He Considers You in His Decisions
If your partner asks for your opinions before making a decision, then he surely sees you as his future wife. Every considerate man wants to make a woman feel important to let her know that she is as much a part of his decisions as his conscience, and that, indeed, is a huge sign.
Men love women who are thoughtful, caring, loving and kind. A woman who does little things for her man for no other reason other than that she loves him. A woman who makes him smile back whenever she smiles at him. A woman who radiates love and warmth from her heart.
He Shares His Future Plans With You
Whether it is tailoring his decisions based on your goals or considering you before making major life decisions, he has you and your life together on his mind. If he frequently uses 'we' more than 'me,' it is clear that he wants to marry you.

When he's going to propose, your man might start to act just a little weird. One of the biggest signs that he is going to propose is a change in his general attitude. He'll go out of his way to tell you how much he loves you. He's hoping you'll do the same; he's looking for confirmation that the time is right.
You trust your partner absolutely and never worry that your partner will do something to hurt you. You are so in tune with each other that you never struggle to express how you feel with each other. You know that your partner understands you when you say it and even when you don't say it.
He Plans Dates For You Two
He will take the initiative to plan dates and find ways to spend time with you. With him, you will not feel like the one taking all initiatives. Also, he will try to include you in his existing plans, or if he can't include you, he will adjust the schedule in a way to make you feel included.
