5 signs you’re in a relationship with a truly loyal person
1. They delete their apps
This is the first sign you have a truly loyal partner. This may sound trivial, but it’s very important.
Tinder, Bumble, you name it. Many people will get into a new relationship but keep these apps hanging around. But if you’re in a relationship that entails exclusivity, which means those apps should be getting deleted.
2. They show their emotions
A truly loyal partner won’t be afraid to show their emotions and open up to you about how they feel.
They’ll be willing to tell you the truth even about things you might not want to hear. For instance, maybe they’re not doing well lately or maybe they have been in touch with an ex-partner who has them feeling confused and upset.
The emotionally sincere partner will never use their emotions to manipulate or gaslight you. They will not expect you to be responsible or answer for their emotions. They will simply be honest and share how they feel with you, rather than putting that as a burden or expectation on you.
3. They open up about the past
The truly loyal person is not looking to hide any part of themselves because they want to be loved for who they really are, not an idealized version you may have of them.
They expect the same from your end:
An honest look at your past when possible and how you succeeded or failed to live up to certain difficult moments and experiences that came your way, whether in relationships or any other area.
4. They talk about the future with you
This is another sign you’re in a relationship with a truly loyal person. A loyal partner isn’t scared of talking about the future with you.
This is not to say they’ll make promises they don’t mean.
But they will be perfectly fine considering the future of the relationship and where it might lead.
They aren’t trying to play any games or hedge their bets, and they are willing to think about the future.
5. They communicate with you
A loyal partner will be interested in chatting with you and talking about what they feel in the relationship and what they think and see in life.
Conversation is often a very solid basis of seeing how a relationship will go, though it’s about the depth of what you talk about rather than just how much.
A partner who is loyal will let you see who they really are on the inside and open up and communicate with you in a real way.
