Reaching soul-mate status with a guy is really about three things - trust, commitment and sex. Trust is the most important of the three. Guys, just like us girls, need to feel that they can trust the person they’re with. Guys also want to feel like the person they’re in a relationship with trusts them. So what can you do today to take the trust to the next level?

Share something intimate or embarrassing with your guy. "By sharing your feelings about something that is bothering you and makes you feel vulnerable, it shows your guy that you can open up to him and trust him," said DDHG contributor The Average Guy. "It gives him the signal that you trust him and it’s okay for him to share something intimate with you because in a guy’s eyes, it takes a great deal of trust to be vulnerable with a girl and share deep feelings.

Commitment is integral to reaching soul-mate status with your guy. A guy needs to know that you’re in it with him for the long-haul and not just when things are going great. "Guys have a fear of commitment," said Average Guy. "They want to commit to one woman, but they’re not sure it’s going to last and they may end up hurt." So what can you do to boost the commitment quotient in your relationship? "Show him that you’re not going to kick him when the chips are down.

The best thing a girl can do in this area is to be adventurous and not be judgmental," said Average Guy. "If a guy suggests something in bed, unless you’re dead-set against it, give it a try. Don’t tell him that what he desires is wrong, bad or abnormal. Instead, show him that the trust and commitment you have in your relationship extends to the bedroom as well. You’ll see how close you both become and he’ll be calling you soul-mate before you know it."
