Does he talk about the future? If he talks about purchasing a house, having kids or moving and you are involved these are the big red flashing signs that he is expecting you to be in his life for a long while. The little signs aren't so obvious, but if he wants to spend time with you instead of his best friend on Saturday night, then he is hooked on you for sure. Does he talk about his finances with you? This isn't usually something that is talked about in a casual like relationship, unless you have a man that likes to complain about money, that's just never alternative. If he wants you to be a part of his financial decisions, then you are someone he trusts and that's a great commitment sign.
How much time does he spend on you? If he spends all of his time on you, it's not healthy and you shouldn't expect that from him, plus you'll go crazy if you don't get time away from each other. Do you get a million phone calls a day (stalker), or one in the middle of the day (just to say I love you)? The call during lunch, when it's not expected means he's thinking of you during the day, this is what a committed man will do. Does he plan dates or special nights with you (this shouldn't be one sided)? If he asks you to go somewhere or plans a night for you, then your definitely not a booty call.
Does your man share? A committed man will share his life with you. You will know about his career, his goals and his family. Is he concerned with something, if so and he shares it with you, he wants you to comfort him, and feels comfortable letting you do so. When he's excited or happy about something that happened who does he call? You should be the one to hear the good news first, if he is ready to make you a wife.
Once you've answered all of these questions, you should know if you have a man that is committed to you. If you have a committed man, who still can't say "I love you," or that he will move it or set a date, give him time. Men have hard times with trust or past relationships, just like women do, if he is still getting over being burned that doesn't mean he isn't committed to you, he may just be afraid of admitting it.
