subject: 5 Reasons Why He Is Not Commitment Ready [print this page] CommitmentCommitment. It ends up being the make or break word of most relationships. If someone is unwilling to commit to you, then you know that at some point, you are going to have to move on without them. And when you find someone who IS willing to make a commitment to you, it can make you feel validated and like you are on top of the world.
When someone does NOT want to commit, it may make you wonder what their reasons are. It can make you feel worthless, or like there is something wrong with you. However, that is not always the case.
If you are wondering why someone is not wiling to make a commitment, here are 5 common reasons for this:
1) They are afraid of commitment.
This applies especially to guys. There are a lot of men out there who really are afraid of commitment. So much so, that it seems almost like a cliche to list it in the number one slot. This is something that you need to be aware of, though, because it is so common.
2) The timing is not right.
Expecting someone to commit to you after 3 dates is not really that realistic is it? For someone to make a REAL commitment to you, then you probably want them to be sure of the way that they feel as well as sure that they probably put some real time in thinking about it. And for that to happen, the timing has to be right.
3) They are in a relationship already.
You never want to get yourself into this situation, but let's be honest... it happens. If a man does not want to commit to you and there are other signs that he may not be entirely honest about being in a relationship, you may have to get to the point where you are willing to just walk away.
4) He's not really serious about you.
This can be hard to admit, but that guy you are crazy about... he may not be as into you as you are into him. Lot's of times this is the case when a guy seems like he just won't make a commitment to a woman. The problem is, if you are not willing to admit that this may be the reality of the situation, you may allow him to string you along for as long as he wants to.
5) They need to grow up.
Not everyone is at that stage in their life when they can really handle all of the relationship responsibility that comes with a true commitment. If he is still very immature in many ways and he seems to be stalling on the issue, then you may have to admit that he still needs to grow up. It's up to you if you want to wait for him to grow up, but realize that he may never do it.
