3 Signs That He's a Keeper, not a Creeper

As the years go on it seems that it becomes harder for women to distinguish between a keeper and a "creeper." Many women mistake one for the other and soon get hurt. However, if you take a step back and watch a guy's actions it can be easier to see if he's a good person who can make your life more interesting, fun and fulfilling. Here are three simple signs to look for to help you decide if the guy you're seeing is someone you should keep around for the long haul.

He Thinks of You and Puts You First

One of the main complaints women have about men is that they are selfish and only think of themselves. So if you have a man in your life who thinks of you before he even thinks of his own needs, you truly have a treasure. For instance, after a shopping trip to the mall, does he brag about all the stuff he got for himself, or does he first pull out the thoughtful little gift he bought for you, just because? If he's out at a game with his buddies, but knows you're dealing with some difficult issues, does he call or text you to see how you're doing? Small things really do matter.

He's Consistent

There is nothing quite like having a boyfriend who you can count on. He does what he says and only says what he'll actually do. He's consistent in a way that gives you added peace and happiness. A flaky guy will leave you hanging, whenever and wherever and for little to no reason. Because of this you'll always be wary and mistrustful of him. A consistent man keeps his commitments to you and puts your mind at ease.

He Calls You on the Phone

In this age of social media and text messaging, getting someone to pick up the phone and actually talk is a challenge — even friends and family! So if the guy you're dating takes it upon himself to call you several times a week, that is one possible indication that he's a keeper. He wants to hear your voice, and most likely enjoys having conversations with you.

A guy should not complete you (only you can complete you), but he should be a positive supplement to your already wonderful life. Make sure that he is a keeper before you allow yourself to fall into an even deeper commitment with him.
