How Do I Know He Loves Me - The Short List
Many books are in publication on the topic of love and you will find many how to articles on love.
Love is that one thing that can be indescribable but many people are looking for it.
Love is not something you make, its something you do.
If the word is simply a noun to you and you don't experience love in the form of the verb that it is, you are missing something special.
Flowers, candy and saying it each day do not begin to measure how much someone loves you.
These gestures are great and they can also prove nothing at all.
Love will be there when you disagree, it will still be there if you gain weight or lose your job.
Love is that commitment a person will live by and even die for...
willingly.
Love will be there in sickness and health, in riches and poverty and no paper can enforce it or dissolve it.
Love will initiate and is proactive in providing what you need.
Don't confuse needs with wants and desires.
The ring is symbolic and the size of the diamond is meaningless when you have no one at your side that truly cares for you.
To use the word love to explain how you feel about a pair of shoes or a fancy car is to not know what love is.
The word has experienced misuse and gross perversions through the ages.
Love is not something that you can force someone to do, but you can make someone say it; but what good is love if it is legislated or forced? Love is not love if its only showed on the 14th of February; roses and a box of chocolates do not come close in truly expressing it.
Now that I've spent some time in writing about what this thing called love is and what it is not, how do you know if this guy loves you? Okay, here's the short list:
Love doesn't have to be something described as old fashion and a thing that no longer exists, it should be and in real, not manufactured and definitely not "a thing that you make someone feel".

- Knowing it will take time.
You must be patient.
You may think because the relationship has lasted for a couple of months proves it, let time confirm it. - He will not pressure you into doing something you don't want to do and he will not insult you for your decision.
Love is not rude, harsh, over bearing and will not harm you! - He is not easily angered and he is patient.
- He will not manipulate you with lies and material things to get something he wants
- His intentions are clear and known up front.
( of course this is no to say he loves you if his intentions are strictly sexual and he states it ) - He initiates and looks for nothing in return.
- He respects you and will not stifle your growth.
Love doesn't have to be something described as old fashion and a thing that no longer exists, it should be and in real, not manufactured and definitely not "a thing that you make someone feel".
