Most of us have a checklist of what an ideal partner should be like.
Many expect that a partner should be caring, understanding, fun-loving, charming and there is no limit to the number of traits that can be added to this list.
However, there is one quality without which this list is incomplete and that is loyalty.
A relationship can never go the distance if the partners struggle with infidelity issues and in turn, find it difficult to trust each other.
Here are some signs to help you understand if the person you are dating has this important trait or not.
1. Dating the right way
Your partner puts efforts to make the relationship work and never takes you for granted. Whenever you have an argument, he/she tries to address the problem and ensure you don’t fight on the same issue again. Your lover is genuinely interested in understanding you better as a person and embraces you the way you are.
2. Emotional intimacy
Your bond with your partner is much deeper than just physical intimacy. You share an emotional connect with your partner and are involved in each other’s life. He does not shy away from sharing his secrets, deepest fears, personal aspirations, weird habits and is quite straightforward with you
3. Family and friends
Your significant other does not hesitate in introducing you to his/her friends and family members. Your relationship is not a secret from anyone and in fact, your partner looks forward to occasions and milestones to celebrate with you.
4. Social media activity
Your partner has never tried hiding his/her social media activity from you and you have never found anything suspicious. Also, he does not panic if you ask to go through his phone or tries to hide his phone whenever you both are together.
5. You are on the priority list
If your partner makes efforts to talk to you (even if for five minutes) on super-busy days, it shows you are on his/her priority list. If your partner finds ways to stay touch in you but at the same time, makes sure to never intrude your personal space, consider yourself to have found a loyal companion.
6. Being upfront
One of the biggest signs that you are dating a loyal person is that he is quite upfront about the relationship. He honestly talks about how he wants this relationship to unfold and always keeps your interest in mind. Further, he does not hide anything from and likes to keep you updated with whatever is happening in his life.
7. Your instinct
It’s important to trust your instinct. You have been dating him since quite some time and you have never come across anything suspicious that made you doubt him. You feel positive when he is around and that’s another sign your lover is a keeper.
