You're asking whether you can feel safe as his one and only. Let me be honest with you about what I'm seeing. **What he brings to this relationship is the Five of Swords.** This card speaks of someone who often puts his own needs first, who may keep score in arguments, and whose loyalty can feel conditional rather than wholehearted. It doesn't mean he loves you — it means his love may come with edges. There's a self-protective quality here that makes full, soft devotion difficult. **The connection between you** shows communication that is sharp, fast, and sometimes ungrounded — Knight of Swords reversed. Words may cut more than heal. **The challenge** is a reversed Seven of Coins: you've been investing deeply but the return doesn't feel equal. You're questioning whether your patience is misplaced. **The potential** is The Magician reversed — untapped power. The capacity to rebuild exists, but it's not being used right now. Someone isn't fully showing up. To answer your question directly: he may feel attachment and care for you, but the cards don't show the kind of settled, exclusive devotion you're longing for. There is work to be done — by him, not just you. The real question may be whether you can accept what's actually being offered, or whether you've been holding out hope for something that hasn't truly existed yet.
