will we get back together?

I've been broken up with my boyfriend of almost a year and a half (birthday: 7/1/85) for about two months now. We still act like we're together sometimes though. We mess around but there's also more to it. Sometimes he just hugs me tightly or we lay in each other's arms and to me that means more than just a physical thing, you would have to be interested emotionally to want to do that stuff. He's told me that he's thought about getting back together with me and just never went through with it. I think he's just unsure of his feelings right now or is afraid of commitment. Will we ever get back together? If so, will it be in the near future? Thank you so much for your help!
