex.. don't haper her/him in your present... live in present..shut the past!

The reality is, you don't know. It is possible, because thinking about your ex is normal. Consider the question what does it mean to you if there are thinking about you?
You don't unless they bring it up with you and that's okay, the best thing to do is move on healthily
