A Husband Who’ll Love You Forever Shows You These 5 Loving Gestures
A man’s behavior shifts with his feelings (yes, we have feelings). If he’s mildly interested in you, he acts a certain way. If he hates you, he does certain things. If he really doesn’t care, it shows. Well, here’s what your husband will do if he’s in love with you (and will be forever):
1. He still looks at you the same way
Whether you have a few extra pounds from having his babies or have mascara running down your cheeks after finishing a sad book, a man who really loves you will still look at you in the same way he did when you first stole his heart. He doesn’t see the sweats you’ve worn for a week because you have the flu or the scary haircut you came home with. A husband who will love you forever just sees you. He sees the girl he fell in love with and he believes you get more beautiful every day. You’ll catch him staring at you for no reason, flashing a smile or a wink when you do notice his gaze. He can’t get enough of your face and he loves staring into your eyes.
This will never change, no matter how many years pass.
2. He sacrifices for your smile
You’re the light of his life, his better half, the spring in his step. He’s happy when you’re happy, so he goes as far out of his way as he needs to to make sure you’re smiling. He sacrifices his time, resources and abilities to make your day.
You know he’s a keeper when he puts your happiness before his own. In the ideal situation you feel the same and do the same for him. That being said, married life isn’t always going to be full of butterflies and rainbows (as you well know).
3. He believes in you and celebrates your talents and gifts
He is convinced you’re the smartest, funniest, prettiest and most talented person he’s ever known — and he will tell you so. He’ll be proud of you and just tickled he’s the lucky one who won you over. A husband who will love you forever will encourage you to learn new things, be your best self and grow to be even more accomplished. He’ll be enamored with your knowledge, creativity, skills and ideas. He’ll stay up late just so he can hear about your new ideas for your home, your vacation or your work. He’ll value and seek your opinions and your input when making decisions.
His love for you as a person will only get richer with age.
4. He tells you the ugly truth to help you grow
When hard times roll around he works through them with you. If there’s a problem in your relationship, he brings it up early on and tries to fix it with you, without holding it against you. He understands that he’s far from perfect, so he goes about conflict resolution humbly yet directly.
He tells you what needs to be improved without making you feel bad about yourself. You know he does it out of love, not malice.
5. He’s still dating you
He never really stopped. He’s still trying to learn about you, and he makes a sincere and intentional effort to keep the spark in your relationship alive. He’s still asking you questions. He’s still trying to put his best foot forward for you. You still go out on dates. He takes you to dinner, out to ice cream or to the movies. He holds your hand. He kisses you on the cheek. You cuddle on the couch. He listens to you, learns and remembers even the quirkiest things about you.
