A lot of women find it pretty easy to figure out if the guy they are seeing is The One. Some of us know by the middle of the first date. He wants kids. Check. He loves his career but says family comes first. Check. He has all of his teeth. Check. But for guys, figuring out if a woman has long-term potential can be a complicated process. Sure, there are red flags that send them running (like the lady who tattooed a guy's name to her face hours after meeting him), but for the most part, it's subtle behaviors that help you evolve from Miss Right Now to Mrs. Right. Take a look at the 10 surefire ways to make a guy fall in love with you.

Think you know everything you need to know about your man? The experts say a great relationship requires really knowing what makes their partner tick. Whether your romance is new or decades long, there are still ways to strengthen your love. All it takes is being aware of crucial bits of information guaranteed to take your connection to another level. Check out the 10 things every woman should know about her man:

My main man, Wayman Harris, Sr.In the quiet, lush backwoods of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, there’s a little white rambler with red shutters perched atop a fairly steep hill. It looks like something cut and pasted from the front of a gift shop postcard, encircled by sky-high trees and surrounded by a sprawling yard that’s much prettier to look at than it is easy to mow. It’s the house my grandfather built, literally with his own hands. Back when he was a young man with a gold tooth, a wavy conk, and a mischievous smile, he kept my Nana in the family way for five consecutive years. So after long, laborious days working at a steel mill, he would punch out and get to building a home. Just like that. No 5-hour Energy, no Red Bull, no jolts of caffeine from some fancy-pants Starbucks drink. 

Couples in love often do silly things to express their emotions. It’s one of the great things about being in love -- feeling happy and goofy and like you want to shout it to the world, because people need to know about a love as great as yours. A Florida man recently tried to show his girlfriend that his love for her was sky-high, by releasing balloons to float to the heavens, but now he’s facing potential jail time for the stunt.

Forty-year-old Anthony Brasfield was with his girlfriend in a Motel 6 parking lot on the morning of February 17 when he released 12 heart-shaped balloons in an apparent declaration of affection. What he didn’t know was that a Florida Highway Patrol officer witnessed it too -- and subsequently charged him with an environmental crime.

The hardest thing about being in a relationship is probably trying to decide if you should end it. The second hardest? Whether you should give it another chance -- especially if you've already broken up. There comes a time in most everyone's relationship when you think about throwing in the towel. And what if you do, but then your significant other wants you back? What if he promises to change? What if he swears up and down, back and forth, that that thing that tore you apart will never, ever happen again? Do you believe him? Do you risk getting your heart broken all over again?

If you're thinking about breathing new life into a dead relationship, here are seven things you should consider first.

Love stories are the greatest -- especially when they have endearing details of fate and connection. Such is Conner and Erin’s story, because Erin’s brother’s heart beats in Conner’s chest.

In 2005, Seattle-native Erin Roberts' big brother Kellen was killed at the way-too-young-to-die age of 22, and his family decided to donate his organs so other lives could be saved. Mom Nancy recently wrote, “We were so grateful that Kell’s organs were able to be donated, and thrilled, as we know Kellen would have been, that he was able to save six lives. It gave us such joy and hope in the middle of our enormous loss.”

For many people, getting married means you are committed to one person forevermore (generally) and that usually means your body is off-limits to others. But for 35-year-old, mom of two, Susan* that isn't exactly the case. To fully understand the fact that Susan doesn't know how to be monogamous, we must also understand that she never was. She and her husband Frank* had an open relationship before they got married. They were together, but allowed the other to be with other people. It worked for them though they had a no questions asked policy. They didn't decide to be monogamous until they learned Susan was pregnant and they got married. Now she's missing those open relationship days. I'll let Susan explain. 

Say your marriage is on the rocks, and to help repair the relationship, you and your husband decide to see a couple’s therapist. The therapist suggests that the two of you begin to see her separately, so she can work with each of you individually. Then she bangs your husband and advises you to get a divorce.

Nightmare.

That’s exactly what happened to one couple in Texas who went to see Sheila Loven, who is now on trial for sexual assault for the incident. The Arlington couple had no idea that she was using therapy to collect their deepest secrets and use them to manipulate the wife into leaving and the husband into sleeping with her.
