Let’s face it: Men can be difficult to understand. If your guy isn’t upfront about his feelings, you may be wondering whether or he’s really in love or still playing the field. While there are no sure-fire ways to tell–as every many is different–certain signs can help you tell if your man is in love.

Here are a few from shine.com:

Eye Contact

Harvard psychologist Zick Rubin did a study that determined that people in love look at each other 75 percent of the time, while those who are not in love only look at each other 30 to 60 percent of the time. They are also slower to look away when something or someone distracts them.

His Plans

If a guy is in love with you, he’s planning a future that includes you. Pay attention to what he says about his dreams five or 10 years from now and see how often those dreams include you. For example, he may talk about buying a house together or going on vacation with you.

Empathy

He may be showing more empathy toward your feelings, such as picking up on it when you’re feeling sad, nervous or excited. You may also see that he starts to exhibit the same feelings as you, sharing in your emotions.

Trust

A guy who is in love will trust you. He may tell you a secret that his best friend told him not to tell or he may allow you to answer the phone at his home.
