Signs He is in Love

John and Bips were friends since childhood. They first met each other at preschool and since then, were inseparable throughout their school days. Hanging out on weekends, doing each other's homework, playing pranks on people, escaping in the nick of time, spending the entire evening laughing at their own antics...They were best buddies in the truest sense of the term. However, things took a new turn after Bips turned sixteen. She noticed that there was a noticeable change in John's behavior towards her. He was no longer her back-slapping buddy from childhood. Instead he now seemed a chivalrous young man, who led her by the hand while crossing a road and held the door open for her when they walked into a coffee shop. Initially she couldn't understand what was happening. Slowly it all began to make sense. John was falling in love with her...

Are you a woman who identifies with the above story? Are you also dating a guy who you know likes you, but you feel there's more to it than what actually meets the eye? So how do you know if and when 'like' has turned into 'love'?

Signs, dear lady, signs! You need to watch out for signs! Positive signs, negative signs, explicit signs, hidden signs, all sorts of signs! Signs, signs, signs. By the way, do you even have the slightest idea of what 'signs' am I referring to? No, not the traffic signs on the freeway! Signs he is in love with you! In case you didn't know (and it is highly improbable that being a woman you wouldn't know), while in the process of falling in love, a man will unknowingly give out a dime a dozen signs that he is in love with you. All you need to do is know what those signs are and watch out for them. Here's how to do that.

Signs He is in Love With You
Men are horrible at communication, and even more so when it comes to any sort of communication that is remotely related to romance. The best way for you to know whether your guy has fallen head over heels in love with you, is by observing his behavior, how he treats you in front of his friends and in public, the kind of stuff that he wants to talk to you about, the type of things he gifts you, etc. Here are the different signs that you should be on the lookout for:

• He takes you out for a dinner date to the most romantic restaurant in town, and walks you home in spite of the fact that his house is located at the opposite end of the town. Well, it's a clear sign he is falling in love with you.
• You are interested in dinosaurs, museums and are keen on taking him along for a special Jurassic Park exhibition on Saturday afternoon. However, Saturday noon happens to be the time when he and his buddies get together for their weekly game of soccer. If he chooses the museum over soccer, that's a huge sign in itself! Need I say more?
• You guys decide to watch a movie at home. You wanna watch Notting Hill while he's hellbent on Die Hard. If he graciously agrees and you end up snuggling together on the couch, watching Hugh and Julia's heartwarming romance, then you know that he is seriously falling for you!
• You guys are hanging out at the mall and you happen to run into a few of his mates. If he slips his hand around your waist and warmly introduces you to them, well, you know for sure that you're the apple of his eye!
• Your guy is seriously in love with you if:
  • he sends you your favorite flowers and starts coming up with lovey-dovey romantic dinner ideas
  • you both are walking together and he gently touches your hand with his fingers and runs them lovingly across the length of your arm
  • you catch him looking into your eyes in a lost, dreamy manner on many an occasion
  • you cook roasted lemon garlic broccoli for him, which he eats heartily as if it were the best dish in the whole world (in spite of the fact that he hates broccoli)
  • he kisses you softly, passionately and whispers sweet nothings in your ear
  • he lets you have the TV remote on a Friday night.
• If you find your guy suddenly asking you about your idea of a perfect wedding (or honeymoon!), then you better keep your eyes awake and your ears open, because in all probability, there could be a wedding proposal happening soon!

So if you're still uncertain whether your man loves you or simply likes you, remember - all you need to do is watch out for the signs...signs he is in love with you!
