How do i know if me and my ex should get back together?...

How can you tell if you're ex really does still want to be with you?

Cause I mean he tells me he misses me and still wants to be with me, and we've talked about the fact that we both still have feelings for eachother.
And we're both single.

But...

it never goes anywhere
Its just like empty words. And im not sure what to do

Ask him to put his money where his mouth is... in other words, let him proove it to you. If he really wants to get back then what is he willing to do? Will he take you out on weekends? Will he send you love poems? Will he call you every day? Most important of all, what is he willing to change to really make it work this time?
