| Anyone close to a man that has recently fallen in love | | | | to sort your leaky washing machine? If a man is |
| will notice a big change. I firmly believe that we are | | | | investing his time in DIY on your place, he's thinking long |
| empty without true love and that, as a man, we all | | | | term. He doesn't want these niggles to get in his way |
| have a lot to thank the women of the world for. While | | | | when he's here. |
| we might achieve most things ourselves, it is rarely | | | | Outside the DIY arena, maybe he is paying attention to |
| without the love of a good woman pushing us along | | | | what you say, hoping to help you solve other problems |
| behind. If you're a woman, how are you meant to | | | | in your life. Is he picking out ways he can help, offering |
| know that your man is falling for you? | | | | his opinion on the problem or at least offering you |
| 1) He Actually Cares | | | | support through tough times? If it seems as if he is of |
| It's obvious when a man really cares. More than 3 | | | | a helpful, generous nature, he's surely into you. |
| SMS messages in a day is one sure-fire sign that | | | | 4) The Perfect Gentleman |
| you're always on his mind. Does he hold doors open | | | | Manners cost nothing, be it holding open a door or |
| for you? Listen to you nattering on about your day at | | | | sharing an umbrella in the rain. It's not often a stranger |
| work? When you are done talking, will he then come | | | | would offer you their coat, but it's great when they do. |
| back at you with a thoughtful answer? He has | | | | Someone that loves you knows how great it is, and |
| definitely been listening. Does he pick up on your tone | | | | will always be looking for little ways to make your life |
| of voice? If you just have to say 'Hey' a certain way | | | | that bit easier. I know it has certainly never hindered |
| and he knows something is wrong, he's a keeper! | | | | my progress to act a gentleman. |
| 2) Is He Shy Around You? | | | | True gentlemen respect and appreciate their partners, |
| Whether it stems from fear of rejection or not I don't | | | | and will do their best to display their affections. If he is |
| know, but a lot of guys are not comfortable sharing | | | | constantly complimenting you, notices when you have |
| their true feelings. Quite often when talking to friends I | | | | had your hair cut and talks softly and gently to you, it |
| know what they mean, but have to get them to say it | | | | seems as though he has found true love. A romantic |
| themselves. I find that especially between guys, a lot of | | | | evening out, surprise trip to Paris or bunch of flowers |
| men struggle to share. We talk about football, cars | | | | out of the blue are yet more signs that he is really |
| etc...but how things are really going with the girlfriend | | | | falling for you. |
| doesn't come up that often. It's only when things go | | | | 5) He Plans For The Future |
| wrong that most men will actually open up in a bid to | | | | When single, most men think about as far ahead as |
| solve the problem. | | | | the next cup of tea. If a man has found true love, |
| If your man is not sharing with you, it may be better | | | | things are different. He will start to worry more about |
| than you think - he is actually not sure how to handle | | | | work...maybe he is worrying about being able to |
| his emotions and express them to you. Be patient, he | | | | provide for you. Marriage, children, even talk of pets |
| will open up as the trust builds. Try to talk to him using | | | | are all flags that you have taken over the man's head; |
| open-ended questions, ask him about himself and be | | | | he is surely in love with you. |
| interested in his responses. | | | | Love is a slow-cook product. It always takes time, |
| 3) Does He Want To Help You Fix Things? | | | | even if it starts off as "love at first sight", to build up |
| Has your man straightened out that picture of Aunty | | | | trust and security. Be patient and you will find your true |
| Mabel on your wall? Did he bring around a screwdriver | | | | love one day. |
