In this article, we will look at the signs a man loves you deeply, even if he doesn’t mention he loves you.
Love is beautiful, and we all want someone to love us. However, human feelings are hard to decipher, and you may never know when someone loves you deeply if they do not tell you.
A man can say he loves you in many ways without saying the three magical words. Some men will never tell you how they feel about you, but they will show you through their actions.
So, if you are wondering if a man loves you deeply, there are many signs you can look out for to know how he feels.
Signs A Man Loves You Deeply
There are many signs a man loves you deeply, some of these signs include;
1. He Protects You
There is nothing that says I love you more than a man who wants to protect you.
When a man loves you deeply, he will want to keep you safe from all harm. So he will do his best to keep you away from all harm.
When a man loves you deeply, he will protect you because if you hurt, he hurts too, and he can’t stand to see you hurt.
It’s natural for men to protect what they value, and if your man values you, he will protect you by all means. Even if it means protecting you from yourself.
2. He Accepts Your Flaws
No one is perfect, no matter how much we want to see partners as perfect beings.
So, if your man loves you deeply, he will accept you for who you are. He will see your flaws and love you despite those flaws.
So, if your boyfriend loves you deeply, he will overlook your flaws. For instance, you may not be the tidiest person or a little bit clumsy, but if your boyfriend loves you deeply, he will overlook these flaws and help you with them.
For example, he will help you tidy up without being condescending. Even if he doesn’t like cleaning, he will help you clean because he loves you.
3. He Listens To You
A man who loves you deeply will always give you a listening ear. It doesn’t matter what you talk about; he will be there to listen.
To a man who loves you, your voice is like music to his ears; no matter how insignificant the conversation is, he will pay attention and remember all the minute details.
If a man loves you deeply, he will always be there for you. He will be your sounding board and listening ear when you need to rant.
Moreover, a man who loves you knows you do not always need someone to offer advice but a listening ear.
Sometimes all we want is someone to listen to us vent and not give us any advice, and a man who loves you deeply understands this. He will not belittle you because of the problems you are going through.
For instance, if a man loves you deeply, he will listen to you vent about the problems you are going through with your friends or at work; he will be there to listen.
4. He Prioritizes You
When a man loves you deeply, you will always be his priority. It doesn’t matter what he is doing; if you need his help, he will be there for you with no excuses.
There are many men who say they love you but will prioritize their friends and family over you. However, if a man loves you deeply, he will always prioritize you.
Your man may have FOMO but would rather miss out on social events and be with you.
According to Dr. Andrea Bonior, psychologist, and author, “FOMO can be a real psychological phenomenon, and it can lead to people prioritizing certain social events over other important commitments, including relationships.”
So, if your boyfriend prioritizes you over social events you know he would not miss for the world, he loves you deeply and prioritizes you over everything else.
5. He Wants To Spend Time With You
When you love someone, you always want to be with them. According to Steven McCornack in Reflect and Relate: Introduction to Interpersonal Communication, in the coming together phase of romantic relationships, partners experience strong feelings due to proximity.
So, if a man loves you deeply, he will want to spend more time with you, as the more time he spends with you, the more his feelings for you intensify.
Moreover, a man who loves you deeply will want to spend as much time as possible learning more about you.
When you spend time together, you will gain each other’s trust and will open up to each other.
A man who sincerely loves you will want to be with you; it doesn’t matter what you will do as long as he is with you.
He will sacrifice his time to hang out with you, even doing the most mundane things.
If a man loves you deeply, you can hang out counting grains of sand, and he will not care as long as he gets to spend time with you.
6. He Supports You
If a man loves you deeply, he will support you. A man who loves you is your number-one cheerleader in all you do.
If you wish to take up a new career path or a new course in school, he will be with you through it all.
He will support you with all he has got, financially, emotionally, and physically. He will be the cheerleader you never knew you needed.
For instance, I worked an 8-5 job which was draining me. One day I decided enough was enough.
I wanted to do something that made me happy and gave me time to work on my mental health. So I decided to go into freelance work.
My boyfriend was there for me; he supported me through my decision even though I knew he couldn’t really understand my decision.
One year later, he is still here, holding me up when I feel like crumbling.
So, a man who loves you deeply may not always understand why you do what you do, but he will be your support system no matter what.
7. He Chooses You Always
I know we all want to believe we are God’s gift to men. But the truth is, there will be women who will be better than us, prettier than us, more educated than us.
However, a man who deeply loves you will always choose you over all the other women.
He will come across many women who are better than you; you may even think he deserves someone better than you.
However, if a man loves you deeply, he will choose you over and over again, no matter how much “better” women he comes across.
8. He Loves Your Family And Friends
When a man loves you deeply, he will want to be in your family and friends’ good graces. He understands that your family and friends are essential to your life, and he will do everything to get along with them.
A man who loves you deeply will not want to jeopardize your relationship with your family and friends.
Therefore, he will want to get along with them, so when you hang out with them, he can feel part of the group.
Moreover, a man who loves you deeply will not have a problem meeting your family. Instead, he will take this as an opportunity to learn more about you so he can love you better.
For instance, when I started dating my current boyfriend, he was interested in meeting my friends.
He could encourage me to go hang out with them because he knew how much I value my friendships. We now hang out with my friends and family, and they all love him.
9. He Understands Your Love Language
A man who loves you deeply will take his time to learn your love language. According to research, understanding your partner’s love language improves satisfaction in the relationship.
So, if a man loves you deeply, he will want to learn your love language so he can love you the way you would want to be loved.
This increases your satisfaction in the relationship, making the relationship last longer.
We all want someone to love us, but it is even better when the person loves us the way we prefer to be loved.
For instance, if your love language is an act of service, you may not feel loved when all your partner wants to do is cuddle and touch.
However, a man who sincerely loves you will take time to listen and learn your love language.
He will start doing more acts of service for you, and you will be more receptive to his love language.
My boyfriend’s love language is touch, while mine is gifting and acts of service.
So, he has learned to do things that align with my love languages, and I am more receptive to his as well. So, it is a give-and-take situation, and we are both happy.
10. He Forgives You
Human is to error, and to forgive is divine. No one is perfect; once in a while, you will wrong your partner.
However, if a man loves you deeply, he will forgive you when you wrong him. He will give you space to talk about the problem and forgive you when you seek forgiveness.
So, if your man loves you, he will make room for errors in the relationship and will forgive.
However, if he doesn’t love you, he will always hold your mistakes above your head and may even blame you for everything that happens in the relationship.
11. He Checks Up On You
If a man loves you deeply, he will always check up on you when you are not together. No day will pass without him knowing how you are doing.
A man who loves you will worry when he doesn’t hear from you for a long time.
Moreover, if a man loves you deeply, he will want to know when you are not okay and will come to your rescue.
For instance, I am in a long-distance relationship, and whenever my boyfriend calls to check up on me, he always wants to know how I am fairing.
One day I was not feeling well, and he came overnight to take me to the hospital and stayed with me till I was better. This confirmed his love for me.
12. He Is Loyal
A man who sincerely loves you will always be loyal and never cheat on you. He believes he has found the woman for him and will be faithful to her always.
If a man loves you deeply, he will not be swayed by other females online and will not go after other women, no matter how attractive they are.

We all need help sometimes, and a man who loves you knows this. So, he will do his best to care for you when you need him.
Moreover, he will encourage you to take care of yourself even when he is not around to take care of you.
Sometimes, life can knock you down, and you may not be able to always take care of yourself. But a man who loves you will pick up the slack and be there for you.
For instance, I work from home and have not been taking care of myself very well the last few months; I have gained weight which I am struggling to lose.
My boyfriend is so supportive, making sure I put in my steps every day and eat a well-balanced diet to maintain my optimal weight, and I can’t thank him enough.

He will also be there to listen when you are stressed and pick you up when you are depressed. He is someone you can rely on no matter what you are going through.
15. He Keeps His Promises
If a man loves you deeply, his words will match his actions. A man who loves you will never promise you something he can’t fulfill. He is a man of his word, and his word is his bind.
A man who loves you will always ensure he keeps his promise, and if something can make him not keep his promise, he will inform you beforehand.
I hate someone who can’t keep promises, no matter how small. If you say you will do something, please do, if you can’t say so beforehand.
Broken promises lead to broken hearts, and I would rather you don’t promise and give me a surprise than promise and not keep your word.
