If a man truly loves you, you will know it and feel it. If he doesn’t, you will be left wondering all the time if he does. So, here are 9 things the right man will never make you wonder about.
1. Whether or not he respects you
We cannot love someone we don’t have respect for. Respect for their opinions, respect for their feelings, respect for their wants and needs.
A man who loves and cares for you will always consider you when making decisions that affect you both. He will ask for your opinions. He will treat you as an extension of himself, because that’s what you are in a relationship.
2. Whether or not he thinks you’re beautiful
The truth is that when you love someone for who they truly are, everything about them becomes beautiful. No man should let the woman in his life wonder if he’s attracted to her. Well-placed compliments and paying attention to small details do wonders.
3. Whether or not he appreciates you
There should absolutely be no gap in time where you feel unappreciated by your partner. It’s understandable that life gets crazy and stressful, and often times we lose sight of someone else’s feelings if we’re caught up in our hectic day-to-day routine. But this is why it’s so important to be willing to put effort into your relationship.
No matter how busy or stressed out a man is, when he comes home to you at night it’s important that he puts in the conscious effort to make sure you know he appreciates everything you do for him.
4. Whether or not you’re worth the effort
You’re worth every single ounce of effort a man has in his heart to give to you and your relationship. The right man will never make you question that.
5. Whether or not he envisions a future with you
When a man is serious about you, he will have no problem making plans together for the future. Whether it’s an upcoming holiday or a vacation next summer, his willingness to use “we” when talking about it is a clear sign that when he pictures a more mature version of himself, he’s also picturing you there by his side.
6. Whether or not he supports you
He will stay by your side and be your teammate through it all.
Of course, this doesn’t mean you can disrespect him, lie, or cheat. It doesn’t mean you can betray his trust and expect him to stick around because he promised to commit to you. This point is about things the two of you go through together and him having the integrity to not walk away when times get hard.
Any man can be by your side on the sunny days. The real test of character is whether or not he will hold the umbrella over you during the stormy days.
7. Whether or not you can open up to him
A good man will encourage you to open up and share your feelings with him. There should never be any fear of him flying off the handle or overreacting if you share something with him. This means being able to be the most genuine, uncensored version of yourself around him.
8. Whether or not he’s dedicated to improving himself
Whether it be learning new things, developing a new skill set, reading a new book or watching a documentary, a good man who prides himself on continuous self-improvement will always intellectually challenge you and keep your attention. He will be doing these things for himself, but the added benefit will be the positive impact it has on your relationship.
9. Whether or not you’re safe around him
One of the best compliments a woman can give a man is telling him that she feels safe around him. Regardless of how attracted she is to you or how funny she thinks you are or how much money you have, if a woman cannot sleep soundly by your side at night, none of it matters.
