15 undeniable signs he sees you as someone special (complete list)

When it comes to love and relationships, it’s always hard to tell whether your guy is really into you or not. It’s even harder if he doesn’t seem like he wants anything serious with you. 

When I was dating my ex, I would spend ages wondering if he was just going to break up with me or not. 

The truth is that he wanted a serious relationship but didn’t know how to ask me. 

I want you to know the 15 signs that show he sees you as someone special. This way, when you are uncertain, you will be able to look at these signs and see for yourself whether or not he’s into you.

1) He’s willing to tell you exactly how he feels

I know it sounds obvious. But, it is not always a given when it comes to dating.

You want to know what’s going on in his head? He wants to let you in. 

After a while, it becomes clear that he likes being with you because he has feelings for you but is not ready to be completely honest about it. 

Men who don’t feel comfortable sharing their feelings with others are a lot easier to read and understand than those who do. 

Just as there are clues that show whether or not someone likes you, there are also clues that show how trustworthy this person really is when it comes to his feelings and emotions.

He doesn’t have to say it in a big way or ask the world, but just saying “I like you” or “I like spending time with you” is enough for me. 

And if he says it a lot, that definitely means he sees you as someone special to him. 

2) He listens to you and respects your opinion

This is obvious, but not all men are willing to do this. In fact, a lot of disrespectful men don’t even care what you have to say.

We all like to talk about ourselves and when it comes to a relationship, we like to feel important. A man who really cares about you will understand that and respect that. 

When you talk about something you love (or hate) with your guy and he’s still listening and paying attention, that means he sees you as someone special to him.

If he listens to what you have to say, gives you his full attention, asks questions, wants to know more about your likes and dislikes, values your opinion and genuinely cares about what you have to say, then he’s not just looking for a way into your skirt,…he sees you as someone special.

3) He considers you a part of his future plans

I know this might sound a little religious or too idealistic. But, it’s true.

Men who see you as someone special know that you have a potential future with them.

You’re not just a girl for him to have sex with and get over after 5 minutes of being together. He sees you as a person with an identity and wants to be sure everything is perfect when he decides to make you his wife someday. 

It’s very rare that people want to settle down quickly but when they do, it’s for the right reasons.

If he wants to discuss your future together, then he is clearly interested. 

Those who don’t want to hear what you have to say or think about your plans probably don’t care about you one bit. 

Men have a different way of showing their feelings than women do. If a man sees you as someone special to him, then he will let you know how he feels about the two of you spending time together in the future.

4) He wants your opinion about everything

If you two were talking about a certain topic or event and he wanted to know what your opinion was, then he sees you as someone special. 

When I was dating my ex, I could tell he respected my opinion because he’s always asking me for it. 

He even started letting me decide when we would see each other next. Sometimes, he would come over to my place just because I was thinking of calling him. 

I thought this was weird at first, but it made sense when I realized that the reason why he did this is because he wanted me to feel comfortable calling him any time I wanted to see him. He liked feeling needed.

5) He remembers the little things

A lot of men these days are so busy that they just don’t have time to notice the small things. 

But there’s always a difference between seeing our partner more as a friend rather than someone you’re dating, and not at all seeing them as someone special. 

If he wants to make you feel special, then the little things are what will do it. 

Little things like remembering a simple joke you told him or asking about your day no matter what he’s up to. 

He buys you a small gift for no reason at all or does something that makes your day better by just being there. 

He doesn’t have to remember the little things that you do, but he should be able to remember the little things like your favorite color and tell you what they are.

If he can remember the color of my shirt or your favorite movie or book, that means he cares about you. 

6) Shows you off to his family and friends

Why does he show you off to his friends and family? It’s because he sees you as someone special.

Wherever you meet, you’ll probably wonder if he’s trying to show you off to his friends and family. He can be doing it subtly or not so subtly.

What matters most is that he isn’t hiding you at home or making up an excuse as to why they can’t meet you. 

If he says something like, “Any friend of mine would love to meet the one I’m with”, then that means he sees you as someone special. 

Another great sign that shows how much your guy cares about you is if he introduces you as his girlfriend or calls you by some other nickname that only the two of you share. I have yet to meet someone who doesn’t like being called an endearing nickname by their significant other. 

He wants everyone around him to know what’s going on and who this important girl in his life is.

7) He always wants to know where you are and who you’re with

If he’s always asking you what your plans are and where you’re going, it means he sees you as more than just a girl on the side. 

If he gets jealous of your friends or other men, then that’s another sign that he sees you as someone special. 

He doesn’t want to see anyone else have a relationship with you, because he knows that no one can ever love or care for you the way he does. 

When I was dating my ex, I felt like I had to hide things from him because of how jealous and insecure he was. Everything was an issue for him.

He probably saw me as someone special when we got together, but his desires and needs have grown since then, and this has made him a lot more reckless than he is at first.

But this issue was solved once I understood that he just did it because he thought I was someone special to him. Then I stopped feeling so frustrated and was more open to him.

8) He always wants to make plans with you

If he wants to be with you all the time, and is willing to put in the effort to be with you at all times, it means he sees you as someone special. 

Men don’t go out of their way just for anyone. They only do that for someone who is important to them. He sees you as someone special if he wants and needs to see you as often as possible.

You know what? 

If he always wants to be with you and plans to see you in the future, then I would say he’s not just looking for a fling, he sees you as someone special.

I don’t know about you, but when I start dating someone, I don’t plan to hang out with them every week day or weekend.

But if my guy always wants to see me and plan things with me, then he’s not just looking for a fling, he sees me as someone special. 

If he wants to be with you on the weekend and takes his time meeting up with other women, that means he sees your relationship as something more than just casual.

However, if his wishes are a bit unreasonable or if he’s trying to take advantage of the situation, that tells a different story.

9) He cares more about your feelings than your lifestyle

He might not spend much time with you, but whatever you want to do or where you want to go really doesn’t bother him.

If you want to go out and have a lot of fun with your friends, he doesn’t care. If you prefer spending time at home, then that is something he really wants to be involved in.

He sees you as someone special because if he’s being honest with himself, he will say that your happiness is the most important thing for him and his life revolves around making sure that your happiness is there. 

If he cares about your feelings more than anything else in the world, then that means everything else has to take place behind closed doors. 

That’s why it is important for you to respect this because if you don’t, his love for you might fade away eventually.

10) He always wants to bring you flowers

If he’s always asking you to go on dates, (or dates with other guys) but he still tries to bring you flowers everyday and make it look like a romantic gesture, then he sees you as someone special. 

We all want to feel wanted by our partner. When we feel this way, we can tolerate things that we really wouldn’t be able to tolerate in case the relationship ended. 

I find this important because it shows that he thinks about you more than just a girl he’s sleeping around with or sharing his bed with. 

He wants to show his love for your sweetness, gracefulness and beauty even when things are not serious.

11) He never misses the perfect opportunity to tell you some romantic things

Every time we feel like our partner appreciates us, we want that feeling more and more. When we feel like our partner is talking about us positively in front of other people, we get a big boost of self-confidence. 

We all love compliments and sometimes it feels as if there isn’t anything better in the world than being appreciated by your partner. 

If he never misses the perfect opportunity to tell you how beautiful you are and how much he loves you, then that means he sees you as someone special. 

Asking “why do you always talk about me in front of other people?” doesn’t really make much sense in this situation because it’s what he does. 

His love for you is so strong that his feelings for you are stronger than any feelings he might have for another woman, or for anyone else for that matter.

12) He wants to be physically close to you

This is the really physical side of things. Men who are into you will want to be intimate with you.

He can’t keep his hands to himself, right? Well, the truth is that he could. But if he wants to be physically close to you, even when there’s no reason to, then that means he sees you as someone special.

I know it’s hard to resist the temptation of “fooling around”, but if he puts in all the effort and goes out of his way just because he wants to touch you a little bit more, he sees you as someone special. 

Even though this might seem like a fun game for both of you in the beginning, it is important that he does not get carried away with it.

It is a sign that he sees you as someone special if his desire to be physically close to you is driven by something more than just the physical attraction.

13) He always wants to make sure you’re safe

He doesn’t want anything bad to happen to you, because he sees you as someone special. 

Every time you take a bite out of your food, he’s looking to make sure it’s not too spicy for you. Or when it’s cold outside, he gets up and offers you his coat. 

He will be concerned about your safety even if you’re taking public transportation, and he will not hesitate to ask you when or where you’re going. 

If he’s willing to drop everything and run in the middle of the night just because he’s worried that something might happen, then that means he sees you as someone special. 

He wants to protect and care for you because of the connection he feels with you. 

I mean he doesn’t even have to offer you this stuff sometimes; he just does it because he wants to do it. He sees how special you are and wants to make sure you’re safe at all times

I’m aware that this might be a bit over the top, but if he shows concern for your safety constantly and tries not to let you go home alone at night, then that means he sees you as someone special. 

14) He always tries to give you the best he has

This is actually a big “turn-off” for most girls. A guy who’s obsessed with his job, career, or just acts like there’s nothing else in the world for him but work will probably never see you as someone special.

But if he spends more time with you and steps outside of his comfort zone to do things that make you happy, then that means he sees you as someone special. 

If he always tries to make sure that you’re having fun and that your day was great, even though it wasn’t really all that great himself, then he loves you as much more than just a friend.

It’s okay to have different priorities and to like different things than your partner. It’s normal for us to have different interests, too. 

But it’s very important that we always try to see our relationship as something bigger than just a friendship or something physical. 

If he does advance in the relationship, it is important that he does not get carried away with it. He should always remind you why he fell in love with you in the first place and never lose sight of that reason.

15) He remembers the things you said about your past

We all have our own unique experiences, and we also have a unique way of dealing with those experiences. 

Every time we tell someone else about them, we expose ourselves to them, and that’s why it’s so important to choose our words wisely. 

If he always remembers what you said about your past, then it means that he sees you as someone special because you’re not just somebody he met at a party or in the office building. 

He took the time to get to know your past and who you really are on the inside. He values these things because they help him understand how intelligent and great of a person you really are.

Conclusion 

As you can see, there are many, many things that men look for in a relationship. 

So, the question is: what do you look for in him? If you have some of these qualities we talked about and if he has at least some of these qualities too, then your relationship will be very strong and will last a long time if not forever. 

Doing this might take some time as you need to find out what kind of guy he is. 

No matter how much or how little effort you put into your relationship, it will always be there for you when you need it most. You can always count on it because that’s how relationships work in this day and age.

I hope you enjoyed reading this article, and I hope it opened your eyes to a whole new world of possibilities. Don’t be shy about giving guys compliments. 

It never hurts to say “I love you” every once in a while or to make sure he knows how much you appreciate him in some way.
