March 19, 2013 4:10am CST
is there any way to understand the sign if somebody love us? I am always confused with the matter of love and I do not know exactly what a man do when is in love. I just think love means that what ever you want and like for yourself then prefer for the one you love and whatever you do not wish for yourself do not wish for your partner. that is all. what usually men do to show they love somebody? any way? any signs?

It is everywhere, even in his movements and talk, walk and everything. It can just be tested by observing how a mother deal with a child. She express, the love towards a young child. The same magnitude of love holding to a child of 10-12 and even to a grown up child. But the manner in which the mom express her love is different and it differs with age difference. That doesn't mean that the love towards a small child and bigger one is comparitively less or more. Simiarly, from my exprience, love is to be experience and there is no way it can be measured also. Some wife want it by expressing through words and act. Unfortunately, the poor h/b's won't understand the real fact and they may get misunderstood. However, all h/bs are not alike and not the same. If a wife really loves him, I think she gets back, though he never express. It may be an in-built nature and we can measure it through certain incidents or situations.

One of the thing that makes men rude is that when they believe that nobody cares for him and loves him. Men always believes that they are not getting fair treatment in life and some believe that they should not give fair treatment to others because they are not getting one. Next time look at your husband's eyes and say I love you to him and watch his reaction by looking at his eyes. May be he will be rebellious. Try doing the same thing after two days and I think most probably he will feel your love for him.

I just think how to look at his rabit eyes and say those words which i have kept opposite of that in my heart? I should be a very good actress to make a role like that? I will try it maybe... and I will let you know if it has any effects.. but whenever I say about love,, then love means only physical to him? is that for all men like that? because for me that is the last thing to think... talking kindly, spending time, laugh together.... there are so many things. but he jsut knows one thing when I use the word of love.... is he normal?

Well, that is too difficult to know men. God has made really strange human and for me men are the most strange and horror things in the world. I do not understand them at all. I mean, I understand men in my country much more but here a big confussion I have. I know people have diffrent way to show love and their own language, but... why people here are so senseless at home and for outsider they are like.... Well, I really wish, one day I go to sleep , in the morning I open my eyes and I see that at least there is no man in my life, I mean, it is a shame but it is a fact,,, I really wish him to die.

It is kinda hard to pinpoint exactly how you can say that a person is in love with you. If that person is something that you feel you are connected to or you feel that he is important to you, you would feel that there will always be something that will pull you close to that person.

It may be really be vague to understand how man truly feels love to another person. But, i think that you should not doubt your husband's love. He may not be that demonstrative as much as a woman can be, but just believe in what he says and listen to what your heart says.

I just do not understand what a love means for a man. my husband has done such of things to me that real enemy will not do that but he says he loves me too much and he is afraid if he lose me. I feel that is lie, becuase I can not love him and love is not one way. he also if he could love me, he could never do such of things to me. sometimes he do good also but what I see, is just .... I do not know may be he is real sycho and needs treatment.

Well I think most probably your husband somewhere loves you in his heart, but believes showing love is weak. I think you can change the character of your husband, but it might require patience. Say to himself daily that I love you and say loving words to him. Express your things you need in loving way like say you want chips and biscut for kids etc. First few times he will be rebellious, but be patient and still say I love you to him. Most times after few weeks he will change his character.

There are many different kinds of love. Love of a man for a woman is respecting her above no other. It is caring for her and being a friend when she feels she has lost all others. Fail, caring, respect, loyalty. All these show wholesome love.

I also agree with Celticegle that love for a man is respecting her and taking care of her and when men care for women then they became the real men.

I think every man differs and they all differ in expressing themselves, especially if they are in love. I think that some just follow what others, or what they think women normally expects from a guy during courtship, or when they are in a relationship. Sometimes, they can be insensible. They would not know exactly what is in your mind, or what you really want so don't stress yourself if you think they are not giving their best effort for the relationship. It may also differ depends on what they value in life. Like in my case, my husband view marriage as a sacred thing and will only the person he loves and want to spend the rest of his life with. Marriage proposal is sign that a guy loves you, BUT not in every case. Many men do not really value marriage nowadays, and many times, they just marry the girl knowing that sooner or later, they can just walk out the door and ask for divorce. I have a friend who was married for 6 years with two children. She later on find out that her husband has another wife in another province. What is more saddening is that he found out that she is not the legal wife because the man was already married before he married her. I really think that it is a case to case basis. Another sign that he maybe in love with you is that he makes every effort to be with you, BUT there are also cases that men who do it not because they are in love, but they have another intention which is sometimes for their own advantages and benefits. Another good sign that I really like about a man in love is that he sacrifices many things for you. Some of which, you may not actually notice or know. Sometimes, they make an effort to change themselves for you - to get your attention. They may try to be involved in sports, or activities that you like, just to get your attention or to be with you. This activity may be something that they do not like but will be willing to do it just to be near you. They may also buy a book and read it, just because they saw you reading it. This is actually a personal experience of mine which I only learn when we are married already. Some of their effort may be hidden, or you will not really notice. They say that you can also tell if the guy has feelings for your through body language.

I am sorry to hear about your situation. I do not really know what your husband did to make you hate him this much. Or what happened to him to treat you the way he did. I hope you guys could talk to each other and talk about the issues and problems you have. I learned in the past that many couples separated/divorced without really talking about the issues or problems they had in their relationship. Maybe because they think that the problem was too sensitive. Some just can't open it because they think it may offend the other party, or they are just too shy to say it. And some simply do not want to talk about it because it may hurt their pride. We all know how important communication is in every relationship, not only in marriage. I believe that a lasting marriage are for those who know how to talk about their problems openly and solve those problems with God's guidance. I think that it is not only about how we feel, or how our partners feel about the relationship. We should also think about how God feels about it.

once a man is in love he will provide and protect you. He will show you off to his friends, he is serious about you and willing to commit. A man whose in love and willing to do anything for you to make you happy, wont be scared of commiting with you. But if that man hasnt satisfied of what he achieve in life to protect and provide you, he'll get scared to commit becuase he thinks he might not able to give the things you and the kids want. He will not feel like a man. But anyway if the man is in love he'll do anything to make you happy. Xx

Its really hard to tell or describe in general how men act when they are in love. But if you will ask me, men are in love when they act naturally towards their partner. Also, they are in love if they cannot explain why they are in love :)

I also think men look for partner who feels them happy and they look for real love and most times they do not reveal if he is having crush or love or infatuation unless he is 100% sure that the girl do love them.

A man who loves you will always find ways to be with you as much as possible. This means he might find a reason to bump into you during lunch hour, or accidentally lost his watch and doesn't know the time unless you have the pity to tell him. He will find 1001 ways to meet you and when he is talking to you his eyes would become gleaming. Try to learn his body language and you might recognize the signs that he is in love with you. If a man doesn't love you, he will never have any reasons to be with you. So if you invite him for a lunch he might decline your offer. If you bump into him somewhere and he didn't look delighted, this is another sign that the man doesn't love you.

Love is complicated somtimes. love yourself first. I think u can love more than one person. there are different kinds of love...but the love of men, since no one man is the same, is different. Some men, like my husband, has a strange way of showing me love. Im still not used to it even after 10 years together and i dont even try to think about it. Bottom line is this: different men show different ways of love. I think the hard part is not confusing it with some other emotion like puppy love aka teenage love lol!

I have experienced that only once, but I was too young to understand that back then.He was protective of me and helpful all the time.Tender smile,caring look,soft voice.He was rude with other people sometimes, but never with me.I felt special but I didn't know this was love.He loved me the way I was.He loved me with that acne face,messy hair and stupid skirts.I rejected him and it was the greatest mistake of my life.I sometimes cry when I remember him.

I believe that true love is not coming to hand, love means with all of those missing. maybe if i was not married to this man, i could have the same feeling as you have for remembering him but now things are opposite.

First of all, I want to make it clear that love is a feeling and a feeling can only be touched through a feeling. Love is like hanging in between the stars not dwelling on the Earth. It's a divine feeling which occur when you have real grace of God. When someone is in love, he starts thinking about that person so frequently even when he is doing some serious work. He cares for her more than anything else. He must enjoy the company of her. He looks around and he finds only one thing that is his beloved, who is only a comfort for his pitiable condition of mind. Thus we can say when someone is in love he is just senseless with only one sense that just want to behold his beloved's beautiful eyes.

eheh of course every man is different. It depends much from the personality. Surely you can notice when a man is interested in a girl when he trates her differently from others. If he is romantic (maybe there are really few like this nowdays) he may say good things to you and do little things which show appreciation. Then when has a interovert personality is more harder to discover it. Also, not all men are interested in love, but some just in adventures.. Sorry for my honesty but this is pure reality. So if you want an advice, watch out very well what are the true intentions of a man, before involving too much

Some men do love or show interest only for timepass and make sure that the person really loves you. The best thing to know is to show interest in him and most probably if he is interested in you, he will show more interest. You can ask his mobile number and can have a casual chat with him. First two days just call and say how are you and what are you doing, etc. Then slowly talk more to him. If he is interested he will try to return the call or talk more to you. There is nothing known as first love as far as I know for men. Most of them are first time is attracted or interested and not fallen in love. Men fall in love with a woman only after many sights and after knowing that she makes him feel happy and comfortable and loved.

There is no single sign letting you know whether a man is in love or not yet, since there are so many different type of men living on earth; each one has his own signature. Some may turn into extremely friendly and happy guy the whole time, while another may show sign of exuberant and in jubilate mood every day during the period he is in love, another may smile and laugh whole day in whatever conversation he is engaging in, no sign of anger even face provocation, some may even exhibit the combination of various behaviors mentioned above, in conclusion, there is no one definitive sign you can tell when a man is in love.

As a man, when I'm in love I act differently. And by differently I mean... stupid. I talk loads of crap all the time, cant even make sentences, and feel so happy. Like the world makes sense. My eyes light up. I dont know, its kind of hard to explain.

well, for some men it is difficult to show they are in love, maybe their ego is stoping them to show their feeling.
