There are so many beautiful things to love about love.
One of these is the fact that it is a language that is both spoken and understood by everyone, everywhere in the world.
They may not speak the same language or have an understanding of their speech.
But when it comes to love, there is no barrier.
Another is that it can be expressed in ways as numerous as the stars in the sky.
There are no limitations to how people express love, and there are no rules.
People have become very innovative and creative with love in the quest to keep their love alive and bubbling.
Saying the word is a beautiful way to express love, especially with someone whose love language is words of affirmation.
But there are so many things to say about love, and words are very limited.
So people have naturally created several nonverbal ways to express love and say the things words fail to say.
So if your man has told you he loves you, but you need something extra to prove he is telling the truth, here are some non-verbal expressions you can look out for.
9 Non-verbal Ways He is Telling You He Loves You
1. His Eyes Light Up When He Sees You
Love is usually found in the eyes.
It’s the reason a person will always turn their eyes away from you when they don’t want you to know that they are in love with you.
The eye barely lies.
A person might say something to you, but if you want to know how they truly feel, look into their eyes.
When a man is truly in love with you, you’ll see his eyes light up whenever he sees you.
His excitement will shine through his eyes and you can literally touch it.
And it’s not the one that lights up and fades away in two seconds.
No.
It stays through the time you both spend together.
His eyes adore you.
This is a sign that you mean the world to him.
2. He Mirrors Your Movements
This is the one that is called mannerism.
When you begin to behave like someone after spending time with them for a while.
It is a subconscious way people show that they are in sync with you.
He begins to act like you will or respond to things the way you do.
Or even mirror your right in your presence – crossing his legs when you do, picking up his drink when you pick up yours, etc.
These are very subconscious actions that show that he is deeply connected to you.
3. He Smiles Often in Your Presence
Apart from that sparkle in his eyes, his smile seems to be plastered on his face.
A soft and genuine smile that’s always there can convey warmth, happiness, and love.
That smile reaches his eyes and radiates joy.
If you find that he is always grinning whenever you’re near, it’s a non-verbal cue that he enjoys your company and cherishes the moments you spend together.
4. He Pays Attention to Your Needs
Talk is sweet, but talk is also cheap.
What counts is action, not too much talk.
A man who loves you can show action in several ways, one of which is being attentive to your needs.
You know, it is one thing to shower someone with gifts, and it is another to meet their needs every time.
The latter is the better one.
He’ll notice when you are down and get you things to help you recover quickly, he remembers the little things you mention in your conversations with him, and is always there for you, supporting you and taking care of your needs.
These are ways he expresses his love to you without saying a word.
5. His Body Orientation
Men have behavioural patterns that are quite different from that of women.
The way a man positions his body when he’s around you can tell you a lot about his feelings.
If he often faces you directly with his torso when you both are together, it’s a sign that he is opening himself to and interested in you.
He’s not closing himself off but rather showing that he wants you.
As soon as you see his body positioned this way, you can rest assured that this man loves you.
6. He Invites You Into His Personal Space
In psychology, there’s public space, social space, and personal space.
I want to add that everyone has their personal of personal space.
A place where nobody is allowed in.
People usually let people they are quite close with into their personal space.
Very few people, but they are allowed in.
But you see the personal of personal?
Nobody comes in there.
But a man will usually invite the woman he loves into that space.
Lets her in and bares himself before her, showing her that he won’t withhold anything from her.
It’s a non-verbal way he uses to express his love for you.
7. He Shows Up for You
When you have someone who always has excuses for not being there, you can be sure that they do not want to be there.
I said excuses because many times, there are genuine reasons why a person cannot be there for you over a span of time.
In this situation, you will even know their reasons and won’t be expecting them.
You see, reliability is a strong sign of love.
And it is also a nonverbal expression of love.
You know your man is reliable when he shows up for you when you need him and does what he says he will do when he says he will do it.
Being reliable makes it easy for you to build trust in him.
8. He’s Protective of You
Have you ever watched a mother hen hide her chicks under her wings in the face of predators?
That is the kind of protective instinct a man who loves you has towards you.
It is unplanned, unrehearsed, impulsive protection in the face of troubles.
Like the way he quickly turns you to the side of the pedestrian path away from the road when you both are taking a walk, or when he chooses to drop you off at home to be sure you arrive safely.
Or checks in with you at the slightest hint of discomfort.
Or stands up for you in the face of confrontation.
He is not overly possessive; he’s just trying his best to prevent harm from coming to you.
9. He Shares His World with You
A man who is in love with you won’t keep you outside of his life.
He’ll bring you in, and share it with you.
And how do you know this?
Because he won’t tell you, “Oh, I’m sharing my world with you.”
But he’ll give you details about what is going on with him each time.
He’ll introduce you to his family and friends.
He’ll share his hobbies and interests with you and bring you to his favourite places.
And you’ll hear someone say “he’s never brought anyone here before.”
These are ways he shows you that he is sharing his life with you, and they are powerful nonverbal expressions of his love for you.
Over the years, I have discovered that it is often the quiet, everyday actions that speak love the loudest.
Grand gestures and eloquent speeches work, but people do not have the luxury of time and resources to make grand gestures every day.
But they have what it takes to make their partners feel loved and appreciated every single day.
And many people are taking very good advantage of these God-given resources to improve their relationships and love life.
