Signs your man loves you,,,
He pretends to like your cat by no longer drop-kicking Fluffy down a flight of stairs when you're not looking...
When you come over to visit, he starts picking up- he shoves underwear under the bed (his and other women's), he moves the Playboy centerfold to a less frequented room, and he hides all of the dirty dishes in less conspicuous places... He lets you see the remote. You,as a woman, will never actually get to use the remote, so consider a distant viewing of it a positive sign... He takes one of those Cosmo quiz things without complaining... He doesn't mind that his parents, pets,children like you better. His friends will never like you better. They undoubtedly want to sleep with you http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif, but they will never like you. Ladies, someone sent this to me...I think it's funny, even a bit cute but this is sooo true! |
I want to add something to the list (although this does not mean he loves you, but he may like you):
He doesn't mind if you answer his telephone. |
Soror Akatude,
If a man lets you answer his phone I think that he is definitely in love. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif |
I didn't want to give false hope. That happened to me a few years ago, but it was not love. Now, my fiance is a different story. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
|
This one comes from personal experience:
He loves you when you are in bed with severecramps and you ask him to go to the store for tampons. His reply: "Lites, regulars, or heavies?" *sigh* I Love my man..... |
Serenity, Now that's love!
*sigh* I CAN'T WAIT until I find my soul mate! It must be special feeling. |
Serenity, I was JUST about to post the same thing!!
O.K. I have to share a 'my man is the bomb" story that just happened last night.. I had an AWFUL day at work yesterday (actually it's been an awful month, but that's another story) and came home just depressed. My husband listened as I cried on his shoulder, fixed dinner (and my favorite kool-aid: tropical punch and lemonaid mixed http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif ), then suggested we take a walk. We walked down to the lake in our subdivision and sat for a while and talked some more. After we walked home he *insisted* that he give me a bubble bath! sigh.....I love my pun'kin!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif |
Now that was BE-U-T-FUL!
Eclipse I am waiting for the day MY MAN or any man does that for me! Serenity, my man thinks tampons and maxi's have cooties :0) |
I learned my man was ok with that when we were in Wal-Mart together one day. I asked him to hold a bag of Always and he was so cool with it. I asked him if he felt uncomfortable and he said not at all.
Sexy Mocha, it is a special feeling. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif |
Okay sorors and friends, why does my man have an allergy to holding my purse in public? He told me when we first got serious that he wasn't going to be a "purse carrier," but I'm like, bruh, if you want me to put your keys, pager, wallet, AND Palm Pilot in this bad boy, then you're carrying this damn purse when we're shopping!
Okay, good man story: On my first day at my new job, my husband got up, pressed my blouse, laid out my outfit, cooked some pancakes and turkey sausage, served it to me on a lovely plate (with a napkin), prayed with me, and packed me some fruit and other snacks before sending me off into the world! My momma wasn't THAT good when I was little! Then, later that week, we bought me several work pieces, without my help, at the Elisabeth store in Water Tower. And I loved all of them (and they fit! AND they were one size smaller than what I usually wear-sista been working out and hubby noticed). *Sigh* I think my hubby is THE MAN! DG Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.

DisgoGoddess,
When a man does THAT for you, you can kinda forgive him for not wanting to hold your purse when you go shopping.....can't you?? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif |
Ladies, our men are livin g proof that all men are not jerks. YAY! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
Not to brag..... But my honey kidnapped my for my birthday. We spent a weekend at one of the beach resorts here. And, we went skinny dipping. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif Yeah, you know your man loves you when your butt bounces a little more than it should http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif and he still calls you beautiful. |
okay...brace yourselves...BITTER SINGLE WOMAN IN THE HOUSE!!!... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
Sike, but anyway, I thought Sf's Discogoddess's post was so funny, I mean what is actually the problem...HELLO!!!, people know if me and you are together, then it must be MY purse...DUH!!! (It's not like I asked him to go to the club sporting that bad-boy, with shoes to match!) And on the issue of tampons/pads...me and my ex were in the store, and he was rushing me, so I tore my shopping list in half, and gave him part as to make the trip quicker...he looks at it, and was like well, "Why you have to give me the half with the pads on it?" I said "Negro, don't you know that makes you look real good to some females, they see you walking through the store with a big 'ole bag of maxi's and they think 'Dag, I wish I had a man like that...'," Needless to say, he finished shopping with no complaints....HE HE http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif |
Greetings Ladies:
True love is so beautiful. All of your stories continue to give me hope that there are wonderful men out there. (Romantic here http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif) I have one to add to the list: You know your man is in love or at least likes you, when you try out that new recipe and even YOU know it's not great, but he still tells you he likes it and that it's good. Take Care, Cookee |
Okay Sorors and SF's
You know your man love you when you are standing in the line at the movie theater and your water bag break---and he takes of his precious "Purple and Gold" jacket and wraps it around your waist to hinder "my" embarrasment>>>>>>> He cried when I was in labor, I mean sobbed! We have been married for more than 10 years +++ and I still love that man. Yeah! Yes I am older! ------------------ TO WHOM MUCH IS GIVEN....MUCH IS EXPECTED. |
Along the same lines of he likes you, maybe not loves you but at least likes you a whole lot
1) He lets you hold his pager or cell phone, for whatever reason you may need it on any given day at any time!! 2) You have been introduced to his mom and the rest of his fam and you can hang with them when he is not around. And Sexy Mocha I like the point about taking the quizzes without complaining, but also does not mind reading those articles you pass him from all type of other women magazines Oh and he has got to love you if he can watch Ophrah (sp.) and the stories ('All My Children') with you..... Love is a great thing !! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif |
[QUOTE]Originally posted by deja:

Good Evening Ladies-
I just could NOT pass this one up. I have a wonderful, handsome, supportive black man. This is a long one. You know your man loves you when: 1. You wake up in the morning with drool on your pillow and your headscarf in the covers, looking like Lion King and he still thinks you are beautiful. 2. Your newborn is howling in the middle of the night and he tells you to go back to sleep even though he has to go to work in 2 hours. 3. You have had 7 hours of HARD LABOR and he thinks that you are the most beautiful thing he has ever seen. 4. He remembers the anniversary of your first meeting/dinner and cooks that first meal to rekindle the feeling. 5. He suggests (and is planning) that we renew our vows in Jamaica so that I can have the wedding that I had always wanted. (we eloped) 6. He puts up with me logging on to the computer and chatting. 7. He will stop home and set the vcr because I forgot to tape Young and the Restless. (yes I am addicted) 8. (Before we were married) He takes you to his college homecoming and tells EVERYONE that this is the woman of his dreams! sigh... 9. He loves me unconditionally and knows that GOD comes first! I love my man and he truly completes me. All you single folks, don't worry. God has a plan. I love you Big Dex..... Your wife, ryanzmom |
Sorors and SF's,
All that I can say is that I want to be in love too!!!! You ladies have me over here crying because of all of the beautiful, caring gestures that the men in your lives have made. I am tired of being single and I want to experience a genuine love too. I know they say that there is someone for everyone out there, but I'm starting to think that my someone is either dead or gay (lol...I'm not so desparate that I can't laugh about it). I do have someone in mind and I'm hoping that something good will come from it. You guys wish me luck! Hopefully one day I'll be able to come back and share a romantic story with you all. |
serenity i feel ya!! my fiance has no problem purchasing the feminine products if need be. dg, he also has no problem carrying my purse..lol. he says, "i lived with 3 women, 'nuff said!!" http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif.
another thing i have realized is that if a man can get on his knees and pray with you in good and bad times, he is a keeper. that is from personal experience. one last thing, yesterday was my b-day and i was very depressed...over something else...i am happy about my age http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif. i told him i didn't want anything. he still came home bearing gifts, one of which was sorority sisters because he knew that the author was a lady of AKA. this is significant in that for a long time he was not supportive of my undergrad quest particulary after being around when my sister was on line for zeta and seeing how difficult she had it. so this book is just extra special for me!!! anyhoo, i just thought i would share that with my sisterfriends!!! peace |
ok.ok. This is a like,maybye not love dating one.
1. When you are states apart for the summer and he calls you everytime just to see how you are doing. 2. When he wakes up at eight o' clock in the morning to WALK to an office and take care of some business for you so you won't have to 3. WHen he tells you that his mother will like a certain quality in you(*blush*) 4. When he takes time out and helps you study for your finals 5. When he is not a church go-er but is willing to go to church with you(I am working on it ladies!!!!) 6. When you just have that gut-feeling that he is the one and you feel empty without him (*sigh* I hope so) |
Ok,... now what started out as a bit of light humor has turned into something really depressing for me! What's up with all of these touching love stories in this forum?? I tell you it's disgusting! That's right ladies, I'm officially hating on yall! WHEN IS MY MR. RIGHT GOING TO SHOW UP?!? Huh?? I ask you, WHEN?? Where is my prince charming? What are you guys doing that I obviously AM NOT?!? All I meet are *ssholes! Well, not all the time but, dang...just about all the time! I mean, is it me or what?? Jeesh! Ok, so now that I've vented...I have a question for all of you lucky ladies that have posted these tear jerking stories...How/when did you know your prince charming was the ONE? That's right, it has come to this. I have resorted to asking for relationship advice from people I don't know in a public forum. Can I sink any lower?? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

RyanzMom, your #s 1 and 9 hit home with me....
Niceone: I can attest to your #s 1 and 6 Signs your man loves you... He leaves me messages throughout the day telling me he loves me, misses me... etc etc etc,. So when I am at work and during the day, when I check my messages, he has left something on the voice mail, which cheers me up! He has me grinning from ear to ear! Especially, when he ends the message(s) with "Bye, Mrs. (add his last name)! The thing is, we are not married! Also, he starts singing a song and puts our names in it, for no reason. He goes to events with me even though he really is not interested... and vice versa..; He got on me when I didn't go to church...I was backsliding ya'll. To all those sorors and sisterfriends still waiting for that special person...it's coming! Don't give up! I have been there where you all are. I was so messed up from previous relationships, that I almost let this one slip out of my hands! When it is your "season", then it will happen. Just make sure you are "together", first. Also, watch your "friends". I almost let him go again. I try to associate myself with people who are in good, whole relationships. Cause, there are haters out there...haters of every caliber, and they will try ANYTHING to make sure that you are miserable like them. Good luck, he is on his way! Trust me! |
Thanks for the inspiring words AKA2D'91! There's hope after all!

Truer words have never been spoken!!!! It's so hard, but so necessary to forgive, in order to love again. |
Sexy Mocha I feel ya girl, I got a man and he is good to me but he is no prince charming ...as soon as I saw the love stories (and ladies you know I am happy for you) I just continued to read and not post, I am sure I will get there one day, but for now I am still learning and like a baby, I have fell a couple of times but the lord picks me up and I know that soon he will let My Man be 'THE ONE' or let MR. RIGHT walk in!

ryanzmom,
I hear you on number 1, girlfriend!! My husband's refrain is (when discussing some one like Jada or Halle or Vanessa) "They alright, but they ain't got nothin' on my baby" While I grin and make my double chin EVEN more pronounced!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif Oh! and Number 9 is certainly the blessing of ALL blessings!! |
To my sisterfriends in waiting http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif.
Take care of you in every way. That MR. RIGHT is probably under your nose. BE Honest with yourself in what you want. Write down your requirements...if you will for what you DESIRE that special man to be. this is something a friend of mine told me to do. write it as if you are talking to God. Write down everything down to the most intimate detail...God knows our intimate thoughts so there is no need to lie. Once you finish, put the letter in your favorite bible verse, pray on it and let it go. I did it just for the heck of it. After I started dating my fiance for a year I just happened to look at the letter and everything I wrote is what I was blessed with. Sisterfriends, stay encouraged http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif. Sisterly ALways http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif |
Darling1, that was SOOOO deep! I'm going to right out my list as soon as I get home!! You know, as I read the different posts, I'm beginning to see a pattern. Most of you ladies seem to be in touch with your spirituality. I have to confess, my personal relationship with God (sorry if I sound like that Power For Living commercial), is not as tight as it should be. I was brought up in the church from the day I was born, yet I realize how much I take the spiritual part of my life for granted. Dang, I didn't mean to get all serious on you guys...anyway, I'm bringing my butt back to church! My mom always told me that God has a good man waiting for me, all I had to do was give Him praise (not the good man, but God). Though I still think that's just her way of getting me to start going back to church on a regular (not just on holidays, when a big dinner is being served, etc.) Thanks for the enlightenment once again guys! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Mocha, I feel ya girl. I can tell you this, once you begin to work on your spiritual self the Devil tries to come in heavily and works overtime to steal your joy. It has been a hard road for me and I continue to struggle each day.
Sisterfriends I don't mean to come in the forum and sorta flip the topic but I felt comfortable enough to speak from my heart. AKA2D I meant to tell you that I thought your words were really inspiring http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif. Mocha if you ever need to chat about this more, your can always e-mail me. My internet ear and heart is always open http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif.!!! |
Piggy backing on darling1 for a minute...
Remember that sometimes (shoot, ALL the TIME) God knows what we need better than we do! If you earnestly seek *Him*, He will give you what you need. Sometimes we pray for tall dark and handsome, and God knows we need short, light and kinda o.k. looking because he is the God fearing man that is going to love us like Christ loves the Church. Whhoooo weeeee!! Now THAT is a REAL MAN. One who will readily lay his life down for you, one who puts you first in all things, one who delights when you grow and prosper. The amazing thing about God, is that when you are in tune with Him, he will make Mr. short, and o.k. looking look (to you) like Prince Charming-- big gut and all!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif |
Darling1, you know you're speaking right!! Whenever I'm on the right track, the devil seems to step right in! It's like he's sitting there in hell like "Nope, can't lose that one" Let's say it's a Saturday and I decide to go to church the next day. And I haven't been to church since...what was the last holiday?? Anyway, come Sunday morning...I can't find my church shoes, my hair didn't curl right, I spill something on my dress...it's horrible! I end up not going after all of that! To make it worse, he (satan) then really goes to work by suddenly producing some party for me to go to. Then I feel guilty like dang, look how this looks...it's Sunday, I couldn't go to church , but I can go to a party! Oh good grief! I did not mean to testify in this forum...forgive me ladies. Thanks for the invitation to e-mail you darling1...you know I will! You've touched on such an interesting and important topic!

Eclipse, I hear you on that one girl! I think God is teaching me that little by little through the years. When I was younger, I had a whole list of what my Mr. Right should look like, what he would drive, the kind of clothes he would wear (an actual list!), but as the years go by I realize that the quality of man is oh so much more important than what he looks like or what he drives, etc. Each time I look at that list, I cross something off. You know what the list has on it now? It consist of one line;8 words: A good man that's gonna treat me right! I'm a fool no longer!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
|
Eclipse you are so right, i did the list thang myself, but as i've grown i've realized that some of the things on the list really don't mean all that much to me anymore. When we allow God to complete us then we don't need unnecessary ornaments to make us happy. God knows better what we need and deep down that is trully what we all want, God's stamp of approval on our soul mate.

If he does NOT come from GOD, then I don't want him... |
I have to tell you Sexy Mocha that I have always found True Love when I wasn't looking. When You are just being yourself and enjoying yourself no matter what you are doing or where you are (as Paul said "I have learned that in whatever state I am in to be content") then and only then will it happen. I didn't meant to get religious here but I find the Word very inspiring. I am older and I know that when you are just busy being YOU and taking care of YOU then it will happen. I spent 4 years without a real relationship and then it happened. When "it" happened I still wasn't sure until one day I noticed he was doing things for me that let me know:
1) He came to cut my grass and his lawn mower broke. He cut my whole yard with just his weed wacker. (You will have to see my yard to appreciate this). Neighbors were walking by and joking to him "You the man!!" 2) I came home from work one day totally exhausted and sat in one spot for a whole hour saying nothing and he fixed dinner for me and my children. 3) He fixed everything around the house that was broken and even some things that weren't and constantly looking for something else to do. I could go on but like I said -- just don't go looking. TAKE CARE OF YOU!! ------------------ BE POSITIVE!!! |
Thanks for the wonderful advice! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif I believe what you're saying totally, but dang...I wish "it" would hurry up!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif
