Is my Ex boyfriend starting to like me again? or is he being friendly.

So. (i'll try and keep this short, sorry if its long..general info at the top about Him. & the stuff i'm asking about under.)


Long story short though, me and my ex bf was together for one year 3 months. but have been broken up for a bit over a year now.
We remained in contact after the break up, but it wasn't much, maybe every couple months.
Now we are a bit closer and talk every so often.
He got a girlfriend a few months back and was with her for a while, to which we wouldn't speak so much then, but every time we did get in contact he would talk to me or meet up but he would always say negative things on how she treats him.
They aren't together anymore, and from the sounds of it he's realised how she wasn't a lovely person. and how he feels really stupid in general for getting involved with someone like her. but He told her he doesn't want to be in contact anymore. etc..(his words)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After christmas was when he started talking to me more. but in febuary he told me he miss how, genuine, nice and honest i was to him and he wanted to say sorry for the way he treated me at the end of our relationship.

But these last couple of months (end of april-now) when we've spoken or seen each other, he's been rather friendly or invited me round..
but the things that i've been questioning is (and this is where my main question comes in as its recent stuff ) was when i do see him, he seems to open up to me, tell me things and sometimes be touchy (as in hugs).
It was our birthdays at the start of this month 8th mine, his 14th.
We went out for a drink the day before my birthday and had a catch up because i didn't see his much due to finishing uni..
but he asked me if i'd like to come to his party (this weekend just gone)
I went alone and i won't lie i really liked it.
but through out he would always give me hugs, touch me playfully(as in tickles) or be really nice to me. (even around his whole family and a few friends). While at the party i tried to mingle with everyone so i was away from him, but he would most of the time come over.
I ended up staying the night and sleeping in a spare room, because we decided on not sharing a bed, but in the morning, he came and woke me up and sat next to me in bed, but he feel asleep cuddling me.
I shortly got up after that as it was like 11 something and after 12 we went out to a country pub. but on the walk there he would keep putting his arm around my shoulder and pulling me close to him, or sometimes placing his hand on my back while walking behind me..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm just confused, his actions was strange as he hasn't been like that in ages. I never really looked into his actions much since xmas either as i just though he was being friendly and we was getting on, but since the weekend. I'm a bit confused.
I won't lie i do still have feelings for him, due to being my first serious bf. but could he be falling for me again?

(his mum works at the same place at my mum, so they or me would sometimes see her at gathering.)

Seems like you two are having a friendship that's slowly blossoming into that best friends type that everyone would love to have. A best friend who opens up to you and really cares for you and is always there for you and putting time there for you rather than just leaving you to it and not seeming bothered - is a truly great thing to have.

He may like you and you may like him but if you love how things are just remember it'll all change again if you decide to get closer and things go pete wong
You're still cuddling up with an ex? Lol he probably still likes you. But seriously you need to move on. Ex's are in the past for a reason and very rarely does it workout when they get back together

No. We broke up mutual actually, due to going to different Universities.
He got with a girl in his class but didn't work out as she cheated.
