12. When He/She Understands

No matter what, does your partner always try to see your side of things? When he/she sees you upset and crying about something, do they try to understand and calm you down to make you feel better. This is a sign that they love you.

11. They Show You

Some people, especially men have trouble expressing their feelings with words. So, sometimes, you just have to watch the way they act around you. Understanding you and taking you to dinner because you have had a long day is a sure sign.

10. They Listen

When you talk, do they listen to you? Do they always look interested in what you have to say? Or do they have the television going while you are trying to listen? If they listen to what you have to say and always look interested in you, then it may be good timing.

9. They’re Always Happy around You

Do they smile? Laugh? Do they get excited when you are around and would rather spend time with you over their friends? Then this is a good sign that they love you too.

If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.

8. Compliments

Whenever you change something about your appearance, do they notice and compliment you? Do they tell you how good you look, even when they catch you at 4am after waking up?

7. Baby You when You’re Sick

Do they care that you are ill and goes out of their way to baby you? If the answer is yes, then we’re pretty sure you have something good going for you.

6. The Family and Friends like You

If the circle of friends like you, then this is a good sign. You can usually tell how a person feels from the way the circle of friends and family treat you.

5. They Appreciate You

If they tell you how proud they are of the achievements you have made and brags about you to the friends and family, then this is a lovely signal. It is a sign of deep appreciation of you.

4. Your Opinion Counts

Asking your opinion and advice is wonderful news. This means he or she cares about what you think and obviously plans on having you around for awhile.

3. They Are Interested in What You Want Too

You both are sitting down watching television and you would like to watch House while he wants to Watch the gaming channel. If they let you watch your show without grudging over it, then it is because they want you to be happy. If they sit through that show with you, then they deserve to have some extra points!

2. They Make You Feel Special

Do they bring you flowers and show that they really care about you? If so, then this one sounds like a keeper.

1. When He/She Says I Love You

The right time to say I love you is definitely when they speak those three words before you!

Finding the right time to say I love you can be tough, but sometimes, you can’t fight back your feelings and it just pops out of your mouth. If this happens, then it is your heart telling you that it is time to say it and you should listen to that heart. Have you ever been let down after you spoke those three words?
