5. He’s aware

Although you should never want to change your partner, it’s perfectly acceptable to want to influence him. In fact, studies show that couples are happiest when men allow themselves to be influenced by their significant others. It’s been demonstrated that women show more of a willingness to be influenced, but it’s also important for men to show that they’re willing to contribute to the emotional well-being of their partner.

6. He values chemistry

You’ve no doubt been on a date with a guy who had a nice personality and was even attractive, but ultimately there just wasn’t the right chemistry. When it comes down to it, you need to seek out a guy with who you feel at ease talking to, have interests in common, and who makes you feel energized when you meet with them. These are the important qualities that allow you to establish the kind of deep connection required for a lasting relationship.

7. He has emotional presence

Have you ever met up with a guy who spent more time looking through his smartphone than talking to you? This is a sure sign that a relationship doesn’t stand a chance. Just as you should be emotionally present when he’s doing the talking, you should also expect him to do the same. Although the same lines, being there for somebody means messaging them or answering their call as soon as is reasonably possible, or at least let them know ahead of time that you might not be available to respond right away.
