Some of those include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>He\u2019s not over his ex and is just using you as a rebound<\/li><li>He\u2019s a total mommy\u2019s boy and clearly immature<\/li><li>He\u2019s never been in a serious relationship before, and you can tell he doesn\u2019t know how to treat a woman<\/li><li>He\u2019s aggressive towards you<\/li><li>He doesn\u2019t know what he wants<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While red flags can be pretty easy to spot, no one seems to be talking about the green flags in a relationship.

So, if you choose to focus on the things that he isn\u2019t doing right, you will ultimately be setting yourself up for failure. It\u2019s much better to focus on all the things that he is getting right\u2026right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s review 15 green flags to look for early in the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_57 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-662d1b26602c3\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-662d1b26602c3\" checked aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='insert-page-1 insert-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/herlifeblog.com\/green-flags-to-look-for-early-in-the-relationship\/#1_Hes_a_good_communicator\" title=\"1.

He puts in the effort, day in and day out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This includes being open about his feelings, being interested in your opinions, acknowledging your desires, asking for consent, and being able to handle conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, the conversation with him just flows. He\u2019s actively listening to you. He remembers things you\u2019ve told him and genuinely wants to hear everything you\u2019ve got to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also texts you back quickly and never leaves you on seen. He doesn\u2019t vanish on you, coming up with some silly excuses for why he wasn&#8217;t there. He consistently shows up, and that counts for a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you aren\u2019t a fan of incessant texting, the fact that he checks in on you regularly makes you feel all fuzzy inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Hes_emotionally_mature\"><\/span>2.

When you are dating a guy who\u2019s emotionally mature, you know that you can rely on him. Some of the signs that the guy you\u2019re dating is emotionally mature include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>He\u2019s accountable<\/li><li>He doesn\u2019t suppress his feelings<\/li><li>He has purpose and passion<\/li><li>He knows what he wants<\/li><li>He treats you as an equal<\/li><li>He says what he means<\/li><li>He doesn\u2019t play games<\/li><li>He lets you know where you stand with him<\/li><li>He takes care of himself, his belongings, and his home<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the easiest way to spot an emotionally immature guy is to see how he treats the place where he lives, whether that\u2019s his own home or just a room he\u2019s renting. If it&#8217;s a disaster, he might be too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_He_is_devoted_to_you\"><\/span>3.

He isn\u2019t playing games with you, he isn&#8217;t taking days to reply, he isn\u2019t still texting other girls. He\u2019s just in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You know that he\u2019s putting in the time and effort to get to know you, and only you. He\u2019s happy to delete his dating apps because he is serious about you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_He_doesnt_keep_you_a_secret\"><\/span>4.

That varies for every relationship and every guy. A green flag you should watch for is that he isn&#8217;t keeping you a secret. Even if you haven\u2019t met his family yet, you know he\u2019s told them about you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This shows that he\u2019s serious about you. He\u2019s more than happy for you to meet his friends and family early on and hang out with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_He_doesnt_pressure_you_to_have_sex\"><\/span>5.

If you\u2019re not ready, don\u2019t just do it because he wants to. In fact, the longer you make him wait, the bigger the test \u2013 this way you know whether he\u2019s around just for sex or for something more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If he ghosts you after a couple of dates and no sex, you\u2019ve got your answer. On the other hand, if this guy doesn&#8217;t pressure you to have sex and seems happy to just get to know you, that&#8217;s a great green flag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_He_can_talk_about_his_feelings\"><\/span>6.

That means him opening up and being vulnerable, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you want to be stuck with some man-child who never tells you what he wants or thinks? Encourage communication and watch how he acts and what his body language tells you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_He_makes_the_relationship_a_priority\"><\/span>7.

That means spending as much time as he can with you, and when he can\u2019t, he texts and calls you often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He doesn\u2019t sit around waiting until Friday night to ask what your plans are for the weekend; he\u2019s already made plans with you earlier in the week. You feel like you are a priority in his life because you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He doesn\u2019t know you that well yet, but he\u2019s choosing to put in the time and effort to build your connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_He_is_not_confrontational\"><\/span>8.

It\u2019s in their blood. You have probably dated or know someone who seems to get easily annoyed because they think:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>You said or did the wrong thing<\/li><li>He\u2019s not in the mood and you are triggering him<\/li><li>You made him jealous<\/li><li>You\u2019re not supporting him<\/li><li>You don\u2019t understand all his struggles<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This guy, however, is not like that. He doesn\u2019t snap at the littlest thing, and he certainly doesn&#8217;t blame you for his misfortunes. An important green flag to look for early in the relationship is his ability to have a healthy argument and to discuss things with patience and respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He doesn\u2019t pick fights in public and certainly doesn\u2019t offend you. He can control his emotions and you love that about him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_He_doesnt_talk_about_his_ex\"><\/span>9.

It\u2019s like he sees her everywhere and even compares the two of you. You begin to wonder if you are just a rebound and if he has his priorities straight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great guy won\u2019t be blabbing on about his ex at the start of the relationship. In fact, he\u2019ll probably refuse to talk about her at all. See this is a green flag. He\u2019s respecting you and leaving the past where it belongs \u2013 in the past. He wants to find out everything there is to know about you, not relive his past relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he does mention his ex, you don\u2019t sense bitterness or anger. He\u2019s able to see clearly what went wrong or why it didn\u2019t work out, and he isn\u2019t fixated on proving to you that she was a bitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_You_give_each_other_space\"><\/span>10.

Not just because you ask, but because he genuinely respects your boundaries and knows how important it is to maintain separate lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you are with him, you still feel like two individuals, with your separate lives, friends, and hobbies, and that feels just right. You both make sure you spend sufficient time apart, so you don\u2019t become co-dependent. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_You_arent_trying_to_impress_each_other\"><\/span>11.

But there\u2019s a subtle difference between being your best self around him and being your authentic self.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The latter means that you two aren\u2019t trying to impress each other but are being your real selves. There\u2019s a lot of value in that, for both of your sakes! You know he accepts you for who you are, and that empowers you to be yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t feel the need to act a certain way to impress him, that\u2019s a sign your relationship is headed in the right direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12_He_makes_an_effort_with_your_friends_and_family\"><\/span>12.

This way you can bring him with you and he will just naturally be part of the gang. If he fits right in and makes a genuine effort with your friends, he\u2019s definitely a keeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first time he meets your family, he brings flowers for your mom.

As they say \u2013 in sickness and in health! There\u2019s nothing sweeter than a guy who sticks around even when you don\u2019t look your cutest self.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He just wants to take care of you and make you feel better; being near you is enough for him. This won\u2019t come naturally to every guy at the start of a relationship, so look for one who feels just at ease when you are sick as he does when you are fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"14_He_wants_the_same_things_you_want\"><\/span>14.

You appear to be on the same page about all the things that matter the most to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You just agree on things. You\u2019ve got a certain understanding or even an unspoken way of knowing what the other thinks. It\u2019s a rare thing to have at the start of a relationship, some might even call it magic.

The fact that he\u2019s actually telling you how you make him feel is a great green flag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He tells you when he\u2019s having fun, when he feels proud of you, and when you make him feel really good. He is ready to say, &#8220;I love you,\u201d just hasn\u2019t quite gotten there yet. His whole behavior shows that <a href=\"https:\/\/herlifeblog.com\/relationship\/how-long-should-you-date-someone-before-getting-married\/\">he cares deeply about you<\/a> and he considers himself
