OK, so here’s the scenario: you’ve been together for quite some time now, and you know that he’s your whole world. But does he feel the same way? Is he as afraid of losing you as you are afraid of losing him?
Women are more in touch with their feelings and know how to communicate them. If he makes you feel uncomfortable – you confront him. If he makes you feel like you’re on cloud nine – you shower him with love. If you’re afraid of losing him – you tell him what has been bothering you.
But men are a different species. They aren’t the best at expressing their emotions. Often, they keep us wondering about their true intentions.
So, how do you know when someone doesn’t want to lose you? And how do they show that?
If you’re one of those women that have been wondering, “What makes a man afraid of losing you?” then keep reading. In this article, we’ll explore 7 top signs he doesn’t want to lose you.
7 Signs He Is Afraid of Losing You
1. You always come first
One of the most obvious signs he doesn’t want to lose you is that you always come first. For example, if you’ve had a bad day and you need a shoulder to cry on, he wouldn’t think twice about comforting you.
We all know that men can get a bit awkward when they have to be there for somebody and don’t know how to react when something bad has happened. However, if he doesn’t want to lose you, you’ll come first, and he’ll be there for you.
That also applies to the opposite – if you’ve had the most amazing day and you’re in a good mood, he’ll be there to share those emotions with you. If he’s afraid of losing you, you’ll be his priority no matter what.
2. He wants to meet your needs
If he really cares about you, he would make everything in his power to meet your needs. He would go the extra mile of showing you how much you mean for him by giving you gifts on random occasions, and who knows, even with no occasion at all. Giving gifts doesn’t come naturally to all men, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you. Small gestures are equally important signs that he doesn’t want to lose you.
But meeting your needs doesn’t have to be about presents and gestures. Sometimes how much he loves you shows the most when he makes compromises. If a man truly cares about you, he would want to make you feel loved and heard regardless of what that means.

3. You talk through your issues after a fight
A sign that he’s afraid of losing you is that he hates having fights with you. He would avoid any kind of confrontation and, as we already mentioned, he would be the one to make compromises.
But a relationship isn’t always roses and rainbows. When two people are in a committed relationship, it’s only natural to have an argument every once in a while. In that case, if he’s afraid of losing you, he would want to talk through your issues together in order to maintain the peace between you two.
Maintaining healthy communication is crucial for the relationship. If he truly cares about you, he will be open and honest about his feelings. After a fight, he would make you feel heard, but he would also make sure you understand his needs.
If you’ve had a confrontation and if he’s afraid of losing you, he will want to be on good terms as soon as possible. Your fight will last for a few hours or a maximum a day before you’re good again. And he will make sure of that.
4. He still gets jealous sometimes
Let’s say it how it is – if a guy doesn’t want to lose you, there’s no chance on Earth that he won’t be a least slightly jealous of any other guy in your surroundings. That’s not a particularly “manly” quality; women also get jealous when they’re in love. But if a guy is jealous, that cuts right through his self-confidence.
It’s possible that he compares himself with your exes without telling you that he does it. But we, as women, know how to read signs and follow our intuition, so every time you notice that he’s weird when you mention one of your exes, you know why he does it. Also, he might be comparing himself to all your guy friends.
If that’s the case, don’t make him insecure. Exactly the opposite – make him feel loves and reassure him that there’s nothing he has to worry about. Just the fact that you’re with him and not them is an ego boost by itself. One thing’s for sure – if he gets jealous, he definitely doesn’t want to lose you.

5. He talks about your future with him
Picturing your future together is natural for any couple that has serious intentions together. But for many guys, it’s scary to think about the future and make plans. Men often have “the bachelor syndrome,” where they find it hard to commit. But if he talks about your future as a couple, he definitely doesn’t want to lose you.
If he’s afraid of losing you, he’ll make it very clear that he wants a future with you. Don’t be surprised if you find yourselves, in the middle of the night, talking about travel destinations, dream houses, and possible marriage locations. He doesn’t want to lose you if he images your future together so vividly that you can almost feel like it has already happened, like a memory more than a dream.
6. He cares about your family and friends (and your relationship with them)
Let’s get one thing straight – a man doesn’t have to like your friends and family. After all, he fell in love with you – your qualities, appearance, and character. But if he truly loves you and if he’s afraid of losing you, he’ll strive to have a healthy relationship with your friends and family. Even if he doesn’t like them, he’ll make compromises. He’ll go on family dinners, your best friend’s birthday party, and your sister’s housewarming event.
Therefore, he has to respect your friends and family, and he has to be considerate about your relationship with them. He’ll put an extra amount of effort into being on friendly terms with everyone that you care about. He has to love all parts of you, including the people who are dear to you.

7. He always finds time for you
How do you know if he doesn’t want to lose you? For many women, the answer is simple – he will always find time for you. If he has no problem canceling all of his plans just to spend time with you, then you have him hooked.
Spending quality time together is incredibly important for maintaining a healthy relationship. And if you see him constantly putting effort into spending time together with you, it’s also important for him. This is especially true if he doesn’t have much free time and still wants to spend it with you. This means that you are his priority no matter what, and you will never feel that you smother him because he always enjoys your company.
