Why Your Love Interest Might Not Want A Committed Relationship
We all have been in the position where we are ready to throw all of ourselves into a relationship and then we hit a break wall. Of course, that brick wall is the inability of our love interest to actually commit to us and our relationship the way we want or need them to.
For those of us who are seeking commitment, it is hard to fathom why someone would not want the same thing. The fact of the matter is that there are a lot of really common reasons why people do not commit, including:
Many people are afraid to commit because in their last committed relationship things ended badly or they got hurt. Many people are afraid to give of themselves and their love when they have had a bad experience in the past. You may just need to give them time.
Some people get resistant when they feel like they are being pressured by the person they are dating, their friends, family, or even society to commit. Everyone has to decide to commit in their own time and their own way, this is not something that you can push someone towards, or you may actually be working against yourself and your cause!
Many people who are hesitant to commit are that way because they are seeing other people. You can not assume because someone is not ready to commit that they are seeing other people, but in a lot of instances this is exactly what it is. Or, they just want to keep their options open.
Many people who do not want to commit are afraid to do so because they do not want the fun and passionate phase of the relationship to end. Many people are almost addicted to the process of falling in love, and the result is that they are afraid to commit because this may signal that the enthralling falling in love phase is over and the relationship will begin to require work.
A relationship takes A LOT of work! Many people who do not want to commit do not want to because they are not ready for the responsibility of a relationship. It is better to know ahead of time if the person is going to be responsible or not rather than commit to someone and find this out later.
There are so many reasons that some people do not want to commit. You need to allow for the person that you are dating to decide for themselves when they are ready, and do not push them. Try to get an idea if their hesitancy to commit is just the way they are feeling right now, or if they never want to be in a committed relationship.
