We can infer from the fact that you are reading this that you are actively flirting with a married person, either knowingly or unknowingly. So, before you even start looking for indications that a married man is in love with you, take note of the following advice. There's really only one thing to say about married men: don't hang around with them!

Yes, you and he both like him, but the man is already taken. He is married and may even have kids, which just screams "mess."

Yes, it's a difficult situation to be in, especially if you believe he has feelings for you. Married guys frequently inform women that he intends to divorce his wife and

But as you are aware, that rarely occurs. They really want to be with you; it's just that they also don't want to ruin their family in the process.

Do you see the predicament they are in? But let's not advance too quickly. You need to ascertain where his emotions are right now.

Is this just innocent flirting? Or is this something much more serious? Does he just want to sleep with you? Is he attracted to you? In other words, is a married man in love with you?

In either case, it's up to you to decide how to handle this circumstance. Yes, you can have an affair with him, but keep in mind that you might suffer consequences as a result and that it won't always work in your advantage.

You should also consider his wife and possibly any children he may have. He may be the married one, but do you really want to think about all of this?

The alternative is to stop engaging in flirty conduct and conversation and give yourself time to discover someone who is genuinely available and willing to love you completely. Let's first take a closer look at the situation.

The most obvious signs a married man is in love with you

His eyes aren’t on his wife; they’re on you. Here are the most obvious signs a married man is in love with you, and wants you to fall in love with him.

1. You can feel it

When it comes to feelings, we’re humans created with instinct; you know when someone has feelings for you.

It’s in their eyes; it’s in the energy, it’s in the way they laugh or smile at you.

You just know there’s something more going on inside of them. Don’t doubt yourself or what your instinct is telling you.

2. You are the object of his leisure time.

He should be spending his free time with his wife and children, but he's with you instead. Now, this is a significant indication that he has more profound feelings for you.

You don't have a partner, so you can do whatever you want with your free time. He has a family, though, that he ought to be spending time with.

3. He reaches out to you.

Some married guys are more assertive, while other married men are *as they should be* afraid to move. They will therefore approach you but may not necessarily establish physical contact.

They will do anything they can to close the distance between you, whether it be by leaning over you, standing next to you, or sitting next to you.

4. He touches you

We’re not talking about highly sexually touching; for example, he grabs your ass. You would know right away what his intentions are.

What we’re talking about is subtle touching, for example, when he opens the door for you and places his hand on your lower back. He brushes the hair out of your face, rubs your shoulders.

This doesn’t necessarily mean love, but it means he’s sexually attracted to you. Now, if this touching isn’t with your consent, then that’s a problem.

5. He talks about his marriage with you

Not every married man will do this. Some prefer to pretend they’re not married at all. But others will use their marriage as a way to get closer to you.

Maybe he’s having problems in his marriage, and he chooses to discuss them with you. He’s not talking to you about his problems because he wants advice, he wants to show you that his marriage is on the rocks and he’s on his way out.

6. Where is his ring?

You know he’s a married man, but whenever you’re around him, there’s no evidence of his marriage. When you look at his hands, they’re bare, not a ring in sight. You know the old saying, “out of sight, out of mind.”

Not seeing his ring reduces his guilt, and he gives himself the impression that he’s single and available for you, even though he’s not. However, do remember that not all married men wear rings, so this is just one to keep in mind.

7. He makes excuses to talk to you

He will say whatever he has to say to get another five minutes alone with you. And it makes sense. If someone really likes you, they’ll try to spend as much time with you as possible.

Since he’s married, he can’t blatantly ask you out; he needs to create situations to spend time with you.

8. He is a touch too amiable with you.

Perhaps you both work together; after all, it's common for individuals to get along well at the office. However, there is a distinct difference between being cordial with your coworkers and being a touch too cordial. He is very softly crossing the boundary, rather than taking a giant stride over it.

9. He exhibits jealousy.

If he's merely an acquaintance or coworker, there is no justification for him to be envious. Why would he feel resentful? He has a wife and children of his own. However, he feels threatened by other guys who are close to you and occasionally acts like a lover as a result.

One of the weirdest signs a married man is in love with you is when he tries to mark his territory. What he seems to forget is he has a partner already!

10. He goes above and beyond for you

He will go above and above to make you happy; we don't just mean that he holds the door open for you. He will get you lunch at lunchtime and even a coffee every morning.

A free cup of coffee in the morning is lovely, but you know there's more to it than that.

Remember that he is still a MARRIED man after reading these indications that he is in love with you. Always keep that in mind before acting, as the last thing you want is to be cast aside and left with a broken heart.
