Signs Your Guy Has Golden Retriever Energy (And You Should Keep Him)
We often talk about the guys we donβt want. The bare minimum man, the guy who just keeps breadcrumbing youβtheyβre the dregs and weβre better off without them. Then there are the guys who we feel lucky to have in our lives. The ones who treat us well and make us feel loved. Have you heard of golden retriever energy? Guys who give off golden retriever vibes have the warm, floppy energy and positive attitude of a loyal dog breedβand I mean this in a good way. Does your guy have this vibe? If so, youβve found something special.
Heβs overjoyed every time he sees you and he isnβt afraid to show it.
You donβt have to wonder how he feels. He isnβt coy or cold. When he sees you, a great big smile plays on his face. Not only is he willing to show you that he likes you, heβs not afraid of having everyone in the room know it, too. Heβll show you off to everyone because youβre his favorite person.
His physical affection knows no bounds.
Your guy gives the best hugs, and he gives them liberally. Every time he sees you, he envelops you in his arms. Guys with golden retriever energy definitely have βphysical touchβ high up on their list of must-have love languages.
His default mood is positive.
You suspect there isnβt a pessimistic bone in his body. Sure, things can get him downβheβs human after allβbut heβs also quick to bounce back. You know that if you ever need someone to lift your mood when youβre feeling down, heβs the perfect person to go to.
Heβs outgoing and friendly to everyone he meets.
You donβt have to worry what might happen when you introduce him to your friends or family. Heβll accept them with open arms just like he does everyone else. When he enters a room, the whole place lights up. As soon as everyone meets him, theyβll love him just as much as you do. Youβll just have to accept the fact that youβre dating the life of the party.
Heβll happily do little things for you.
Itβs the βfetchβ mentality. Youβre always on his mind and heβll show that by doing little things for you. And if you ask him for something, heβll do it happily. Best of all, you never have to ask twice. With a guy who has golden retriever energy, youβll feel a lot more like youβre both pulling the weight in the relationship.
Heβs happy when youβre happy.
Although his natural resting state is positivity and happiness, now that youβre together heβs tied his own mood to yours. If youβre sad, heβs sad. If youβre happy, heβs happy. This means heβll do anything to make sure youβre as happy as can be. And honestly, would you want anything less? Now treat this golden retriever with respect and love because itβs what he deserves.
