Sometimes, it can be hard to know for sure whether or not a boyfriend is husband material. However, there are some definite signs to look for that will help any woman decide when she should say “yes” when he pops the question.
1. He checks in often
Whether he’s letting his woman know that he’s leaving the office or asking her how her day has gone during lunch, a good husband frequently lets his woman know that he’s thinking about her.
2. He’s willing to play nurse
There are a huge number of men that are not mature enough to be nurturing, so when a man is willing to care for his woman when she’s sick humbly, it’s a good sign that he’s ready for marriage.
3. He can place both orders at restaurants
If a guy can place his girlfriend’s order at a place they frequent, then it’s a pretty good sign that he’s marriage material. It means that he pays attention to the little details and knows what she likes.
4. He’s good with kids
This is crucial for women who want children! A man should be a good role model for the kids in his life and interact with them positively every time he comes into contact with them.
5. He’s unbelievably faithful
This means that he doesn’t even talk to ex-girlfriends and quickly shuts down any woman that attempts to flirt with him because he only has one woman on his mind.
6. He brings up a future together
If the woman is always bringing up their future, that’s one thing. But when he’s the one that talks about where he sees the relationship going, it’s a good sign that he’s in it for the long haul.
7. He has solid friendships with other guys
More than “drinking buddies,” a guy who is genuine and mature will have several close friendships with other guys, often that he’s known for some years.
8. He respects waiters, etc
When a man is respectful to even those who are paid to serve him food, it’s a great sign that he’s going to be respectful to everyone in his life, particularly to his wife.
9. He’s low maintenance
If he takes the same amount of time as his woman to get ready before leaving the house, he might be too high maintenance to handle marriage since he still worries about what others think of his looks.
10. He has a good sense of humor
Being able to laugh together and enjoy life is one of the things that keeps a marriage strong. If a man has a good sense of humor and a positive outlook on life, he’s ready to be married.
11. He sees his woman’s strengths
This one is HUGE! A mature man that’s marriage material not only sees the good things in his woman, but he comments on them and encourages her to use those to be an even stronger woman.
12. He handles conflict well
This means that he doesn’t close himself off or walk away in anger when a conflict occurs. Instead, he’s willing to talk it out and do what it takes to resolve the conflict and then move forward.
For many women, they go too much on feelings alone, but feelings can be manipulated, and some men are great at keeping up an act for a time. However, when a woman looks closely at how her boyfriend acts and uses these 13 signs, she can make a much better decision as to whether or not he is going to make a good husband.
