3. He thinks you’re special and unique, down to every last little quirk.Does he tell you he likes the way you adjust your hair, or smile when you say you can’t stand the color green? When a man’s in love, he thinks his partner is like no one else in the world. Psychologically, this special focus on you is linked to elevated dopamine levels in the brain. When he’s in love, you’re literally on his mind.
- Dopamine is also associated with a desire for monogamy and an inability to feel romantic passion for someone other than your own partner.
4. He believes in you more than you believe in yourself sometimes.Is your man always picking you up when you’re down, or forgiving you for your shortcomings? A man with love on the brain sees the best in his partner, and he values you knowing your value, too. He’ll think you can accomplish anything because you’re special. The deeper his feelings, the less wrong you’re able to do in his eyes.
- He’ll always be proud of you, whether you’re experiencing huge successes or just navigating the small things in life.
- This doesn’t mean he has to put you on a pedestal. Instead, he’ll always find the best interpretation of your characteristics. For example, he wouldn’t think you’re a bad morning person if you’re irritable when the alarm clock goes off. Maybe you just didn’t sleep well!
