What do you wish all men who are scared about commitment asked themselves before deciding whether they are ready for a relationship?
Throughout my practice related to relationships and marriage, I noticed a few concerns from clients with this fear. The following questions may help clarify if you are ready to commit or not;
Are you open to intimacy?
Some people dislike allowing others to know them well. They cannot share their emotions, hence keeping off from relationships. I have had a few friends with such a problem. Some of them got married but committing has always been an issue.
Do you feel insufficient?
Perhaps you were raised by negative experiences from your loved ones, making you feel invaluable. As a result, you developed self-esteem issues that made you think other people are not sufficient enough to rely on, thus increasing your fear for commitment.
What are a few key questions men can use as a guide to determine whether they are scared of commitment or just aren’t with the right person for them?
The questions include;
- Are you sometimes petty over small issues?
- Are you overly critical of your partner after realizing that the relationship may need commitment because things are getting serious?
- Are you the kind that treats your partner with high love intensity at the start of the relationship, but when they seem to reciprocate, you withdraw and begin to lose interest?
- Are you mostly committed to other things more than your relationship?
Are there other things to keep in mind when checking in with yourself about your fears of
Commitment?
Definitely, yes. It is important to look back into your childhood. May be you are traumatized because of what you saw your parents go through in their marriage, and probably got divorced. You may have a mindset that relationship problems have no solutions and walking in your parents’ footprints is the last thing you wish to do. Some people suffer from this fear because their previous relationships were disappointing and they do not want to risk anymore. Therefore, check into your past to help determine whether you are scared of commitment or not.
What can fears of commitment reveal about a person?
It tells about their possible past relationships or childhood. They may have gone through abusive or traumatizing lives, which still affect their intentions about relationships.
Why is it important to be aware of those fears?
It helps work through a solution that can help change for the better. For instance, you can start seeking help from professionals to get tricks on how to reverse your fear for commitment. I highly recommend exposure technique. Schedule dates and night outs. Talk over matters relationship through which you will know more about them and avoid asking for favors in return. Be patient enough and do not forget your intention of transforming the fears.
