Dating can often feel like sorting through a pile of dirty laundry. There are so many guys out there who just don’t know how to treat women! In a world of duds, how do you know if you’ve stumbled upon an exceptional guy? What are the signs that he’s so much more special than your Average Joe?

He Texts to Say Hi
It’s rare to find a guy who texts you in the middle of the day just to say "Hi". If you happen to find him, hold tight! A guy who cares enough to shoot a text message is sensitive, caring and thinking about you even while he’s busy at work. Don’t take random texts for granted—they are signs that he just might be the one!

He Talks About His Family
There’s nothing more special than a guy who feels close to his family and wants to have a family of his own. If a guy is talking about his family a lot, chances are they are an important part of his life. A great way to see how a guy will treat you in the future is to observe how he treats his mother and father.

He Knows a Thing or Two About Diamonds
Although the media has made it seem like men love buying their girlfriends jewelry, this isn’t usually the case. Most men would rather watch football on a Sunday afternoon than shop, especially for expensive jewelry. If your guy happens to have an appreciation for gemstones and jewelry, start picking out your engagement ring now! After all, what’s more attractive than a guy who buys his girl a diamond every once in a while?!
