saw a few very interesting articles in weekend Today...didnt know they actually got stuff like dat....anyway...this article entitled "Why men will not commit... and what women can do about it"
You are dating a nice man and the two of you have fun together. You like him, he seems to like you. One night, over a glass of wine, you casually mention a future togther. He drops a bombshell by telling you he does not want a committed relationship. What's going on? Here are some reasons...
1) He hasnt healed from losing a former love. In his book, Mars and Venus Starting Over John Gray describes the four critical phases of healing. He warns that if people do not heal properly, they will not have the capacity to commit to a new person. Your friend may need more time.
2) He is afraid. Some men avoid commitment because they do not want to go through another breakup or divorce. They are wary because of what happened before. Perhaps they got hurt in their divorce settlement. Perhaps their spouse cheated or perhaps they were abused verbally. Whatever happened, they do not want to risk going through it again.
3) He simply does not want to. He is happy with his life the way it is. He feels thay by committing, he would be tied down and unhappy. He refuses to give up his way of living.
4) He feels he is not with the right woman. Ouch! This could be for a variety of reasons. Perhaps he sees something abut a person he does not like, or he may just feel they are not compatible. Maybe he is too set in his single ways or maybe he just does not love the woman enough. (Ouch again!).
yar...1st part is about why men will not commit...2nd part maybe typing later...gotta go out soon....very true...every points are kinda covered in a way or another...
