15 Reasons Your Ex Still Texts & Stays in Touch with You

If you’re getting random texts here and there asking about your day and making small talk in general, then your ex is probably texting you because they still have feelings for you and need to talk to you.

#7 They want to win you back.

This goes hand in hand with the previous reason. They could be texting you to spark up a conversation that may lead to them trying to win you back. This reason can be blatantly obvious because they’ll ask you out on dates and compliment you like crazy.

#8 They want to annoy you.

If you dumped this ex, they could be texting you just to spite you. They could be really upset, angry, and frustrated with your decision to end things and want to annoy you with their babble as much as possible.

#9 For reassurance.

If you ended on good terms with your ex, there’s a good chance they’re going to text you for some positive reassurance in their life sometimes. If the two of you are still friends, they could text to ask you advice, reassure themselves if their ego has been shot, or just to get your opinion on certain things.

#10 They have problems letting go.

Some people have a lot of issues with accepting things are over. They have problems with letting someone important to them go and are trying to hold on for dear life.
