1. El que hará lo imposible por hacerte sonreír

Quédate con el chico que hace todo lo posible por hacerte reír. Será un soplo de aire fresco cada día que pase contigo.

El mero hecho de que haga todo lo posible por hacerte sonreír dice mucho de él. Quiere aumentar tu felicidad y hacer tu vida más divertida. Es tan sencillo y, sin embargo, ignoramos la importancia de este rasgo.

2. The one who doesn’t make texting difficult

Citas modernas ha convertido el momento de enviar mensajes de texto en una cuestión científica. Decidir cuándo enviar un mensaje y cuándo no se ha convertido en algo terriblemente doloroso. Esperar mucho tiempo a recibir una respuesta sin esfuerzo es aún peor.

So if a guy takes the initiative, texts first and you can really tell that he has put a substantial amount of effort into the text, keep him. He won’t be one who will mess with your mind.

3. The one who doesn’t mind earning your trust first

No matter how much time it takes,a guy who is genuinely into you will understand that trust has to be built. He can’t expect you to trust his words and welcome him into your bed after a few dates.

It doesn’t always go that way, at least not when you are looking for something that will last. A guy who takes dating seriously will never leave you questioning where you stand with him. He will let you know.

4. El que te demuestra que eres importante

Puede reconocer fácilmente un guy who isn’t worth the chase. He will be interested but not interested enough. He will make excuses and he will often be ‘busy’.

Las palabras no tienen sentido si no van acompañadas de hechos. Un chico que te dedique tiempo pase lo que pase, que te llame y concierte una cita con unos días de antelación y se acuerde de seguir en contacto contigo, es al que hay que perseguir.

5. El que te sacará de quicio de vez en cuando

He might correct your grammar, take fries from your plate, say something stupid or uncalled for and do some things that get on your nerves and that’s okay.

He’s not supposed to be perfect. You are not either and there are surely things about you that get on his nerves too. But the thing is that he provokes a reaction and never leaves you feeling indifferent.

You are supposed to make compromises and meet in the middle about the things you don’t see eye to eye on. If that happens, you should definitely hold on to him.

6. The one who’s brutally honest

El tipo al que nunca debes perseguir se andará con rodeos hasta que vaya al grano. No dirá nada sobre su paradero y pondrá excusas falsas, una tras otra.

The guy who gives it to you straight, who says things that don’t benefit him in any way but he says them because they are true, that’s the guy who will never lie to, cheat on or make a fool out of you.

7. El que se apunta por aburrido y por divertido

He won’t care if you are going grocery shopping, clubbing, playing video games, going bungee jumping or leaning silently on one another; as long as you are together, he is okay with anything.

He won’t be with you only when it’s convenient or because he doesn’t have anything better to do; he will be there because there is no place he would rather be.

8. El que se asegura de que sepas que eres la única con la que sale

The long-winded speech about how labels are not important and how keeping things casual is the best way to go won’t be a part of the repertoire of a guy who deserves to be chased.

He will have a whole different approach. He will let you know that he is interested only in you and that he wants to make things exclusive. He won’t keep his options open or lead you on.

Todos estos rasgos son valiosos y merece la pena prestarles atención. Pero hay una que va por delante de todas ellas: El único hombre que vale la pena perseguir es el que te persigue a ti.
