What does it mean when my crush talks to me about his ex in a bad way. Does it mean he likes me?

[Capnjaques]

He's not over his ex, and if he talks bad about her he'll talk bad about you. Comparing someone to an ex is unhealthy behavior and it's clear he's not mature enough to admit that it just didn't work out and move on. Is he putting all of the blame for it on her and not taking responsibility for his part in it?

[hahahmm]

He did not view it as a serious relationship.

He’s inexperienced

He’s probably trying to hint at you how he wants you to behave (not to act like his ex).

He’s not sure how to choose the right female.

I wouldn't trust a person who talks bad about his ex all the time. I mean there are some really evil people out there and that is different. It would make me wonder how he relates to women in general that he is telling such intimate things to someone else.

If he brought it up without you asking about it?

Then this means he see’s you as a friend

[outside_Toronto]

I think it means he's not over her

He has a big mouth
