We know a person loves us when that person consciously and consistently behaves in ways that mostly makes us feel good about ourselves e.g. they are interested in us, care for us, consider our thoughts and feelings, try to protect us, encourage us, spend money on us, listen to us and/or whatever else makes a specific person feel great.
If both partners meet the other partner's need to feel good about themselves - then I believe the relationship is very likely to succeed.
