You're with a man who you feel may be the one for you. You dream about the day when he'll proclaim his undying love for you and ask for your hand in marriage. For many women that dream crashes into a million small pieces when they realize that the man they adore has little interest in committing. If that sounds like the man you're with, you've got a problem on your hands. Fortunately, there are ways to get him to change his mind about commitment. Understanding how to do that will ensure you get the future that you so desperately desire.
You'll never be able to get him to change his mind about commitment if you constantly try and push him towards it. Most men will put up an emotional barrier if they feel they're being coerced into something. He'll fight you on the issue and you'll end up feeling farther apart from him. That's why it's vitally important for you to stop all talk about moving the relationship to a more serious place. Don't bring it up again and don't try and hint around the issue. He's smarter than that and he'll take even the most subtle hint as added pressure. Once this happens he'll emotionally retreat and you may never get the commitment you desire.
The main reason why men aren't as quick to commit as women are is simple. If a man knows that you're his, he doesn't see a reason to rush into anything more serious than a casual dating relationship. To him it seems unnecessary to talk about commitment when it's obvious that neither of you is going anywhere. This can happen when a relationship becomes very comfortable and predictable.
One of the best ways to get a guy more serious about you is to show him that you're not completely and totally his. If you can keep him on his toes, it will keep him guessing about how committed to him you really are.
Start changing up the routine a bit. Instead of always being available, make other plans that don't include him. Also, start planning your future based solely on your own needs. Don't ask his opinion or consult with him at every turn.
It won't take long for him to notice that you're not the same patient girl who was willing to wait endlessly for him. This will often be enough to make any man change his mind about commitment. The fear of losing the woman he loves gives a man a completely different view of being in a serious and committed relationship.
