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.

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.

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.
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?

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.
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.

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.
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.
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!
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.
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?
