Is he still hooked on his ex?
If you have a feeling your new guy’s still hot for his former flame, find out for sure with these giveaways.
He bitches about her. Ironically, while putting his ex down and talking to you through all of her flaws may seem like a sign he’s over her, it actually indicated that your new dude is probably still riding the rebound roller coaster. Where there’s anger, there are usually unresolved feelings.. maybe even love.
He has no clue what went wrong. When the subject of how your new guy and his last girlfriend split comes up, try asking “So what actually happened with you guys?” If your new squeeze has zero idea or blurts out something like “She was totally crazy” without acknowledging his own role in the breakup, then he may not have made peace with the end of that union.
He talks about your future. No matter how much we wish this were healthy guy behavior, it isn’t in the very early days, a man who’s in a rush to get serious—for instance, he busts out the L word or wants to make plans for way down the track—could be trying to re-create the circumstances of his last relationship to avoid having to get over it the hard way: alone.
