This is a crazy tough question that’s likely run through your brain in one instance or another. It takes guts to figure out whether you are meant to be with someone. This means you are going to have to play your vulnerable card and admit how much you are head over heels in love with him.
The worry is he might not feel the same way back, and that cuts like a knife.
Are We Meant To Be?
Let’s start with 25 hot signals you’ve found your life partner!
Signal One: He’s Supportive
According to relationship experts at Elite Daily, regardless of how crazy your dreams are and your weird eating habits, the guy for you is going to accept them even if he doesn’t understand them.
When a man supports your hopes and dreams, that’s magical. A man who believes in you and pushes you to go after what you want is golden. So many men are insecure and disappointed with themselves that they aren’t able to look for the great in anyone else.
Truth: A man who is supportive in anything you do is clearly the perfect guy for you!
Signal Two: This Guy Has Great Ears
Women need a man who can listen. When you want to vent, you don’t need to be judged or dismissed. You need to be loved and appreciated for you. If your man is a good listener while you get everything you need off your chest, then you’ve likely snatched up a winner.
Signal Three: He’s Excited to Build with You
Strong and healthy relationships are tough to create and maintain. But when you have landed a guy who is crazy excited to create plans and build dreams together, that’s a good sign he is the right man for you.
What this means is he is putting you first and letting you know he is willing to help you create your visions and take you to the finish line, together.
If you’ve got a guy who makes it all about him, you will never get the “working together” you need for a real long-term union. Hope that makes sense because you deserve it.
Signal Four: The Trust Works Both Ways
Trust is seriously everything in a relationship. Sure, you both might screw up from time to time, but as long as it’s not major and you own up to it, it will only make you both stronger.
When you can trust a man with your deepest fears that means you can trust him will all aspects of your life. That’s the foundation you need to build your union stronger.
Bottom line, if you can both trust each other, you’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Signal Five: He’s Comfortable Doing Nothing
You get to a point in a relationship where you can do nothing and still feel a satisfying comfort. That’s a super simple sign that you are meant to be together till death do you part. Think of that in a positive mindset, please.
Signal Six: This Man Doesn’t Put You Down
The worst thing a man can do is put a woman down. That’s just showing he’s an insecure bully who’s got nothing better to do than to hurt someone.
If you’ve found a man who is always looking out for your best interest and doesn’t try and sucker-punch you, then you’ve landed a man you might not want to ever be without. That’s magical in my world.
Signal Seven: He Pays Attention to What You Like in Your Coffee
The small things in life really do matter. When a guy remembers and makes sure you know he is listening to what you say and doing his best to accommodate, that’s really a truly strong factor in a fabulous relationship.
Knowing what you like in your coffee and knowing what restaurants you prefer should be top priority for the man who deserves your undivided attention. Never forget that, please.
Signal Eight: Even Apart, the Feelings Don’t Change
This is a tough but strong sign you are with the man you should be with. There are going to be times when you’re going to be apart. He might be off to work for an extended weekend or you might be on vacation with your mom and dad. It doesn’t really matter as long as you are feeling just as strongly about each other after you get back.
In fact, you should feel more for each other because you’ve missed each other so much.
Signal Nine: You Miss Him When He’s Away
This is a straight-in-your-face signal you want to be with this special man. If you miss him like crazy when he’s away, it’s a clear indication you are meant to be with him.
When you miss a man, it means you love who he is and how he makes you feel. If you didn’t care for him, you would be happy when he had to go away for work or for a weekend with the boys.
Does that make sense?
Trust me…when you are truly missing your man when he isn’t in your arms, you are really meant to be. This is such a strong and true signal.
Signal Ten: He Gets the News First
When you automatically go to your man with any new news you receive, that means you really do care about him. If he’s the first person you think of to tell about a promotion or even the death of a clear and close friend, that’s a straight-up honest indicator you two are meant to be.
If you didn’t care, you would go to your best girlfriend with the key news that matters in your life. Think about it and reflect.
Signal Eleven: You WANT to Share It All with Him
If you find yourself wanting to share everything with your man, the good and the bad, that’s a telltale red-hot signal you are truly meant to be with him forever.
This just means you care deeply about his opinion and his support. It means you care about what he thinks and what you mean to him.
Bottom line: When you want to tell all, you most definitely are destined to be with him…period.
Signal Twelve: Your Happiness Is Connected
If you are both truly happy together, this is a good sign that you should move forward together. Happiness is everything in a successful relationship. When you both have the want and need to smile for the most part when you are together, that’s a clear take-action signal you better be together as one.
Signal Thirteen: Honesty Is There
The basis of any strong and successful relationship is trust. If you are both honest with each other, no matter how difficult, and if you both understand how important honesty is, then you are one step closer to being together forever with your man.
Seriously, if you can’t trust your partner, what do you really have?
If you are meant to be, there will most definitely be a strong value of trust.
Signal Fourteen: No Walls or Boundaries
When you finally get to the point in a relationship where there are no walls and boundaries, no stop points, you are indicating that you are destined to be together. We all know it’s tough to open up and show all your vulnerabilities. This is likely because you’ve been taken advantage of one too many times.
My point is, when you are able to drop your walls and let him in without conditions, there’s no doubt you are meant to be together forever.
Signal Fifteen: Fighting Is Scarce
Fighting with your partner gets you nowhere fast. When you don’t fight with your partner, that’s a nice solid indicator you are matched up just right.
Who wants to spend their life fighting? Not me, that is for sure.
Having constructive disagreements is a productive learning tool. Screaming at each other is not. If you are able to steer clear of fighting with your man, you are on the right track.
Signal Sixteen: Just Heated Disagreements
Fighting just sucks. It means you are both out of control emotionally and only hurt is going to come of it. When you tone it down a bit and stick with heated disagreements, you are on track to finding the man you are meant to be with.
It’s perfectly okay to not agree with your man all the time. It’s how you deal with these disagreements that dictates your future.
Signal Seventeen: He Loves Your Family
If a man loves and gets along with your family for the most part, that’s an amazing sign that you’re meant to be with him for the long run.
We all know families can be very tough to deal with. If your guy is tolerant and even loving of your family, no matter how dysfunctional they are, you’ve scored a winner.
Signal Eighteen: He Is Always Willing to Solve Issues Together
When a guy is willing to consider your opinions and looks to solve issues together, that’s a nice signal you’ve found your perfect match. So often, relationships are unbalanced, with the guy dominating and taking away the identity of his significant other.
That’s totally wrong but the way it often is.
If your man is open and honest and understands what bothers you and wants to help fix it, you’ve found one amazing gent.
Signal Nineteen: The Small Things Matter to Both of You
The small things matter. If the both of you pay attention to the tiny magical moments in life and appreciate them, that’s a good sign you have found the man you should seriously be with.
Signal Twenty: You Just Found Each Other
There is nothing more magical than finding your significant other by chance. When you aren’t looking and you find each other, that’s innocently amazing.
If you happen to have found your guy accidentally, that can be one of the best factors working for you.
Signal Twenty-One: He’s Your Best Friend and Lover
True love is so much more than having a trusted lover. It’s about finding a man you love and trust and consider your best friend for life. That’s so much deeper than just a boy-toy.
If the man in your life is both your lover and friend, and if you’re happy, you’ve found who you should be with for life.
Signal Twenty-Two: You Have Precious Memories with Him
Precious memories are everything in a serious relationship. If you have a book full of loving memories with your man that mean something, you can consider yourself on the right track.
There is seriously nothing more powerful than straight-up true and strong memories. When you make them with the man you don’t want to be without, it makes them even more priceless.
Lucky you if you find yourself in this perfect in-love-forever scenario.
Signal Twenty-Three: He Supports and Lifts You Way Up High
If you are meant to be with a man, he’s going to always support you and lift you up to the sky, no matter what. You deserve a man who wants you to succeed and is oodles happy to help you get there, to reach your goals and more.
If your boy-toy doesn’t want you to reach your goals or doesn’t give you the tools and more to get you there fast, he’s not the man for you.
Signal Twenty-Four: You’ve Got Your Own Language
This is something truly special. When you have a special language with your guy that nobody else would initially understand, that’s super special in the big picture. This just means you trust and care about one another and you want to have a little fun too.
It is magical when you have created special lingo with your perfect man.
Signal Twenty-Five: You Couldn’t Be You without Him
When you are meant to be with a man, he simply makes you a better you. This means you are so much better when he is in your life lifting you up and making you a stronger you.
If you feel like you don’t want to be without your man, you are certainly on track to having the man of your dreams.
On the flip side, here are the danger signals that show he is not the man for you:
Danger Signal One: Long List of What You Want to Change
This is just wrong. Nobody should theoretically want to change anyone. When you want to change who your man is, chances are he’s not the guy for you, no matter how hard you want to believe he is.
Nobody should want to change anyone they love. Maybe a little tweaking, but never change.
Experts report if you are focusing on his flaws, he’s not the one for you.
Danger Signal Two: No Trust
If you can’t trust your partner, you should never ever in a zillion years be with him. Trust is the basis for any serious union.
So, if your man is a liar or a cheater, you need to cut the ties right now. When you are meant to be with something, there will be no question of trust.
Danger Signal Three: You Can’t Be You in His Presence
If you are unable to be the real you, if you are pretending in his presence, then he is definitely not the guy you should give your trust to.
You deserve to have a man who trusts and believes in you. If this isn’t the case without effort, you need to kick his butt to the curb and move on.
Danger Signal Four: Friends and Family Don’t Like Him
When your family and friends don’t appreciate your boyfriend, that’s a clear sign he isn’t right for you. Your family wants you to be happy and you need to trust deeply in their opinion.
If they don’t want you to be with a particular someone, you need to consider that fact and perhaps abide by that.
Danger Signal Five: He Lies
A liar gets nowhere fast in life. If your man has been caught lying, chances are he will do it again and again. Not a nice thing to admit but it is what it is.
A healthy relationship is all about balance. You need to give and take with your partner if you seriously want to succeed. There is nothing nice about lying because it just doesn’t work.
When you find a man who inside out doesn’t lie, then you’ve found the gem you deserve to be with.
Danger Signal Six: There’s No Respect
Seriously, one of the first things you deserve in a relationship is respect. If you are with a gent who doesn’t appreciate and respect you, that’s a straight-in-your-face signal to kick his butt to the curb.
If you don’t have respect in your relationship, both ways, you really have nothing.
That’s one of the base points that makes your union so special. You should want to respect the man you are with, and he should want to give you respect in return. If that’s not the case you need to accept you just aren’t meant to be, unless you want an unbalanced relationship where you get your heart broken.
That is exactly what you don’t deserve.
Danger Signal Seven: He Doesn’t Excite You
Holy crap, relationships are tough enough. If you don’t have some spark and excitement, it’s going to be tough to make it work, especially out of the starting gates.
Keep this in mind if you think you are with the man you don’t want to be without.
Danger Signal Eight: You Are Always Putting in the Effort
If it seems like you are the only one putting the effort into strengthening your relationship, you might want to consider if you really want to be with this guy. Truth: A strong and healthy union takes two people working full-time and then some.
There is zero reason a relationship should be a one-way street. If it is, you need to kick his butt to the curb, pronto. Sorry, that’s just how it needs to be for your sake.
Danger Signal Nine: You Feel the Need to Make Excuses for Him
If you find you are making excuses for your man because of his behavior or for his missed appearances, you need to give your head a shake. The man you deserve should make you proud and he should always be there for you. If not, you need to let him go.
Danger Signal Ten: You Don’t Want to Open Up to Him
If you are with the man you don’t want to be without, you should want to tell him your deepest secrets. You should trust him with your everything.
Danger Signal Eleven: He’s Abused You
This one is a no-brainer from the outside looking in. If your man has abused you physically or emotionally, you have no choice but to get rid of him. You don’t deserve to be treated that way under any circumstance. I’m firm with this one. It is for your own good.
Final Words
