What Does It Mean When A Man Says He Needs You?

Relationship Rules Editorial Team Relationship Rules Editorial Team | November 16, 2019 | 1 min read

Has he recently told you that he needs you? It’s one of the most humbling and romantic things one can hear from someone they love. It means that he can’t see his life without you, he needs you in his life, and he wants you to accept take his hand. He wants your support, he needs your love, and he is a vocal man who is being completely open about his feelings.

He wants your kind words, your optimism, and your strength. It’s a weak moment for him, and he’s candid with you about his emotions. He is a real man, a man who’s not afraid to show his feelings out to the world! Appreciate it and be there for him, he needs you. Be his support system; don’t let him be alone in his time of need.

How do you know if a man is serious about you?

When a man is serious about you, it means he’s ready to take the next step in life with you! His actions will show that he’s willing to welcome you into his life, and he wants you to share it with him through the good and the bad. He’s serious about your emotions, your feelings, he’s earnest about your love and faith in him, and he wants you to know that he is ready to take the next step with you. When a man is serious about you, it means he has nothing to hide from you. You know him, inside and out. He’s like an open book with you.

The signs are there. Some men like to wait; others will say it whenever they find the chance! But as always, actions speak louder than words. And his actions will tell you everything you need to know.

i have been talking to a guy for a little while we connect so well together when we have a conversation we put our heads together and we maintain eye contact i feel like this man can see my soul he knows what i have been through and what im going through when we make love he always wants me to look him in his eyes he melts me everytime . it scares me because i feel a way around this man that i have never felt before i can call him my bestfriend. when i left to go out of town he begs me to come back and he says he needs me and he went out of his way to beg me to pick up the phone so he could see me before i leave this man scares me to death i dont want to feel these feelings

Or they are a narcissist only interested in using and controlling. They “need” your compliance and your permission, so you will be led by guilt not to leave them. I would rather be wanted not needed. I’d run for the hills!
