Not every girl has a man’s best friend. The latter, for a long time, can sort through options that are more “suitable” in her opinion, until it finally realizes that he, her prince, was always there.
How can a girl understand in time that friendship has begun to develop into something more. Here are 10 arguments that a man has “tender feelings” for a “girlfriend”.
10. Always ready to help
Yes, good friends are always a sure aid in difficult situations. But this does not mean that they will daily sacrifice their time and plans for each of your calls. If a man is ready to listen to the “nagging” in the phone at 3 o’clock, comfort you after the next parting with the “narrowed” one, and come to you with a package of fruits during your illness, then you are definitely not indifferent to him. Pay attention if at the same time he breaks down from work, sacrifices his favorite sporting event or even an appointment.
And another important indicator - a man in love never requires services in return, unlike friends who always value their help and know how to use this “currency” later.
9. Often gives presents
As a matter of fact, such gestures are generally not peculiar to friends. Commemorative dates or holidays, rare surprises are one thing, but quite another - encouraging signs of attention, and even compliments in the form of chocolate, sweets and soft toys. Believe me, they look after you for sure! If a man in his gifts switches to more personal things, such as underwear, perfumes and jewelry, then they absolutely want to get closer to you not only mentally, but also physically. No man will spend money, and, most importantly, the strength to choose one or another thing, if a woman for him is simply an unremarkable asexual friend.
8. Pays for you
Friends are generally not obligated to pay for others, with the exception of a number of outstanding events. It is one thing to support you when you suddenly are aground. But the other thing is to gallantly get a wallet not only in transport, but also in cafes, cinema and supermarkets. The desire to take financial responsibility for the girl is a sign of a loving and mature man with whom life can really be connected. But if you do not have reciprocal feelings for the admirer, then it will be extremely shameless to operate it as an ATM. Do not let him pay if you are not ready to take relations to a new level. Or pay for it periodically too - that's what friends do.
7. Interested in personal life
A man, unlike a woman, does not like long conversations about feelings and assumptions about the motives of actions. They are logic and rational in nature, so everything is always clear and clear. If a guy is ready to spend hours putting up a “vest”, listening to your quarrels with your mom, disagreements with your friends, or about the guy’s betrayal, then he’s definitely not indifferent to you. It is psychologically difficult for a man to perceive the chaotic and completely illogical incoherent female speech, moreover accompanied by emotional hysteria or tears. Only a wise and loving man can endure this torture and be keenly interested in your personal life.
6. Looks for meetings
Of course, friends regularly gather in companies, but this is more often characteristic of women. They run to shopping together, hang on the phone for hours and even go to the toilet with companies. For men, friendship is, above all, periodic gatherings for the sake of making important decisions, so to speak, of activating the "collective mind." If a man is sincerely looking for a meeting with you for any reason, is ready to choose another topic or swimsuit in a huge shopping center, is ready to represent your couple at a girlfriend’s wedding, then friendship has long transformed into a romantic relationship. Pay attention to the reasons he chooses to meet. Does it always eat pizza for a football match?
5. Always forgives
Whatever a good friend is, but he will not let him climb on his head. Pride and self-esteem will not allow you to listen to insulting words and reprimands, and if you are wrong, then he will express his opinion directly and in person. Friends will not tolerate if you are regularly late for a long time, do not keep promises, speak bad words in the heat of the word, lie. And only a loving man, contrary to his desire to twist you into a "ram's horn," will patiently and silently listen to nasty things, forgiving. Moreover, he will manage to always be on your side in any conflicts, even if he knows the truth. There is no price for such a patient and wise man - take care of him and do not use sincere feelings.
4. Seeks privacy
Is it really necessary to explain that the desire to be together all the time is not normal for friendship? Friends like to hang out in companies and get out in people. Often a joint “hunt” for the opposite sex is arranged, for which time and place are specially selected. Or places of interest are visited, where there are also a lot of people. If a man all the time arranges “friendly” meetings in secluded places (for example, on the roof of a building, at your place or in his home, in a cozy romantic cafe), then he is clearly looking for a reason to move towards closer relations, and, possibly, to a frank conversation. Pay attention to how your "friend" behaves, being alone with you. Does his voice change, habitual posture. Or maybe for the sake of meeting you, he began to choke and shave perfectly?
3. Touch
The maximum touch of friends to each other is a wide hug with pats on the shoulder, a kiss on the cheek for goodbye or the signature “give me five”. Believe me, a friend will not sit so close to you that you can’t even put your hand between. After all, touching the hips and shoulders is something intimate. And to take you to the cinema, supposedly saving you from the "terrible" plot, your friend will not either. Pay attention to how often he seeks to acquire you. Perhaps this happens on every occasion, when you are sad, sad, scared. This means that a man subconsciously wants to protect you and protect you from troubles, to become that very “stone wall” that speaks of the maximum spiritual rapprochement. And if you are walking around the city by the pen, even not paying attention, then there has long been a stable relationship.
2. Does not show interest in other women
If earlier this "friend" had curiosity for other girls, but then it was sharply eradicated, then he has already decided. Of course, he may have such a streak in life when relationships are not needed at all - he wants to devote himself to a career, personal development, and a hobby. But for a long time the “diet” cannot continue, and not at all because of sexual needs. Every man wants to start a family, to be loved and desired, to return home in a cozy atmosphere for a delicious dinner. That is why the desire to devote the maximum of your time to you in the absence of interest in others says something.
1. Jealous
Jealousy is common among friends. Many people are offended when their best friends find other interesting interlocutors temporarily, or even enter into a relationship. But a man in love is jealous in a special way. More often than not, he just silently contemplates your “frank” behavior, listens to another hobby or to the merits of another man. In this case, you will feel how tension and discomfort are growing between you. Please note that after such a conversation, a man’s speech may become jerky and cold, or he will suddenly flare up and utter something like “how much more will you change them” from despair. Any unexpected reaction and change in behavior will indicate that the man has romantic feelings for you and it’s time to seriously think about your supposedly “friendship”.
The above arguments should be analyzed by both a woman and a man in order to have the opportunity to understand their feelings and make the right decision. Friendship, when one person is in love, turns into masochism and daily pain, so it is important to understand whether it is worthwhile to complete it or it is time to transfer it to a new spiritual level, which is love.
