How do you know when someone is truly committed?

Cupid’s Advice:

It can be tough to tell if the person you’re dating is planning on being in the relationship for the long haul.  Cupid has some ideas and how to tell if he’s truly committed:

1. There for you: When the going gets tough, and your partner stands by you in a time of crisis, it’s safe to say he’s not a flight risk.

2. All about PDA: If your mate isn’t afraid to sing your praises in front of anyone and everyone, it’s more than likely true love.

3. Don’t care what people think: When it comes to your relationship, sometimes there will be naysayers.  If your partner doesn’t seem to care about the critics, he’s there for the count.
