10 Tips to Know If He is the One
6. Does he give you your space?
It is important in a long-term relationship that you respect each other’s individuality and space. You do not want to be with a guy who does not give you any breathing space. If his love seems to smother you, then think twice before committing to him for the long haul. Such a relation might seem good in the beginning but as time passes, you would need to be with someone who is willing to give you your space.
7. Is he secure about the relationship?
Just as a woman is behind a man’s success, there needs to be a very secure man behind a woman’s success. If your boyfriend is not secure about the relationship, then this could be a red flag. When you think of committing to someone for a long-term, you need a man who is secure enough to let you be and not make rules about who you can talk to.
8. Does he listen to you?
Listening is more than just hearing what the other person is saying. If your man keenly pays attention to what you are saying and takes notice of the non-verbal gestures, then he is a keeper. It is rare to find a man who knows what it means when you say “I’m fine” during a fight.
9. Does he make you smile?
When you think of spending your life with someone, you would want a man who knows how to bring a smile to your face. Even in your darkest hour, he should know how to make you believe in yourself and help encourage you to be your best. If you are with a guy who knows how to point you towards the silver lining, then he could make for a very good life partner.
10. Is he your best friend?
A long-term relationship cannot survive if you are not good friends with each other. If you can share all your fears, secrets, insecurities, anxieties, joys, and hopes with a guy without feeling scared, or doubtful, then he will make for a great life partner. The friendship that you two share will help make the journey easier.
