How Do You Know You Love Him: 21 Signs You Have Fallen For Him

Lasting Love is the result of a powerful strategy. Ready to get started? Click here to learn the strategy (it's free)

So you’ve been seeing this guy for a few weeks or months, and you’ve got one word on your mind: LOVE. But…how do you know you love him? Is it just infatuation? Lust? Hormones? Or is this actually turning into something real?

woman's heart

How do you know you love him? Pay attention to the signs.

You find yourself singing Whitney Houston’s old gem, How Will I Know, in the shower:

There’s a boy I know, he’s the one I dream of 
Looks into my eyes, takes me to the clouds above 
Ooh I lose control, can’t seem to get enough
When I wake from dreaming, tell me is it really love

Okay, that’s super cheesy, but my point is: the question “how do I know if I love him?” is eating at your brain. So allow me to help you get to the bottom of this all-important mystery.

How do you know you love him? The following are signs you’re in love with him, so if any (or all) are true, then you probably do!

1. You Talk About The Future With Him

Next Halloween, we should do a couple’s costume.

Hey, do you wanna take a three-week road trip in the spring?

Our kids would be so damn cute!

Topics like these come up with your boyfriend fairly regularly, and he doesn’t run screaming. Neither do you. Huh.

The thought of a future with this guy is something you’re starting to take for granted as a given, which is a pretty good sign you’re in love with him or are falling in love with him.

2. Everything Reminds You of Him


You’re eating a peanut butter sandwich: This sandwich reminds me of Tommy. He eats peanut butter.

You put on your favorite green shirt: I wore this three days after my first date with Tommy.

You go out for tacos every Tuesday: Tacos start with the letter T! Just like Tommy!

These examples are a bit ridiculous, but they illustrate a point: if you have Tommy (or whatever your guy’s name is) on the brain 24/7, there’s a good chance you’re in love.

And this isn’t just me saying that when things remind you of him, it means you love him: Helen Fisher, an anthropologist at Rutgers University and a leading expert on the biological basis of love, found that people in love focused on trivial events and objects that reminded them about the objects of their affection. Likely, she surmised, this was due to elevated levels of central dopamine and a spike in central norepinephrine.

So if every little thing makes you think of your sweetie…yea, it could be love.

3. You Find Yourself Always Talking About Him

girlfriends

Ask your girlfriends how much you talk about your guy.

You’re kinda disgusted with yourself. You’ve become that girl. The girl (woman, really) who talks incessantly about her man.

Tommy and I were at IKEA the other day…

Tommy loved that recipe. I made it for him this weekend.

I’ll ask Tommy what he thinks about that.

Thing is…you can’t help yourself! It seems like his name falls out of your mouth without you even meaning it to. You try to curb mentions of him to keep your friends from murdering you…but it’s a challenge. How do you know you love him? Ask your friends how many times you’ve said his name in the last hour!

4. You Re-Read His Text Messages & Scroll Through His Photos

It’s the weekend and you’re ready to curl up on the couch for a good read. But instead of picking up that memoir that’s gathering dust on the coffee table…you grab your phone.

You love reading through your past texts with your man. It’s like reading a romance novel. You love scrolling back a mile to when you first started texting to see what the conversation was like way back when. You enjoy seeing when he started sending that kiss-blowing emoji your way.

And while no one else will join you in watching a slideshow of Tommy Pics, you love nothing more than to flick through your photos to gaze adoringly at his face. Here’s Tommy drinking a glass boot of beer. Here’s a selfie of the two of you on the beach at sunset. Here’s Tommy sleeping (er…we might need to have a different conversation if you have one of these!).

And if you wonder why reading these texts and looking at these photos feels so good…science shows that when people look at photos of loved ones, there’s an increase in dopamine (that feel-good drug) in the brain.

So…yea. This is your brain on Tommy.

5. It Never Feels Like You’re Wasting Time With Him

How do you know you love him? Here’s another clue: every moment you spend with your guy feels significant…even if it wouldn’t normally. Maybe in your past life, you wouldn’t have been caught dead staying in on a Friday night and Netflix bingeing with a boyfriend…but now it seems like a fantastic way to cuddle up to the man that you adore.

Even watching him fix his car or play rugby with the boys feels like a good investment of your time. Never a dull moment and all of that.

6. You’re Constantly Curious About Him

couple leaping

Being in love means constantly being curious about your man.

While you went through all the what do you do/tell me about your family/what are your pet peeves conversations early on in dating this guy, you’re still surprised to keep finding out little nuggets about him.

To me, this is the good stuff: all those thousands of little data points that help you really get to know someone you care about.

You find out he’s allergic to clams. That he makes a whimpering sound when he’s having a nightmare. That he’s oddly afraid of cats. That his dream career would be a sushi chef. None of these are very important in the grander scheme of things, but you find them fascinating, and they draw you closer to him.

7. You’re Comfortable With Making Little Sacrifices For Him

If your friends had told you a year ago that you would be waking up at 5 am every Saturday to go for a three-mile hike, you would have said they were insane. Yet here you are, training for a 5K with good ole Tommy.

Or maybe you quit drinking because he can’t drink. Eat vegan because he’s vegan. Whatever the sacrifice you’re making, you’re happy to do it…because you probably love him.

You’re happy to make these little compromises (and he does the same for you) because you know that they’re part of what makes for a happy relationship.

Just a note here: small sacrifices like the examples I gave above are fine, but know where to draw the line. If he’s asking something of you that makes you truly uncomfortable, like lying for him, know that this isn’t love.

No man who loves you would ask you to compromise your integrity for him.

8. You Feel Safe When You’re Around Him

When a man is open and communicative, when he’s loyal and supportive, a woman feels emotionally safe with him. You may have been scarred in the past in a long relationship or even a marriage, so trust and feeling secure are even more important to you now.

Ask yourself: does he make you feel safe, both physically and emotionally? Do you feel like he is your protector, both of your physical wellbeing and your heart? Would he do anything to keep you safe? If so, congrats. You’ve got a good guy on your hands.

9. You Notice Things That You Know He’d Love

woman shopping

When you’re out shopping, do you see and buy things your boyfriend would like?

While you’re at the grocery store, you see the new Peeps Oreos and pick up a pack because your boyfriend loves all things Peep-related. Later that night, you tell him about a concert you saw an ad for online; it’s his favorite band.

It’s like you’re tuned into things that you know he’d appreciate, and it feels kinda awesome.

Again, it’s often not the enormous things that give signs you’re falling in love; it can be the smallest details like these.

10. You Lose Track of Time

One minute it’s Friday evening and you’re headed over to his house to spend the weekend together. You blink, and it’s already Sunday night. Where did time go??

Time flies when you’re in love. It can feel like there’s never enough time to soak up all of his energy, and you’re left wanting more. If only you could clone yourself so that you could both go to work and handle other aspects of your life…and spend 24/7 with him!

11. You Have More Energy

Since you started spending time with this man, you’ve felt powerful and full of energy…like you could conquer any challenge…climb any mountain.

It’s been good for other aspects of your life. Maybe you’re killing it at work, and your boss has given you a pat on the back for all your hard work. You’re working out more, and are in the best shape of your life.

The movie Conspiracy Theory might seem a strange place to find inspiration here, but read this quote:

Love gives you wings. It makes you fly. I don’t even call it love. I call it Geronimo. When you’re in love, you’ll jump right from the top of the Empire State and you won’t care, screaming “Geronimo” the whole way down. I love her so bad, I just… whoa, she wrecks me. I’d die for her.

You don’t really have this invincible I-can-do-anything feeling when you’re just in like. There’s something magical that happens when you start to fall in love that just amplifies everything you do. You are more confident. Heck, you might even be smarter. There should be a scientific study on the IQ of people in love!

12. The World Seems Brighter

dancing woman

Being in love makes everything more vivid.

It’s like you upgraded from a 1950s tv to the latest and greatest 4HD tv. Everything is just…tuned up. You notice everything. The birds tweeting in the morning. The vivid colors of a sunrise. Science shows that your senses are amplified when you’re in love, so if everything’s in Technicolor lately, this is another of the signs you’re in love with him. Enjoy it!

If you’re looking for how to know you love him, just pay attention to the world around you and see if it seems more amplified than normal.

13. You Even Love His Faults

He chews with his mouth open. He farts in his sleep. He leaves his underwear in the middle of the floor. Any little quirk that drove you insane with past boyfriends is somehow…cute with this guy.

What gives? Have you lowered your standards??

No, my dear. This is one of the signs you’re in love with him.

You’ve realized on some level that these flaws are so unimportant in the grand scheme of things. That if he treats you well, it doesn’t matter that he leaves the toilet seat up. And accepting your partner’s flaws is an excellent sign of a long and happy relationship together.

14. You Can Talk to Him About ANYTHING

Not that you have many secrets…but there are a few things that you’ve never talked to anyone about. Maybe you were too embarrassed or didn’t have anyone you felt comfortable with sharing these things. But this guy? He’s different. You can tell him absolutely anything. No judgment. Nothing but support.

You’ve opened up to him in a way that frankly surprises you a little, and it feels pretty good.

Stop for a moment and realize how lucky you are to have found someone who you can trust enough to share your deepest, darkest secrets and thoughts with. Not everyone gets that.  How do you know you love him? You hold nothing back.

15. You Can’t Concentrate on Anything

distracted woman

A woman in love can’t focus on anything but the object of her affections.

You’re not hungry. You can’t focus at work. When your friends talk to you, you can’t for the life of you focus on what they’re saying. You’ve been bitten by the lovebug, and one of the side effects is the inability to concentrate on anything…other than his handsome face.

It doesn’t matter if you’re 16 or 60. This is a common sign you’re in love with him.

Just remember though: if you put all your attention on him, it may overwhelm him. Likely he was initially attracted to you because of your well-rounded interests and general kick-assedness. Don’t give it all up to focus on the male. Keep on doing all the important things in your life. This lack of focus will eventually lessen.

16. You Relive Your Highlights Reel

As you fall asleep at night, you play a movie in your head. Tonight’s showing might be that romantic walk on the beach you had last weekend…

Editor’s note: Ready to attract love with a proven strategy? Watch this free video to learn the 7 powerful steps

Or the mind-blowing sex you had last night…

Or the first time you kissed.

Netflix has nothing on the movies in your head. A woman in love often treasures the memories of her man — especially early in the relationship. Just don’t put so much attention on the past that you’re not fully present because there’s a lot of magic that happens in the moment when you fall in love.

17. You Share His Emotions

When he comes home from work, exuberant after an amazing win, you’re filled with delight. When he’s depressed that his dog died, you’re sad too. It seems like whatever he’s feeling, you feel. Could it be love?

When we care deeply about someone, we celebrate their wins and share their losses. It’s part of being a couple. So yes, if you feel like there’s a string tied from his heart to yours, then it very likely is one of the signs you’re falling in love…or are already there.

18. You Think About Introducing Him To Your Family

woman and family

You’re ready for him to meet those that are important to you.

If you’ve been divorced and have kids, you probably decided early on that you wouldn’t introduce any man to your kids until you were in love. And now…you’re starting to think it’s time to make the introduction.

If that’s not the case, it might be your parents that you’re eager to introduce to your boyfriend.

Either way, it’s a big step, since presumably, your family will assume things are serious if they get to meet this guy. They’re right!

19. You Want to Let Him Into Your World

It’s been so long since someone really “saw” you, meaning they were invested in really knowing all of you, the good and the bad. You want to show this guy the books you read. Let him listen to the nerdy Lawrence Welk music you love. See you in your furry teddy bear pjs.

When you first start dating, you tend to put your best foot forward and sometimes cover up the flaws. But you’re so secure with your boyfriend that you want him to see it all. Because to know all of you is to love you…or at least you hope.

20. You’re Not Worried About Scaring Him Off

In the past, you’ve tiptoed around men you dated. Maybe you didn’t give them your full sassy personality right away because it’s been known to scare men off.

But just like you’ve embraced his quirks, you know you can trust him to be okay with yours. You’re not worried about scaring him off. You’re confident that this one is here to stay, and that feels pretty damn amazing.

21. He is Your Go-To Person

woman hugging

He’s the one you know you can rely on.

When you’re filling out paperwork at the doctor’s office and it asks for an emergency contact, your boyfriend is the first person that comes to mind.

When your car breaks down, you’re late for work, and you spill coffee all over you…he’s the one you call crying.

If there is an emergency or you just feel vulnerable, this man is the first person you turn to for support. And that’s how it should be when you’re in love.

Conclusion: How Do You Know You Love Him? You Just Do.

Be honest: you didn’t really need me to answer the question how do you know you love him. You already knew you did, but you wanted evidence.

Now you have it. And now that you’re ready to admit that you love this guy, consider your next step.

Obviously, you’d like him to love you back, but until you’re sure that he does, you may be nervous about having more feelings for him than he does you.

I know you want to shout I love you from the rooftops, but I encourage you to take your time. Get used to the idea of being in love, either for the first time or again, and let those feelings settle. Right now everything is like you’re on steroids. Intense. But as time passes, you and your heart will calm down a little.

But then…how do you know he loves you?

Give him time to catch up. If it’s meant to be, he will. Let him be the one to come to you and profess his love. From there, life gets even more interesting!

Really? Because more than half of those things you gurus are always telling women are things we SHOULDN’T do. Like making sacrifices for him, thinking about him all the time blah blah blah. When are you guys going to start telling men to stop being assholes, to step up and follow thru with actions, not just say things because they sound good in the moment? When are you going to tell them that they need to grow up and start playing games? I am sick of all this double standard crap of telling women all the things we do wrong,… Read more »

Plus the sacrifices are never big. You HAVE to make sacrifices in ANY relationship. Sorry, but you do. And if men arent following through with things or are a**holes to you, they’re ni good for you.

You clearly did not read this article correctly. This isn’t about what women do right or wrong. This article is answering the question of whether or not you love the person you are with. It’s informing us, the readers, that the things we **unintentionally** do for that special someone, may be done because we are in love with them. When the article mentions making sacrifices for him, it isn’t saying DO do that. It even warns you to know when to draw the line. It also describes the sacrifices as LITTLE compromises….

Most of that stuff defines lust, not love. When you can love someone without having to input “I” or “me” into your reasons, then its love. Dont love someone because of how they make you feel, feelings fade. Love someone because of who they are, because they are your equal regardless of your differences. Just my 2 cents.

Ok so this is going to sound completely weird and crazy but i’m in love with a dead person specifically 60s batman actor Adam west. I know your probably like what the heck is she talking about but it’s true. Since the summer of 2017 actually. Such a charming man who is sadly not alive anymore but was so batty * pun intended* so yeah sorta crazy but there are more crazy out there I’m sure.

You are 100% correct. It sounds completely weird and crazy. Adam West died in the summer of 2017, right near the beginning of it. So, if you were his nurse or something like that, and, that’s when you spent time with him and got to know him, then, I guess what you are talking about could be a possibility. But, dead people do not exist, except in memory. There are no ghosts. Perhaps you are being stalked by a demon who is pretending to be Adam West. Perhaps, you need your hormone levels, vitamin and mineral balance, etc. checked as… Read more »

No, you are not a bad person “confused broken girl”. You always have to follow your heart. Your ex would have left you for the person he wanted to be with. You’re young, explore the world and don’t let any man hold you back.

Yeah, kind of. Not for being young and getting to know someone and trying to figure things out. No. But, the way you handled it with your boyfriend was pretty wrong and it sounds like you kept it wrong even after you and he were no longer together. It doesn’t make you the worst person. But, you wouldn’t have liked it if your roles were reversed, now, would you have? If you have to ask if you are a bad person for what you did, you probably already know that you did the wrong thing.

Yes. When you feel like you know him well enough and that you need him. Not just like him, find him hot, enjoy his company, laugh at his jokes. When he makes you want to be a better person, at least in small ways. When you are not comparing him to others. When he is wanted and appreciated in a special way, not just for what he makes you feel like. When you respect him. When you want to change something about him, not because of a defect in him, but, to draw him closer to you. And, to let… Read more »

I think I love this boy named Nas. I have known him for almost 5 years. We’ve been talking for about 2 weeks now. But I always had a crush on him. I even fell in love with him. And I think I still am. I hope he feels the same way too. 🙂

Roughly 45 minutes after I read this and identified with all of it, we had a small fight. Afterward, he told me he loved me for the first time. Don’t ever give up!!

I know what you’re talking about. He’s 5 years younger than and in love with me. But I’m not sure I feel it the same. I really like him so much, love doing things together, I think about him all the time and so on. But I’m also confused if it’s really love what I feel…

Good gracious! Admittedly, I skimmed over some of this. Mostly, because, I recognized within me some of the things metioned, so quickly, I didn’t need to read it all. But, even so, I read enough to know that it is not all about lust or all about telling women how wrong they are, or, telling men to run a game on the women. So, I don’t know what some people are talking about, at all. I mean, I do know what they are talking about, in the sense that I have certainly heard of double-standards, game playing, men who want… Read more »

I fought so hard not to fall in love with this guy,I tried all I could but ended up falling deeply for him but I am not sure of his feelings for me.I feel I am not his type of guy because we’ve dated for four months before seeing each other.I can’t do anything without thinking about him and I can’t wait for him to tell me he loves ,I guess that will be the happiest day of my life.I love you to the moon and back my Cuddle Bear.

i sorta came to this page knowing the answer, but after suffering my family’s reactions to him, they go so quiet, i’ve told them i love him, they were a bit cold about it, made me need confirmation. I know how i feel about him. I loved his voice and his music 20 years ago but had crushes on other people, (i was 18, he was about 40), i was 18 when i first saw his face, all i had was a cassette with his facial profile and never really saw how beautiful he was), i get a constant feeling… Read more »

I am really in love with this guy we met back in 2013 when I was in form 2. It was q boarding school and he liked me. We used to meet at odd hours and make some stupid gay love. After school we parted ways n I continued with my normal straight life. Now during this outbreak of Corona virus I happened to go to upcountry and his home isn’t that much far. I wouldn’t think twice to spend the little cash I have with him. i really don’t know if he feels the same for me but i… Read more »

I “know” that I love him. I love the way he thinks of me and shows me without anyone telling him too. He isn’t scared to tell me how he feels even if I don’t like it. He has a faithful heart and would “give you the shirt off of his back” if you treat him good. He makes me laugh to the point when we are joking around I’m almost in tears at times. He is an amazing father to his daughter and would be good to my kids. He is driven in life and wants me too succeed.… Read more »

I love him but we had a toxic relationship. I wished things worked out but by the things that happen I knew he wasn’t the guy for me. I need a man that’ll stick up for me regardless of anything. We was together for two years and he fought to get me back but turns out he wanted revenge… For something he could’ve avoided.

Stared at me, whn i look he soon looks away, he introduced me to his family, got friends with my family, and told me a romantic story to me 1 day, teases me,asks questions, always stares at my face for like 35 mins whn beside me! n he knows that i knew that he is staring!!!

I think if he is being rude then nice the creepy staring, he is not looking at you, but only at your body. He is nice because he wants it but then when you decide to emotionally open up to him he gets rude and pushes you away. If you really love him but he doesn’t want to change his ways I think you should try finding another boy. If you were really meant to be, try to ask him to actually focus on you and not your body. If he does, you two are truly meant to be.

I really love this guy I do everything for him in my power and all the things listed above is the same with my feelings for him but now am feeling somehow but I know I love him… feeling like my love for him might die something is telling me so in my mind but I really love being around him I don’t know what happening just having this fear… Something is definitely wrong with me and the worst part is that no other guy in mind aside him

I saw him for the first time at my cousin’s engagement last year. He’s my sister-in-law’s cousin. The first time I saw I never thought I would fall so hard for him, we would throw glances at each other but didn’t make anything obvious. After the engagement was over I looked back, hoping I would see him one last time. And there he was, both of us had our final eye contact before I left to go back home. He was on my mind the entire way I was heading back, I kept replaying those reels in my mind. Fast-forward… Read more »
