This is a tricky one...
A factor that could help you decide would be to think about how long you have been split up for... Most people say it unsaid law that after three months you should be over months properly and be ready to move on... So you could say that if it hasn't been three months yet then it's still early days so you could just be missing him rather then wanting him back.
Another thing that you have to think about is that when you are in a relationship you spend the majority of your time with that person and when you split up you can get pretty lonely or stuck for things to do. Even times when you used to just sit in with your partner can be lonely because now you're by yourself... What you have to ask yourself is how do you feel in the times that you are at work or busy... are you ok then? And then when you're on your own or out trying to make new friends you're lonely.... because if that's the case it could be that you just miss his company and don't necesserly want him back...
If you in despair over being away from him ask yourself why did you split up in the first place... Do you want to go back there and risk all that happening again? Will you really be happy...... If you think so then pherhaps contact him to see how's he's feeling.
Sometimes they say you don't know what you got until it's gine... But it really is hard to answer this question without knowing more details about you and why you split and how long you were together and has been split more...

then ask yourself what you miss about your ex, because that is what this whole question revolves around. do you miss the way your ex smiled or do you just miss being smiled at, that type of thing. ask yourself whether you miss your ex specifically or just being with someone. also, can you imagine yourself with someone else?
depending on how honest you are with yourself, and your answers, i think you will be able to figure out whether you just miss being friends with your ex, or if you miss being WITH your ex.
hope that helped!
