How do you know whether somebody loves you or whether they are using you for your looks or your job or your house keeping skills?

Usually, if you have to ask this... that's a problem. There are a million-and-one ways to know if somebody loves you for YOU; or if they're using you. I think it's safe to say that people are loved, don't ever wonder about this.

Personally, I just know when I’m being used. I have had enough experience that I can pick up on the behaviors and attitudes of men I date that do not really love me, and from that point it’s over! If they are using you for your job, money, family, skills, etc they may not be affectionate towards you very often or at all. They may avoid saying “I love you”. They may only spend time with you when it’s convenient for them or when you’re spending your money. They may brag about your skills or job to others in public or online, but in private they don’t pay you as much attention. If they’re using you for your looks, they will sleep with you and post about you or show you off to others but may not spend quality time with you or have real conversations with you. They may only be interested in a conversation when it is sexual in nature. They may seem aloof or uncaring towards your feelings or problems.

Just by what they put into the relationship. If they are not doing their part , dump them fast.
