You love him, you have a fantastic relationship, and you could not be happier. Could marriage be on the table? Here are some signs he is cut out for the long haul:
He in fact listens when you talk.
It sounds apparent, but a guy you really engage in conversation with cares about your thoughts, feelings, and perspective on big and small things. An open communication forum means you work together in a partnership and neither of you is in charge of the relationship.
He’s not stuck in the past.
He does not brag about previous adventures and he takes your relationship seriously. Focusing on the moment, you can ensure that he is not secretly longing for an old flame or wondering about the security of your relationship. He is committed to you like he can be trusted.
He knows his strengths and weaknesses and enjoys self-improvement.
Someone with a positive view of themselves is a pleasure to spend time with, and compromising after a disagreement happens easily when your man is at all times open to changing for the better.
He has a working car, a job, and a savings plan for the next three years.
These are all signs of a grown man with visions of the future. If he can take care of himself, you know you can count on him too. In him you find the same clever, independent and clever equal as you.
He doesn’t live with his parents.
He is responsible enough to pay his bills, do his laundry, and clean up after himself. No need to run to mom or dad to take care of basic chores around the house. Although, so long as he does not stay at home, he’s willing to meet your parents when appropriate.
Her idea of a good time doesn’t suggest going to clubs or getting beat up every night with her boys.
He has little interest in the concepts of girls, parties, and drugs, and he is prepared to move away from the clichéd fraternal male ways.
He talks about the future with you, including marriage, in a practical way.
You find yourself discussing shared goals: what house would you live in, do you want kids (or how would you raise them), what your financial plans are like, and how much travel or recreational activities you do. Do. Overall, the future is not a dreamed and idealized scenario, but a scenario that’s likely to arrive soon.
