My boyfriend and I just celebrated our two year anniversary and I started to reminisce about the last two years. Today, most relationships do not last that long, especially at our age, so I started to think about what makes our relationship work. I think our relationship has been successful because he does certain things that indicate he's a "keeper."
These signs show that your boyfriend is in it for the long haul and actually cares about you. If he does not do any of these things, then possibly he's not a keeper, and you should move on.
1. He cooks
If he cooks food for you and it's actually tasty, then he's definitely a keeper.
2. He always texts you first
Waking up to "good morning" texts will simply never get old.
3. He opens the car door for you
Chivalry does not have to be dead, it is always nice to have the car door opened for you.
4. He loves you unconditionally
Even when you are at your worse he still loves you.
5. He hypes you up
He always makes you feel special and that you can achieve anything when you start to doubt yourself.
6. He makes you laugh
And his jokes are super cheesy.
7. He watches reality tv with you
Like The Bachelor, KUWTK, Real Housewives, etc.
8. He's a dog person
Enough said.
9. He trusts you
Because relationships are built on trust.
10. He makes you feel happy
In fact, the happiest you've ever been.
Keep in my mind that my list of signs he's a keeper may be totally different than yours and that is okay. The moral of the story is that you should be with someone who makes you feel special and cares for you, through their actions.
