Sharing is caring!

 

You’ve been with your significant other for over a year, and you just can’t help but ask yourself: does he really love me?

You want to know where the relationship is headed.

You want to know what the future holds.

And most importantly, you want to know if he’s going to be the one who sticks around for the long haul.

Maybe you’re no longer sure that he’s as invested in the relationship as you are.

Maybe you’re starting to wonder if he’s still interested at all.

But don’t worry—I’m here to help.

With this guide,  you will figure out whether or not your partner is still in love with you so that you can finally have some peace of mind when it comes to your relationship.

 

15 Signs He Loves You Deeply

1. He asks for your advice and values your opinion.

Another sign that he loves you is when he asks for your advice and values your opinion.

When a guy loves you, he will take the time to get to know you, even if it means learning about things he’s not that interested in.

He wants to be able to have an intelligent conversation with you; even if it is about pop culture or fashion trends.

He values your input because he knows that your opinion matters and that you care about him too.

All of this shows how much he appreciates your friendship and how important you are in his life.

It also shows how open-minded and selfless

he can be by asking for your advice or considering what you have to say before making a decision.

These are just some of the signs that show how much he truly cares about you and wants to make sure that everything in both of your lives will work out perfectly

 

2. He is attentive to your personal boundaries.

Someone who really loves you will pay attention to your personal boundaries, and never pressure you to do things that make you uncomfortable.

If, for example, you’re not ready for sex yet, a partner who loves you won’t push the issue or make you feel bad about it.

Likewise, if there are subjects that are off-limits to discuss at this stage in your relationship (where he is concerned), he should respect that without question!

Maybe there are certain memories or experiences in your life that have been painful to talk about.

That trauma is unique to you; if they truly love and care about someone, they will understand why those things are hard for their partner to share—and won’t ever insist on hearing more than what their loved one wants them to know.

If this man consistently respects your personal boundaries and makes sure that he never causes unnecessary pain by forcing difficult topics into the open too soon; then there is a very good chance he cares deeply about maintaining a safe space for your relationship together — both physically and emotionally.

 

3. He wants you to meet his family.

If a man is falling in love with you, he will want you to meet his family and friends.

You might be wondering, does he love me?

Here’s a surefire way to find out: does he want you to meet his family and friends?

If the answer is yes, then you’re in!

This is a great sign that he wants you to be around for the long haul.

After all, as much as we hate to admit it, our families really do know us better than anyone else.

So if he’s showing you off to his parents or siblings, he must think you’re something special!

It may be because he wants his family and friends to see how amazing you are or it may be because he loves to show off how much of a catch you are.

Either way, this is one of the most important signs that he loves you deeply: He wants your families to meet each other.

He also wants his friends to like you so make sure that when they meet each other, whether it’s at some function or just randomly, you act appropriately and make a good first impression!

 

4. He says “we” instead of “I”.

There’s nothing like the feeling of finding a guy who loves you deeply and completely.

Everything about a relationship feels better, more natural and peaceful when you’re with someone who is on the same page as you.

When he says “we” instead of “I,” it means that he considers you to be his family now, that he has fully merged his life with yours in every way.

Although these conversations can be intimidating or scary at first, they are extremely important because they determine whether or not a relationship will go deeper in the future.

If your boyfriend isn’t ready to have them with you yet, give him some space and time to get there.

It doesn’t mean that he doesn’t love you in his own way.

 

5. He doesn’t want you to settle for anything less than the best.

A man who loves you will not want you to settle in any area of your life.

When he loves you, he won’t be threatened by your successes or happiness because your joy makes him happy as well.

He won’t hold back and tell you what a great job you did when something goes well in your life.

He will always be there to support you and encourage you to reach your goals and pursue your dreams.

A man who loves you only wants the best for you, and that includes everything from how often the two of you have sex to what career path is right for you.

If he truly wants to spend the rest of his life with someone, then it doesn’t matter if he has to wait longer for sex than he would with someone else, or if he has to help that woman find a different job than she originally wanted.

All that matters is that she is going after what she truly wants so that she can be her true self 100% of the time.

 

6. He tells you he loves you and shows it through his actions.

This is pretty much the most obvious sign that he loves you.

If he’s consistent about saying it, and not just when he wants something from you, it’s a good sign that he means it.

And if he’s also showing love through his actions, then that’s a sure sign of true love.

It all comes down to one thing: positive reinforcement.

That’s what we seek in relationships, and what we want out of the people we love.

When someone shows us they care in the ways we want to be cared for and need to be cared for, we feel loved.

 

7. He goes out of his way for you on occasion.

Your guy may not be the type to do this every other month, but he will surprise you on occasion.

When you’re in a bind and need him to pick up groceries or prescriptions, he’s happy to do so without complaining.

When you have an obligation out of town and don’t want your family members to be home alone, he’ll spend time with them.

He’ll even call during the day to check in on you just because he knows it makes your day.

Most importantly, when you’re sick and hear his voice on the phone or open your door and see him standing there with soup, it means that deep down inside him is a generous, caring soul who loves you dearly.

 

8. When making plans, he tells you his schedule in advance.

He knows you are not a mind reader and that you have your own busy schedule to manage.

This is why he cares enough to tell you his schedule in advance.

He wants to make sure that all the plans you make together are going through and that neither of you will have to cancel or change them at the last minute, which would disrupt both of your lives and schedules.

He doesn’t want to be thought of as selfish, so he goes out of his way to keep you informed.

Also, by telling you his plans in advance, he shows that he respects how important your time is and how much it means for him not to waste it or make it feel like it was all for nothing because he had to cancel at the last minute due to something else coming up that was more important than spending time with you.

 

9. He includes you in his future plans.

If you hear your man talking about his long term plans, it’s a good sign that he sees you as part of his future.

Whether he’s talking about marriage and kids or just where he sees himself in five years, if he’s including you in his ideas then this is a positive sign that he wants to be with you.

If your man tells you where he wants to live, what sort of house, neighbourhood and even schools he would like then it’s clear that he sees more than just a casual relationship.

He may also talk about how much time off work they get and whether they allow their workers to bring pets into the office (if this is important), these are all evidence of him thinking ahead to include you in his plans.

 

10. When you voice an interest, he does things related to it with you or for you.

When you voice interest in something, he’ll do things related to it with you or for you.

He may ask what you want to do for your birthday and then plan a date that incorporates all the things he knows you like.

He may make you a playlist of music that he knows that you’re into.

When you talk about wanting to see a particular film, he’ll take note and go with you when it’s released (instead of seeing another movie).

When there’s an exhibit of artwork on display at a museum or gallery that’s been on your list, he’ll buy tickets and take the time to take you there because he loves your company, loves learning more about the things that matter to you—and loves making memories together.

 

11. He makes an effort to get to know people in your life.

He makes an effort to get to know people in your life who are important to you and makes connections with them.

If your significant other makes an effort to get to know the people you care about—and not only that but likes them and even tries to make a good impression on them—it may be because he loves you.

Think about it; if someone doesn’t care about the woman they’re dating, chances are they wouldn’t actually be all that interested in getting to know those she holds dear, or want to make a positive impression on them.

But if he’s trying to impress your family members or close friends?

That’s a sign of genuine care and consideration.

People don’t put forth that much effort for someone they’re simply with out of convenience.

 

12. He shares personal stories from the past.

He shares personal, meaningful stories from his past that helped shape who he is today, even though it might not be easy for him.

It’s a sign that he trusts you and is opening up to you because it isn’t always easy for some people to open up.

Being able to see someone’s past is important in knowing who they are today.

It can show you their personality, why they are the way they are, and how they are going to act in the future.

If a man tells you about his past and what led him to become the person he is today, then that is a major sign that he sees you as a potential long-term partner.

He wants to let you into his life so that you can understand him better.

Watching a man share something personal with you can be an incredibly moving experience because it shows just how much he cares about being understood by someone else—you!

 

13. He Lets You Meet His Friends.

You’ve met some of his close friends and they like you and make it known, so he doesn’t feel like he’s cheating on them by being with someone else while they’re not around.

You’ve met some of his close friends and they like you and make it known, so he doesn’t feel like he’s cheating on them by being with someone else while they’re not around.

This is the kind of thing that helps show a guy that it’s safe to introduce you to his closest friends.

If you’ve seen him in social situations with his friends, then he probably feels comfortable enough around you to bring you along.

And he wouldn’t do that if there wasn’t something special between the two of you!

 

14. He Stands Up For You.

If someone is trying to hurt your feelings, he will always have your back and stand up for you.

For example, if you have a friend who is making fun of you in front of other people at a party, he’ll come over and say something to her like, “Hey (friend’s name), can I talk to you for a second?”

Then the two of them will go into the kitchen or another room so that she can hear him out.

This is how much he cares about protecting your feelings—even when it means getting into an argument with someone close to you!

Also, remember that if this guy doesn’t stand up for you then maybe he’s not so great after all and should be avoided.

 

15. Trust Your Gut Instinct.

To be truthful, if you don’t feel loved by your partner then your relationship is missing something.

That’s not to say you can’t grow and learn to love someone with time, but if you’re just not feeling it, then maybe he isn’t the one for you.

So how do you know if he really loves you?

The truth is that we all have a gut instinct about the people we are dating—whether they are good for us or not.

It’s how many of us decide whether to pursue a relationship or end it.

But what exactly is your gut instinct?

It’s a sense, feeling, or knowing that comes from within.

You may feel something in your body when listening to your gut instinct as well such as a physical pressure on your chest or tightness in the throat when something isn’t right.

The more we trust our gut instinct and listen to what it has to say, the stronger our intuition gets and the more accurate it becomes.

So how do you listen to your gut instinct?

Try asking an intentional question like “what does my heart want” and be still and quiet so that an answer can come through loud and clear.

 

Conclusion:

While there is no magic formula to ensuring that you don’t get your heart broken or that you will never lose a person you love, I do believe that when you meet someone sincere, truly wonderful, and whom you deeply love—it’s worth it.

I think people can say to themselves “I’d rather have loved greatly and lost than never to have loved at all,” as one famous person once said.

True love is out there and it’s certainly worth the risk of loving another person.
