subject: How to Deal With a Man Who Has Commitment Issues – Helpful Advice for Women [print this page] Author: Gillian Reynolds Author: Gillian Reynolds
Being deeply in love with a man who has commitment issues can be an exercise in frustration. Its something many women end up experiencing when their relationship has progressed to the point that a commitment is the next logical step. Many men who are commitment shy dont even share that bit of information until the relationship is established and the couple has a close emotional connection. If your hope is to take your relationship to the next level and your boyfriend is either afraid of a more serious commitment or just says hes not ready, dont let your disappointment get the best of you. There are certain things you can do and say that will silently encourage him to let himself open up enough to want the same type of commitment you want. One important thing to remember when you are dealing with a man who has commitment issues is not to push him about the issue endlessly. Many men have a reflex action that causes them to push back against whatever it is they are feeling pressure about. If you start talking continually about how you feel its time for the relationship to move to the next level, and he doesnt feel ready for that, hell pull back harshly. Youll end up feeling as if youre banging your head against the side of the wall because he just wont budge on his decision. If youve been guilty of pushing him to give you more of a commitment, stop that today. Something that many women who love a man who has commitment issues find helpful is to create some distance. Some men who say that they arent ready to take things to the next level are just too comfortable in the relationship the way it is. They simply see no reason to put more effort into something they already feel is very secure. If your boyfriend has no doubt in his mind that youll always be right there, why should he work at making the relationship more committed? However, if you pull back a bit or you start focusing more on your own life as opposed to your life as a couple, hell rethink his position on commitment. If he senses that he may be losing you, he may panic and the idea of a commitment will seem that much more interesting to him.About the Author:
