You can tell if someone loves you even by the way they handle your shoes. You can tell when someone loves you by the time they will take to look in your eyes, the patience to explore the depths of your mind, and the touches to explore your body.

You can tell if someone loves you when your problems are their problems, not because you had to ask, but because they care. The way they check on you when your I'll, change themselves for the better and when they can no longer wear a mask with you.

When someone loves you they put in the work and I don't mean at a job. They do the therapy, eat better, learn to communicate and most of all learn the way you need to be loved. They study you and their mind will take notes of the small things that matter.

They would never hurt you or themselves over and over. They wouldn't compromise your mental or physical well-being. The difference between immature and mature love, being loved for survival and being loved unconditionally, is a difference.
