why could be that an ex checking now and then to see if you have a new partner?

Question

I tried to remain friend with my ex ...because our relationship was a real mess and was not working , so we both decided to break up ...so now she is with someone else ....I'm not totally over her, but yet now and then she's checking to see if I have someone else in my life ...why do you think she wants to know about that ?

Answer 1

She must still care about you. Doesn't mean that she wants you back or anything like that, but that she is just trying to be a friend.
