You finally got up the nerve to call your ex boyfriend and he answered. Now, you're probably wondering what it means when your ex boyfriend answers your calls. Could it mean that he still wants you?

Of course, if he didn't like you at all, then he probably would avoid the calls that you've been making him. But that doesn't necessarily mean that he wants to get back together. Learn why he might answer.

5 Reasons Your Ex Boyfriend Answers Calls

1. He wants to be friends. If your ex boyfriend fed you the line about wanting to be "just friends", he could have been telling the truth. Many guys enjoy the company of an ex girlfriend, even if the romantic relationship didn't work out. He may think that you are calling him as a friend and answering the call as such.

2. He thinks he can have sex with you. Unfortunately, some guys are just after one thing. He may know that you are feeling vulnerable after the break up and may think that he can have sex with you one last time. This may be why he's answering the phone.

3. He misses you. It's completely normal to miss an ex after you've broken up, even if you know that the break up was for the best. You spent so much time together that you can feel a real loss when that togetherness is missing. Your ex boyfriend may answer your calls if he misses you, but this doesn't necessarily mean that he wants to get back together with you.

4. He's just being polite. He may not really want to talk to you, but his good manners dictate that he must take your call. If his responses seem somewhat short and it seems like he isn't interested in talking to you, this could be the reason.

5. He wants to get back together with you. In some cases, he really does miss you and want to get back together with you. He may regret the decision to break up and is happy to hear from you. If this is the case, he's probably going to let you know, either in subtle or overt ways.

How to Get Back With Your Boyfriend Honestly

Although you may not ask yourself or realize that you are heartbroken, you may ask yourself this question many times during the day...can I get my ex boyfriend back?

The difference between you or anyone else asking this question may vary. However, with a little determination, guts and knowing what you should do, you probably can.

Have you ever considered just being the nicest person that you can be? This means no criticism, no blaming, and no harboring of hard feelings? People want to be around people who are nice. As an aside think of all the people you have relationships with. Who makes you feel better about yourself once you've left them? That is the definition of "nice".

If you're determined to get your boyfriend back, this is a good first step. No one wants to be reminded of the things they want to forget. So make every meeting you have with your boyfriend, one filled with positive memories. He'll want to be with you more and more. If you don't do this one simple thing, you've lost a battle, not the war, just the battle. But all these can help you lose the war.

We're not talking about trying to be someone you're not. The only sincere person you can be is you, so be the most pleasant you that you can. Pretending will be discovered, so don't pretend. You've got to be yourself. Despite how you got together, or how long you've been together is of no consequence if you're not suited for each other. Everything has to be real or you should wonder if you need to get back together anyways. If, however, the way you are is not suited for the relationship, simply find someone who appreciates who you are.

Often times, we "make a mountain out of a mole hill". Being pleasant helps us focus on the positive, which helps us put the breakup into perspective. You'd be surprised how being nice can make a difference. Relationships are built on truth, self-awareness and kindness. Whatever happened is in the past. You can't change it. When you are back together again, you'll eventually build enough of memories, that any past transgressions will be forgotten.

We sometimes take our good fortune for granted. Pointing this out to your boyfriend is also a good tactic to use. Just be certain it is true. The converse is also true. Don't expect to hear it from your boyfriend, because it is not about you right now. It's about getting back together with your boyfriend because you have decided to do whatever it takes. Either way, you want everything to work in your favor.

In some cases your ex may have moved on to another relationship. You might be wondering, can I still get him back? This is a tough call. Only knowledge of your situation can help determine this. Finding the time to exercise you plan may be a little more difficult. Although you're in the second fiddle row, you'll need to accept this if you want to move forward in trying to regain the friendship. Nonetheless, you've still got to keep your chin up, your hope intact and continue to be nice.

Life is not a game to be taken lightly. It's more an art as you try to woe him with your charm and kindness, sincerely I might add.

The game of life is fraught with road kill. Trickery is the best way to become part of that heap. Don't do it. Forget about it, because it is a well known fact that deception eventually sees the light of day and is usually not very pretty. Your mother probably warned you to never lie, cheat or steal. The first two apply even if it appears innocent or paints a slightly different picture than what's real.

Honesty is the best policy in every area of life. My grandmother once said that when you tell the truth you never have to try and remember what you said. Don't do all the things that may be painful to get your boyfriend back, just to have it blow up in your face.

We all know this next pitfall...jealously. This is tricky because it can work, but the chances are fifty fifty. Date only outside the relationship you are trying to revive if it helps you maintain your self-esteem, not as a jealously tactic. Fairness and truthfulness must co-exist. Don't punish your date if the only reason for going out with him is to make your ex jealous.

Getting back with your ex comes down to being transparent in all you do and say. Winning back your ex can be exciting when you do what you know is right. These first steps should help you think through your particular situation as you begin the reconciliation process.
