10 Psychological Tips to Know If Your Partner Really Loves You

An American survey found that approximately 34% of people claim to have experienced love at first sight. It is universally known that love is the deepest emotion we can feel that requires both compassion and affection. As a result, it is crucial for us to know whether our partner we have invested time in is in love with us.

As Bright Side strives to spread love throughout its audience, we decided to share these psychological tips on how to tell if your partner really loves you.

1. Posing their muscles around you

If they are posing or flexing their muscles while you’re nearby, it could be a sign that they like you or is in love with you. Maybe they want to display their strength and height more. It has been proven in studies that when they demonstrate that they are strong enough to protect you, it means they have a secret crush on you.

2. Looking into your eyes

The majority of prolonged eye contact is due to both parties being interested in or aroused by each other. In general, when a man loves or wants to learn more about a woman, he makes deep eye contact. On the other side, women sometimes look down while their partners approach them through their eyes.

3. A gap of 48 hours between conversations

If it has been more than 48 hours since you spoke, it is a warning sign. Frequent exchange of words is a good sign that your partner loves you. If no talking is done within this time, the outcome may be one you don’t want to hear. Perhaps the person doesn’t like you as much if they don’t call or text you.

4. If your pupil dilates

You will notice a dilation of their pupils if you stare at their eyes continuously. When this happens, you are in safe mode because your partner loves you. Oxytocin and dopamine, the 2 “love hormones,” influence the size of the pupils.
Whenever we are attracted to someone, we produce more of these chemicals in our brain. Apparently, this causes our pupils to dilate.

5. Their cuddle is pain-relieving.

Sometimes, headaches are frequent for a variety of reasons. By cuddling with those you love, you may simply eliminate them from your life. This is because science has proven that kissing, hugging, snuggling, and holding hands all create beautiful experiences. The after-effects are far-reaching — they can even help you lose weight, lower blood pressure, fight off illness, and more.

6. No breakups in 5 months

There are times when you break things off within 2 or 3 months before beginning the relationship again. It is very common and normal. But it may be dangerous if this happens frequently. On the positive side, if you haven’t had a breakup in 5 months, then something is special between you guys.

7. Anger that lasts no more than 3 days

It is normal to be angry with your partner from time to time since a relationship includes all kinds of emotions. Nevertheless, if this anger persists for more than 3 days, you may lose your relationship. In our anger, we release a bunch of toxic chemicals that damage our relationships as well as the health of our partners.

8. Mirroring your body language

The person you love will act as if they are you. In other words, they’ll admire your actions and accept them. This happens because our brain produces mirror neurons for people we have empathy for or love. Mirror neurons indicate comfort and trust.

9. Their body faces you.

We all know that our body language speaks loudly. While having a conversation with your partner, it is said that if they are wholly oriented to your side, then they are in love with you. It is a great sign to check whether they really love you because when facing their torso to your side, they’re being more receptive to you than others.

10. Getting a glow on their skin

Their glowing face is a sign of their love for you. Observe their gestures and actions more closely, and you will notice that they are always happy and smiling. If they love you, they will act that way.
