10 Eye-Opening Signs He Pretends to Love You

When we’re in a relationship, we hope it’ll last forever because we all want true love. But one of life’s saddest things is breaking up with someone we love. Yet, there’s something even worse than that: staying in a relationship where your partner just pretends to love you. Imagine being in a relationship and noticing signs that your partner is pretending to love you.

Here are ten signs that he might not truly love you and is only pretending to do so.

He doesn’t consider you a priority

When someone truly loves you, they make you a priority in their life. If your partner always puts other things ahead of spending time with you or doesn’t consider your feelings, it might be a sign that their love is not genuine.

He wants a secret relationship

Transparency is the key to a healthy relationship. If your partner insists on keeping your relationship hidden from others or avoids public displays of affection, it could be a red flag. A loving partner should be proud to be with you and eager to share their love openly with the world.

You don’t know your place in his life

A loving partner will always make you feel secure and cherished. If you find yourself constantly questioning where you stand in his life or feeling like you’re in the shadows, it’s time to have an open and honest conversation to know where you fit in each other’s lives.

He doesn’t think of you in his spare time

When someone cares about you deeply, you’ll be on their mind even when they’re busy. If your partner rarely communicates with you during their free time and seems distant, it may indicate that you’re not a significant part of their thoughts and emotions.

He doesn’t want to talk about your future together

In a loving relationship, it’s normal to talk about your future together. If your partner avoids these conversations or doesn’t take them seriously, it might mean they are not committed and don’t truly care about you.

He avoids communication

Communication is the foundation of any successful relationship. If your partner constantly dodges important discussions or does not seem interested in hearing about your thoughts and feelings, it could be a sign that they are not fully invested in the relationship.

Physical intimacy is more important for him

While physical intimacy is essential in a relationship, it shouldn’t be the sole focus. If your partner prioritizes physical aspects over emotional connections, it might indicate they are not as emotionally invested in the relationship as you are.

He hides things from you

Honesty and trust are vital components of love. If your partner is secretive about their activities, and whereabouts, or hides information from you, it can lead to doubts and insecurities. A genuine loving partner will be open and transparent about their life with you.

He’s always unavailable

A partner who genuinely loves you will make time for you, no matter how busy they are. If your partner is consistently unavailable or makes excuses to avoid spending time with you, it may be a sign that they are not as committed to the relationship as they should be.

He doesn’t want you to meet his friends and family

Introducing your partner to friends and family is a significant step in a loving relationship. If your partner avoids these meetings or keeps you separate from their inner circle, it could be a sign that they are not serious about building a future with you.

  1. This actually sounds like my relationship at the moment. But I still manage to have that contact with him why.

    1. Because you are in love with him just like i am with my partner. Same thing , all these apply for me !
      Love is unfortunately blind, and you always hope for better!
      I personally think i don’t respect myself enough to admit that this is one sided love !

  2. This is actually my current relationship.. Its saddens me that all of these signs are present and I can’t do anything about it. I’m here and being so much in love with him. What to do now with this kind of situation. 🙁

  3. A very interesting topic arised. Hoeevrr, there is more to it than stated in the article above. Moreover, thous such articles probsbly save an enormous number of people from self-destruction, a contra effect is also a possibke result because it doesn^t leave any space for people who may have many flaws and who make a huge pile of wrong moves due to many different reasons, but on the other side they might be just dreamers walking down the Earth being only human, and to earr is very human, and capable to love and cherish you for the rest of your life and even further till the end of time. Please, think about this kind of perspective. Respect for such intiatives as yours. God bless us all. Hopefully, my comment will be cosidered for this article to be modified as soon as possible.

  4. Yep, i guess that’s me. I day half and half. He was so I’m love with me but now not so much. He told me I annoyed him by calling him all the time and his phone going off. I do admit, I just wish I was there to care for him while he is going thru medical things but no, he doesn’t want me there. I love him so much O hurt, cried for him, miss him but guess it is to much. lol. So now 1 or 2 text a day that’s it. maybe just 1. I guess I know it’s over, but I’m still hanging on.Signed Dupod.

  5. I think all of those apply in my relationship I’m always the one who loves more and I’m always the one who gets the shitty end of the Stick.

  6. I need a serious relationship—with a woman I can love and who can love me, too. I am ready to love her with all my heart. Please connect me with a serious woman.

  7. ” He wants a secret relationship ”

    At some comment I disagrees about the ” public displays of affection” it depends on countries and cultures as well.
    If you have Asian from (South East Asia or East Asia) partner never expect to do this for you. Bec it’s Sacred. PDA is kinda treating for asking seeking attention to the crowd.
