1. He Treats Service Staff with Respect
Waiters, cashiers, cab drivers - he treats them all with politeness, courtesy, and frequently, he's downright chatty with the service staff he interacts with. This, my dear, is one sure sign the guy you're with is indeed nice.

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.
2. The Magic Words
They're not "I love you" or "I made dinner" ... though those things are nice too! The magic words I'm thinking of are "I'm sorry." If your guy has no problem admitting when he's wrong, it's another clue that he's got a heart of gold.

3. He Loves to Make You Laugh
... but only with appropriate jokes, of course, never anything racist, sexist, misogynistic, etc. Bonus points if he can make you laugh by laughing at himself.
Thinking...
Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.
4. He's Not Afraid to Use the F Word
Feminism. That F word. If he uses it, and he actually seems to be truly interested in equality for all, regardless of sex or gender, then he's a nice guy. The end.

If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.
5. He's an Animal Lover
If your fella's BFF is furry and named Fido, and if he takes good care of his Fido friend, he's probably a nice guy. I mean, really, how many good pet owners have you know who weren't just the best?
Thinking...
Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.
6. He Doesn't Get Shaming
... and he certainly doesn't do it. He doesn't understand why people give women (or men) such a hard time about their bodies, and he doesn't call out what other adults should or shouldn't be doing or wearing.
Thinking...
Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.
7. He Takes Care
Does your man want to take care of you when you're sick? Does he take good care of his siblings, parents, and other friends and family? Oh. Yep. He's probably a nice guy.
Thinking...
Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.
8. His People Are Good
If you've met his friends and family, and they're all nice, since birds of a feather flock together, he's almost certainly a nice person, too.
Thinking...
Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.
9. He Takes It as a Compliment
Some people seem afraid of, or are offended by, that word, "nice." But if you've heard him graciously accept the compliment "You're so nice!" then he might actually be trying to further cultivate his niceness, which is fantastic!
So... do you have a nice guy? When did you first suspect?
