After many months and maybe years of being in a relationship with your man, you probably wonder whether or not he has any intentions of making you his wife at all. After all, you love him enough to want to spend the rest of your life with him, so it definitely should be something you want to know.
Well, you may never know if you cannot identify the signs that show that he has that in mind. The fact is, before a man decides to marry a woman, obviously, he must date her first to get to know her on a much deeper level.
Many men date, and they do so for so many reasons too. Some men date because of the following reasons:
- Some men date because they want to enjoy an emotional attachment with a woman.
- Others date because they want to enjoy sex, which is not a bad idea.
- Some men also date with the intention of marrying their partner.
And so, after knowing a few of the reasons why a man would date you, your man must, first of all, be in the third category before he can show you the signs we are about to examine in this article, that he intends to make you his wife.
When a man truly loves his woman, he does so in an intense manner. And in doing so, there can be many apparent signs that will tell you that he is finally ready to settle down with you and make you his wife. Regardless of how much a man may truly love someone, no one can really tell when he will make it his intention to say those magical words, or how you will know if you both have a future together as husband and wife.
But in any case, we got you covered in this article. For a man to be ready to marry, or for a man to make the decision to even want to marry at all, there must be several factors at work, some of which are as follows:
- His financial situation must be stable.
- Mentally, physically, and emotionally, he must be stable.
- He must truly love the woman in question.
- The timing must be right.
- He must know he is mature and, as such, ready to settle with you.
If your man is not in any of these conditions, do not bother yourself to think if he intends to marry you at all. Why? I hear you ask. Well, it is simple. Marriage is not a child’s play, where you decide to have a taste of it to see whether it is sweet or sour. And your man knows as much. For instance, take the first point.
When your man is not financially stable, he would not want to drag you down his mess to drown you in poverty, especially when he loves you and cares for your well-being. No matter how much you pester him, he will never let you know his intentions until he feels he is stable enough financially. Most of us men do this so that you do not see us as weak or incompetent when it comes to our ability to take care of you.
Although it might be that you both have been dating for quite a long time now, when he knows that he is not stable mentally, emotionally, or physically, you must know that at that particular point in time, marriage will not be a part of his thoughts at all. Aside from the two above points, it must be that he truly loves you before he will show the actual signs we will examine in this article that you are his future wife. If he does not show any signs of loving you, then it is not among his options to marry.
Now, about the fourth factor: when the timing is not right, marriage is out of the question, and as such, you won’t see the signs to be covered in this article. Most men are thoughtful beings, especially concerning the matter of marriage. Until they are at a certain level in this life, they are not getting married for fear of things going wrong. When a man’s timing is right, you are the one he sees himself with at the end of the altar.
Lastly, a man will know he is mature when he recognizes this within himself, particularly if he has been on a journey of self-discovery for some time and feels that he has learned enough to call it quits. It does not take an examination for a man to determine whether he is mature or not.
He will just know it. And when he indeed realizes this fact, and all the other factors are in place, or that he has hopes of them falling into place, he starts to give you the signs and cues that will show that he is ready and would want to make you his wife.
Mostly, when a man does not propose immediately, it does not mean he is scared or has cold feet. It is mostly for the reason that he does not want to scare you away, especially when he does not know what you think of getting married to a person like him.
Also, for the others you actually think are scared, well, that might be the case, but mostly it is because they probably have cold feet about the thoughts of telling you of their noble intentions.
However, as an alternative to letting you know how much he loves you to be his wife, he exhibits the following signs: Read on to understand the signs that will show that he is ready and that you will be his future wife.
8 Signs That Show That You Are His Future Wife
After knowing that your man is in the affirmative concerning the above factors, supposing he shows any of the signs about to be discussed, rest assured that you are a ‘semi-wife ‘. It won’t take long before you are married.
1. He Wants To Know Your Thoughts On Marriage
The first telltale sign that will let you know your man’s intention of making you his wife is when he asks for your thoughts about marriage.
When he actively engages you in talks about marriage, it is a strategy he is devising to know whether you are interested in marrying him at all. He would ask you questions such as:
- How do you see yourself in a few years? ( he asks this to know if you would talk about getting married and, most importantly, to whom.)
- How would you handle disagreements if you were both married? ( he will ask this to know if you will not smash his head in once he marries you sometime later.)
- What was your parent’s marriage like?
- How would you like our wedding?
- How many children would you want to have? How would you raise them? And many others.
He will try to know how you feel about marriage any time he gets the chance to talk about it. All this is a strategy to assess whether you are down with the idea of getting married.
Most men out there, due to their immaturity, are scared to even talk about marriage matters with their romantic partners. But if your man is able to freely converse with you on this topic, then he really does intend to marry you. The moment you see this, it is a sign that he intends to make you his wife.

2. He Plans The Future With You
Whenever he gets the chance, you will notice that he plans the future with you. Telling of future imaginary kids. Trips and honeymoons. Men are thoughtful beings, as I have said before.
Once they make it a mandate to marry you, they will let you know what the future holds for the two of you as well as your future kids. He will describe this future with you in such colors and glamour. One of the main reasons for this colorful imagination is to make sure you are not thinking of breaking up with him.
He will do so with a certain level of passion and make it feel as though this future is within arm’s reach. However, it does not mean that he cannot make that future come true. A man in love can command the moons, suns, and oceans.
3. He Makes Sure You Know His Family And Friends
Since the family is one of the main vehicles that promote marriages, he will make sure you know almost all of his family members. You must know that when he plans on making you his wife, you will know more than just the names of his parents and siblings.
He will make sure to take you to family gatherings, dinner parties, and any other occasion that will give him the chance to introduce you to them. If you do not get the chance to meet his family and friends, it is either that he is a player or that he does not see himself with you at that level of life yet. However, the moment you see this, you need to understand that you are his ride or die.
4. He Might Get Jealous
Especially when you spend time with other men than him. When a man intends to marry you, he sees you as his and his only. He knows that you are not a commodity to be shared with other men, who probably have an interest in you.
As much as this behavior might make him come off as an insecure man, you need to understand that it is a clear indicator that he views you as his wife already, and as such, your interactions with other men are a huge annoyance to him as they probably prickle his heart a bit.
When you see this, do not get angry at him for being a little insecure because he is the only person who knows what he sees in you, which makes him not want any suspicious men around you.
5. He Supports You
When he has the intention of making you his wife, he will sacrifice everything to make sure you are comfortable and have nothing bothering you. When you decide to get something going for yourself, he makes it a priority and makes sure to give you anything that will help you in your cause.
And in doing all of these things for you, he will never show any sign of reluctance or indicate anything that shows that you are probably becoming a thorn in his flesh. He will give it all freely while wanting nothing in return. This should indicate to you how much this man is sacrificing for the sake of your happiness and comfort and should only mean one thing: that he wants to make you his wife.
6. Spends Time With You
Another indicator that he wants to spend the rest of his life with you is when he makes it a priority to spend as much time with you as possible. He does not just want to spend time with you for no reason. He does in his attempt to get more intimate with you.
By intimacy, I do not mean sex, but rather anything that can help you both grow deeply in connection, love, and understanding of each other’s needs. When he does this, he wants to make sure that emotionally, psychologically, and physically, you both are bonded, so that the idea of marriage may not seem appealing to you. This is done in an attempt to sell you the idea of marriage.
7. He Wants To Meet Your Family
He will never tell you why he wants to meet your family, but all that is in an attempt to familiarise himself with members of your family. When he sees you are comfortable with him meeting your family, he goes to make sure he has a good impression on them such that once he decides to finally bend his knees and ask for your hand in marriage, they will be content and comfortable in accepting him into the family. So when you realize your man is giving you such inkling, make sure to not disappoint him.
8. He Has Discreetly Asked You Ring Size
Finally, a more obvious sign that you are going to be a wife is when he asks you about your ring size albeit discreetly in a way you would not give mind. Be sure to know that, he has made it his mandate to make you his wife.
Final Words
When your man has not shown these signs to you, take heart, he probably is going through some problem that has taken his mind off the topic of marriage. Or probably, the factors we talked about earlier in this article, might be the reason. Maybe he is just not ready.
If that is the case, do not pressure him too much. Give him time to sort things out, and if he does not object to you helping him, do so. It will even get him thinking about the topic more. And once he is out and those factors are in place for him, he will definitely make you his wife.
