What Do I Do With a Man That Is Afraid of Committing?

As much as he has promised you, he is clearly not living up to it.

He gave you the impression that he was open to a serious relationship.

With that premise, a pseudo courtship began.

A substantive amount of time has transpired since then, and there are no signs of him committing to you.

This means he was lying to you from the start.

He wasn’t sincere about his openness to pursue a committed relationship.

He said all of that to make you believe that he was on the same mental wavelength as you, but none of that was true.

Unfortunately, he knew that by making you believe he was open to a serious relationship, you would be tempted to acquiesce to giving him your time.

And you did, convincing yourself that he was being honest.

The commitment never materialized, and this wasn’t by accident.

He already knew that he had no intention of eventually committing to you.

Rather, he wanted to take advantage of your time and emotions.

Think about the amount of time you have wasted on him by going on a few meaningless dates and spending time at his place and he at yours.

All of that has been for naught.

There was a part of you that believed all you had to do was give him time to discover your heartwarming personality, and the commitment was bound to ensue.

That never materialized.

It has nothing to do with him being afraid of committing and everything to do with his total lack of intention to commit.

He wants to have his cake and eat it too.

By making you believe he was open to a serious relationship, he got to take advantage of your time and emotions.

In doing this, he was fully aware that he could get you to become emotionally attached.

Once you develop an emotional attachment, it would buy him more time to keep using you for your time and emotions.

Basically, you are hanging on, hoping that a commitment is imminent.

But it hasn’t happened.

He was never truthful about his intentions.

What you should do with a man like this is stop wasting your time with him and let him go.

A man doesn’t require this much time to figure out whether you are someone he wants to commit to.

Sadly, this man is giving you the runaround, leading you on so as to satisfy his own selfish needs.

When a man meets a woman he is genuinely interested in, he doesn’t want to risk losing her by taking too much time to claim her.

Men can be territorial when they know that they have met the right woman for them.

The fact that he hasn’t claimed you is completely telling.

Be careful not to meet him face-to-face to let him go.

All he will do is try to convince you otherwise.

Send him a quick text to let him know that you are moving on and politely wish him the best.

Once done, quickly block him on all platforms so that you are never tempted to get sucked into his web of deceit again.
