Let me break it down for ya:
1. You're Invested in His Happiness
You're really in love when you're willing to put his happiness above your own, like help him to get over a bad day.
2. You Want him to Branch Out
That means you want him to find his own challenges and grow as a person. If you just want him to stay the same and not have any cool adventures, it's not love.
3. You're Cool With his Differences
Sure, if he's a horrible dresser or he could use some kissing tips, obviously you'll want to change that. But if you're okay knowing that he's obsessed with one and you have different views and can look beyond it, that's love.
4. You Can Admit Your Shortcomings...
Not good enough to acknowledge that you have a weak area or two. But if you can admit it to your guy and actually want to work on them (starting to be on time for things, picking your battles, etc.), you're golden.
5. You're Into All of Him
In the beginning of a relationship, you're almost always crazy-hot for each other. But if you're just as hot for him even after you know about his weird foot rash, that's a good sign.
6. You Could See Yourself Having Kids With him
Okay, not everyone wants to have kids, and we get that. If you have thought about having a family…someday, and suddenly find yourself thinking about what your kids would look like or how he'd be as a father, you're definitely hooked.
