What you would be looking for is more key language such as:

+ I love you and I would like to go to MC and fix our M

Or something like that...

Until then... he could just be trying to look good in the eyes of others...

Don't get me wrong, I think it was a good conversation... but there was no real substance... no real strategy to grow back together...

And as others have witnessed and experienced... it could just be a test to see if you can still be sucked in... to see if you are still there, in case he changes his mind...

If he thinks you are still there... that you are still pursuing him... then he can't really miss you...
