All people who are in relationships, when they are out of contact with their other half, pine and long for that level of intimacy they had; the companionship and the connection.
Without that connection, they feel lost and alone.
They have come to realize that without that person whom they were used to speaking with every day, that person’s absence and the memories that were made can take up plenty of space in the heart.
When you allow the no-contact and the sadness of being apart from a partner to overshadow all the other normal aspects of your life, it can overwhelm you – it can break your heart.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with missing your boyfriend and wondering how on earth a season will pass without being in physical contact with him.

How to Know if Your Ex Misses You During No Contact

He still wants to know what you are doing with your life even without any contact.
That’s a clear sign that he misses you.
He misses the little talks you had every day and particularly misses your whereabouts; what you are getting up to.
It makes him want to know whether you are miserable or happy without him around.
Deep down he wants to know if there is someone new in your life; he wants to feel secure and for you to know that he is still into you.
2) He is overprotective
If he suddenly gets overprotective of you, you can know that he is missing you.
Maybe you need some help with something and he is offering to help you.
3) He apologizes to you
If he apologizes to you in his texting for anything that he thinks is a mistake, that is a sign that he is missing you.
Say now you are a couple who have actually broken up, even then, he might apologize over and over again, wanting to let you see that he is willing to give you and him another chance.
4) He is still nice to you and your family
When you were together you probably had a lot of contact with your family and his family.
Your boyfriend got to know your family members and even became friends with some of them.
If he is still being nice to you and asking after them and being in contact with them, it is a good sign that he still misses you and your family while you are not in contact, and hopes to be together again soon.
5) He is nice to your friends
If he is still missing you a lot, he will still be impressing your friends and still getting them to like him.
If they are in contact with him, but you are not in physical contact with him, they will probably be letting you know what a great guy he is.
And him being in contact with them also is his way, no doubt, of finding out more about you – a sure sign that he still thinks a lot about you and misses you.
6) He is not so exuberant and is a bit depressed
Men usually don’t like showing off their emotions.
In fact, they try and hide them.
But sometimes a guy, if he misses you so much, can actually feel a bit depressed that the two of you are apart.
Maybe you can get a hint of this by checking out his social media profiles to see if there are posts hinting that not all is going so well for him; how he is missing you like crazy.
Otherwise, there might be some pics of him having a good time; then you won’t be so sure even if he says he is missing you.
But either way, if he seems to be depressed and hurting, he is no doubt thinking a lot about you.
7) You are still getting texts saying how much he misses you
If your boyfriend’s texting has gotten even stronger since you and he are out of contact, that is a good sign that he clearly misses you.
He might be even worried that he might lose you if he doesn’t keep up with texting – he has plenty to say to you and he doesn’t want to lose you.
Often when we can’t be in contact with someone physically, we will try our best to keep things going on social media pages.
We will send posts and pics of us together doing crazy and fun things together.
Thank goodness for social media, because it has made it so easy for you to keep in contact when you can’t be in physical contact, right?
Sometimes, like you, if you are separated from your boyfriend, you might even develop a special kind of code that you send; secret messages to the one you love.
If your boyfriend is doing this, it is obvious that he really is missing you.
9) He might have become even more jealous since he is no longer with you – that’s a good sign
Generally speaking, jealousy isn’t a good emotion to entertain.
But sometimes a little bit of jealousy can keep a relationship going strong and healthy, helping you to feel desired, and competitive.
And if your guy is far away or out of contact with you, you can be sure that he will be showing signs of jealousy about what you are doing on the weekends and who with.
Those are signs that you still impact him and that he is missing you.
And if you have broken up, still, he will be jealous that new guys are showing you interest and you are moving on without him.
10) You can see from your long-distance relationship that he is not dating anyone and staying faithful to you
If you are separated by circumstances or countries, it is not unrealistic to entertain the idea that a man might find a company with other people where women will be…
…and if they make themselves available to him, he might be glad of the company.
But if you can see from his social media pages and by the type of signs above that he is being faithful to you, that is a sure sign that you are still on his mind and that he misses you intently.
If he is not seeing anyone else, he still is carrying a torch for you.
If he is missing you like crazy, he will want to know what you have been up to while you and he are not in contact.
Not only will he text you and ask, but he will check your social medial profile as well to glean as much info about you as possible That’s a sure sign that he is missing you and can’t wait to be back together with you again.
12) He still compliments you a lot
If you post a selfie to him, for instance, you will get a comment back immediately telling you how beautiful you look.
In fact, he tells you how amazing and beautiful you are every day; how fortunate he is to have you in his life.
Those are sure signs that a guy misses you; when he compliments you a lot.
13) He still talks to others about you
He tells you he is missing you.
But you also hear it from his friends and family because he still talks about you when he is around them.
That’s a sure sign that he thinks about you all the time and misses you so much.
Remember, it is not always easy for guys to open up even to their very best friends – they are often used to hiding their feelings and trying to appear in touch and on top of things.
But you might hear through the grapevine how he is missing you so much and can’t wait to see you again.
Awesome!
14) He was and still considers you as his best friend
In a relationship, it’s normal to consider each other as best friends – like soul mates. And that is because you used to spend so much time with each other.
But now that you are apart, you wonder if your boyfriend is missing you because you were his best friend – you are wondering if you still are.
But if he still considers you his best friend, he will be in contact with you, and often!
15) He calls you late at night because he is thinking and dreaming of you still
Nights can be very lonely.
Many people start to overthink things in their life.
But if your guy is still missing you like crazy, he is probably still sending you good night text messages, and he will every now and then want to schedule a late-night call with you to hear you in person and to whisper his love for you.
