1/7

Here's what he may be doing

Not all men are the same. There are some who have their lives revolving around you and some who take you for granted in a relationship. One aspect all partners dread is when their partner pretends to love them and sadly there are many cases where this fear is reality! To save yourself from this heartbreak, be on the lookout for these 6 signs that a man is pretending to love you.

2/7

He is not affectionate

If a man truly loves you, he will show affection towards you in various ways. If he is not affectionate or doesn't make physical contact, it might be a sign that he is not truly invested in the relationship.

3/7

He doesn't listen

A man who truly loves you will make an effort to listen to what you have to say and understand your perspective. If he doesn't listen or seems disinterested in what you have to say, it could be a sign that he is pretending to love you.

4/7

He doesn't make plans

If a man is truly in love with you, he will make plans for the future and include you in them. If he doesn't make any plans or doesn't seem committed to building a future together, it could be a sign that he is not truly invested in the relationship.

5/7

He is not reliable

A man who loves you will make an effort to be there for you and be reliable. If he frequently cancels plans or doesn't follow through on promises, it could be a sign that he is not fully committed to the relationship.

6/7

He doesn't prioritize you

A man who loves you will prioritize your needs and make you a priority in his life. If he doesn't put effort into the relationship or doesn't make you a priority, it could be a sign that he is not truly invested in the relationship.

7/7

He doesn't share his feelings

A man who loves you will be open and honest about his feelings. If he is not forthcoming with his emotions or doesn't seem to be emotionally invested in the relationship, it could be a sign that he is pretending to love you.


It's important to remember that these are just signs and not definite proof that a man is pretending to love you. Only he can know for sure what is in his heart.
