7 Ways a Guy Shows He Loves You ...

There are many ways a guy shows he loves you. We place so much importance on those three little words, but words are very easy to say. What's far more important is that a guy shows you how much you mean to him. Here are some of the ways a guy shows he loves you …

Looks after You when You're Sick

One of the sweetest ways a guy shows he loves you is by looking after you when you're sick. If he brings you meals in bed and heads off to the supermarket to pick up anything you want, he's a keeper. And if he looks after you when you've drunk too much, he's a real sweetheart!

2

Defends You

Have you ever been hassled by someone in front of your boyfriend, yet he does nothing about it? A guy who loves you won't tolerate anyone bugging you. He'll never laugh it off as a joke, or tell you not to make a fuss. Sure, you don't need anyone to defend you - you're perfectly capable of arguing your own corner - but isn't it sweet when he stands up for you?

UPD:

When he sees you being disrespected or treated unfairly, his protective instincts kick in. He does this not because he thinks you're weak, but because he respects you and believes you deserve the best treatment possible. And it's not always about confrontations; sometimes it's the subtle way he interjects or changes the subject when someone else is making you uncomfortable. It's his way of silently saying, "I've got your back." The bottom line is his actions show he values you highly and sends a clear message to others that you're not alone.

Respects Your Family

If your family are important to you, your guy should respect that - and them. Even if they don't really get on, and he'd rather not spend time with them, he'll still be nice to them and tolerate them for your sake. He'll always be polite to your mom, because she's your mom and important to you.

4

Encourages You

A guy who loves you will always encourage you to achieve your ambitions and potential. He won't hold you back because he's jealous or afraid that you'll leave him behind. Instead he'll be proud of you, and will do everything he can to support you. He'll never tell you that your ideas are silly or unrealistic - a guy who loves you will never put you down.

UPD:

He'll be a sounding board for your thoughts and a cheerleader for your successes, big or small. When you face challenges, he's there offering a shoulder to lean on and wise words to lift your spirits. It's not just about listening, though—he actively participates in helping you plot out your goals, and might even surprise you with his creativity in finding solutions to your dilemmas. It shows in his eyes that light up when you talk about your passions and in the way he stands by your side as you go after them.

5

Planning a Future

Does your guy talk about a future with you? This is a sign that he loves you and wants you in his life. By contrast, a guy whose plans never include you isn't giving you much importance in his life. It could indicate that in his eyes, you are just a temporary amusement. If you've been together a while, he should be seeing you as part of his future.

UPD:

When he speaks of future projects, whether it’s vacations, moving in together, or simply mapping out the next few years with career or personal goals, your inclusion is key. If he's making you a part of his long-term plans, designing them around mutual interests and shared dreams, this is his way of showing a deep commitment. His readiness to intertwine your lives suggests a depth of emotion and a desire for partnership that goes beyond the present moment. A future with both your names on it is, quite frankly, the ultimate testament of his love.

Meaning is not what you start with but what you end up with.

Values Your Opinion

Someone who loves you listens to what you say. He will value your opinion and take it into account when making decisions that affect both of you. If a guy puts your opinions down, be wary. It's not a good sign. But if he treats you like the intelligent person you are, he's worth your time.

7

Anniversaries

A guy who loves you (and has a decent memory) remembers important dates. He doesn't turn up with a wilted bunch of flowers because it's your birthday/ anniversary/ Feb 14th and he feels obliged to buy something. He buys you little gifts just because he wants to surprise you or thinks that you'll like it.

If you complain that your guy never says that he loves you, consider if he shows you he loves you in other ways. What he does is far more meaningful. How much importance do you place on hearing 'I love you'?
