He refers to third parties trying to interfere in the relationship as parasites and goes on and on about how unforgivable cheating is.

When you’re out together, he’s your rock and will never make you feel alone or stupid. He will, however, let you know he disagrees with you in private (see, he’s honest).

reema: thanx very much sheila. that's what exactly am waiting for...that kind of advice...thanx a lot..
jessica: wow! i read this thinking that it was going to be another one of those ridiculous things you read online about how to tell that youre in love, but i read this and every single one is dead on! Love it! this really helped me see what i have in front of me and what i have to look forward to! my new bf is all of these!!
Jenna: my boyfriend and I broke up 2 weeks ago but we've still been hanging out. Then he liked another girl and then on Thursday last week he told me he was stupid and that he really didn't like her and he's been kissing me and calling me baby and telling me he loves me and what not. Yesterday we hung out and everything was back to normal. He gave me a kiss, we did some things, we watched TV and cuddled, he kept asking to cuddle with me and kept kissing me. He keeps telling me that we're gonna get back together just to give it time, and it's already been 2 weeks. Last night I told him I wanted an answer by the time I leave. Well I kept asking him for an answer and he kept saying I don't know. Then he told me "It will most likely be a yes, don't worry". Well I'm tired of waiting. I'm tired of dreading over the fact that I'm wasting my time when I could be moving on. I want to be with him because this is my first love, the guy I lost my virginity too, I'm close with his family, we dated for 1 year and 4 months, but I don't want to waste anymore time. I want an answer TODAY. What should I tell him? I'm gonna call him later. He told me last night we would text about it and when I kept asking for an answer he kept saying "I can't come up with an answer right now" It's almost been 3 weeks, he's had plenty of time to think. So what should I tell him when we're on the phone?
