If you think you have found one of the good ones, keep hold of him! But before you begin to celebrate, make sure that he is treating you the five ways a man should.

Encourages Personal Growth

While it’s great to grow as a couple, a good boyfriend will also be supportive of your dreams and wants you to be the best person you can be. He knows this is essential for the relationship because when you both are at your best; the relationship can be at its healthiest. Showing support for your significant other gives them self-confidence to achieve their goals, while at the same time giving you each space to seek out your own interests outside of the relationship. When you both come back together, it creates a power couple that no one can break down! Assurance in yourself as a person is something your boyfriend should want you to have. He should want you to be independent and strong, so that he is an added benefit to your life, instead of filling a hole.

Aware of Your Emotions

Does your guy really work hard to understand where you are coming from and why you feel the way you do? If so, he is showing signs of being emotionally mature. A man should always want to respect your feelings and seek to understand them, even if he doesn’t always agree. By being in touch with whom you are and your emotions, he will be able to pick up signals when you are not doing well. For example, you may always call your mom at the same time each night. If you don’t make that normal phone call and are acting depressed one day, a good boyfriend would be aware that there was a shift in your normal persona. While he may not be able to always guess what is wrong with you, he is aware of your emotional changes and can act accordingly.
