Consider it half full or half empty?
You’ve got butterflies, good conversation, maybe even great sex, but sometimes it can be difficult to be sure if it’s love. How do you decipher whether the feeling in the pit of your stomach is the nervous quivering of anticipation or yesterday's lunch?

■Introduce you to his family
■Make plans for the future (near and far)
■Do things outside of his “box” with you
■Share his secrets and his dreams for the future with you
■Worry about impressing your friends

■Come right over when you ask him to √
■Try to do things that comfort you or relieve some of your stress (like surprise you with dinner on a night you are working, rub your feet, or ask about your day)√
■ Appreciate and reciprocate your feelings and your actions like giving you a massage after he gets one from you, doing the dishes after dinner, or sending you a gift √

What she’ll do:
