5 Signs He’s Hesitant to Commit

Man being forced in to a relationship by woman with chain around him

Let’s be honest with each other for a second: how many of you guys want…nay, long to be in a loving, committed relationship? I’d say, right about everyone, yes?

Well, maybe not for the small percentage of people who simply love to play the field too much to get ‘tied down’. When it comes down to it, however, almost every person wants to belong to someone else and they want someone to be their own as well. It’s in our nature; we are a social species after all.

So, if we are so social a species, whey then is it that there is a shortage of well-functioning and fulfilling committed relationships? Why are there so many men…and to some extent, women, who are hesitant to commit?

Why he won’t commit to your relationship

Man holding up his hands to hide his face

Okay, first off, you need to know that there is a certain breed of men who just won’t commit. They love the game too much to hand in their jerseys and commit to one woman. These are the kind of men you want to avoid. They are the kind of men who:

  • Only text when they want some
  • Never really introduce you to anyone they know
  • Are always keen on going out of town for your rendezvous
  • You guys only ever meet when it is convenient for him
  • He seems like he never really listens to you

Basically, these are the selfish kind of men who are in it for themselves and only themselves. There is a good chance that you already know how to spot these kinds of men. If you don’t then you should read:

Watch this to give you more insight on the top 5 Realest Signs He Will Never Commit To You and You’re Wasting Your Time (Brutal Honesty):

How can you tell if he really likes you but is shy?

Granted, there is a good chance that you actually have a good man who is truly interested in you but he just doesn’t know how to convey or express that to you. The truth is that to a huge degree, men are generally poor communicators. This is especially true when it comes to matters of the heart.

There are, however, several ways through which you can easily tell if a guy is truly interested in you. When he really likes you:

  • He will notice and commit to memory the little details: He will remember things like your birthday or anything that is particularly important to you.
  • He does a little more: He goes the extra mile to make sure that you are secure and feel cherished.
  • He builds momentum: He will strive to make sure that your relationship goes from strength to strength. You know, next level s%$t!

This is someone who is genuinely interested in you and is more than willing to build a relationship with you. If you find a man like this, then you should try as much as you can to keep him.

However, trying to compare him to your previous a-hole boyfriends will ruin things for you. Try to treat every man independently and do not judge them for mistakes made by the rest of the male species in general.

Signs that he is hesitant to commit

Now, just as there are some good guys out there who genuinely like you but just don’t know how to show it, there are men out there who are just out to use you. It’s hurts, but it is the reality of the life we live.

Sometimes, your relationship might even start off hot and heavy…and you will be thinking this is the real deal. ‘He genuinely likes me!’ Then for some weird reasons things die off and he starts to lose interest or slowly back out of the commitment and you start wondering…what the hell?

There are three main reasons why a man could lose interest and start backing out of what was looking like a committed relationship:

  • He wants freedom: You might have been pushing too hard for the relationship.
  • He wants or found something better: This sucks.
  • He didn’t really like you to begin with: There is really nothing you can do about this

The thing about when this happens is that the harder you chase the relationship the more you will push him away. Sometimes it is just best to pull back and let things play out as they will.

That being said, there are some surefire signs that will tell you a guy is either hesitant or in unwilling to commit. The following five signs should give you a pretty good picture of what the future holds for your relationship with this guy.

Man playing two women

He is about the good, not the bad (he pulls away in the bad times)

If you have a man who is all about the good times, you know:

  • He will party with you
  • He will take you on road trips
  • He will go for comedy shows with you

Basically, he will always be there for the fun times but when the hard times strike he is nowhere to be seen. This kind of guy doesn’t care about whatever issues you are going through.

In fact, he never really seems interested in how your day was or what you might be going through. He only wants to be around you when you are happy but doesn’t care to find out HOW TO make you happy.

If you have a man like that, then you, my dear love, are not in a relationship that is headed for the long term. You are pretty much a glorified, repeat booty call.

He gets close to you until the vibe changes

Now this is something that a lot of guys do: they get close to you; you guys have a heck of a wonderful time when you are together and then as soon as he starts to feel like this is no longer just a casual thing or that the relationship might be headed in a more serious direction, he pulls away!

These kinds of guys have commitment issues and despite how much they like you, they just can’t help themselves but to automatically pull away.

The one mistake that women tend to make in these kinds of situations is to start pressurizing the guy for more. I mean, they feel the connection too so they don’t understand why the guy won’t just jump in and commit to the relationship.

Pressuring the guy will only make him pull away more. Here are tips on what you should do in this kind of situation:

He only talks about the future when he is on a high

Guys are emotional ‘in the moment’ creatures! That is the brutal truth. When we are on a high and feeling really good, we will tell you what we know you want to hear to get to the cookie. We will even tell you we love you only to try and walk it back once we come down from the high.

The problem with these kinds of guys is that they will never tell you all these nice things when there is no outside stimulant. It ties back to the first point we made here: they are all about the good times and not at all about the bad…sober times. This is a clear sign that he is hesitant to commit.

Here is a video showing you how to get him to reveal his feelings so you know exactly what you are getting yourself into:

He treats the relationship too casual

Remember when we said in the beginning that a guy who truly likes you will go the extra mile? You know:

  • Communicate with you often
  • Pay attention to the little details of your life that seem to matter
  • Develop a momentum that will push the relationship forward

Now, a guy who treats your relationship too casual is the exact opposite. This is someone who will text you one week and cut off all contact for the next two weeks. This is someone who goes in and out of your life at his convenience and that often means not seeing him for days on end.

He is exactly like the guy who is in it for the good times. He just shows up when it is convenient for him. This kind of guy is NOT going to commit to you.

He didn’t commit during the peak of your relationship

You know how in the beginning of a relationship you guys simply cannot get enough of each other? You always want to:

  • Talk all the time
  • Go out and have fun
  • Have a shit ton of sex

Basically you always want to be around each other and you simply cannot fathom how you ever survived without the other person? This is when things are hot and heavy.

If a man does not show you signs of wanting to commit or keep you during this period, you can bet your left b&*b that he will not commit when things start leveling off or quieting down. He will simply move on and find some other high to chase.

guy asking woman to marry him
I always say that successful relationships are all about the ‘we’ not the ‘me’. If you have a guy who doesn’t seem too focused on the ‘we’ part of your relationship, then you know for a fact that he is in it for the ‘me’ and once he has enough he will simply move on to the next one.

These kinds of guys will never commit and you are better off ending things now to make yourself available for the man who will cherish and treasure you the way you deserve to be loved.

  1. So I have a question for you.

    I was dating this guy, he was just the nicest guy, and we were such a good match too. We agreed from the beginning we didn’t want to get into something serious too fast, and I was fine with that. We ended up dating for about 5 months. Pretty casual, but we were getting closer every day and I could tell he was starting to get stronger feelings for me and feel more comfortable around me as well (he is not the type to do sweet things all the time, he’s a very manly man type so that’s how I could tell).
    Throughout these five months, we went on a lot of dates, spent a lot of quality time together and met eachother’s families and spent time together with friends. It seemed like things were going really well. There was no talk of getting more serious, we were just taking things very slowly, per how we felt from the very beginning.
    All of a sudden, he just up and ended things. Boom, out of nowhere. I felt blindsided, and hurt because I was so comfortable with him, and I know he was with me too. Things were going well with us! I couldn’t understand what happened. He didn’t tell me that he just wasn’t interested in me anymore, he almost seemed like he was afraid to get more serious, and for the life of me I don’t understand why.

    I’ve been going over it again and again, trying to find something I said or did to make him end things. But there’s nothing. We didn’t talk about serious things because we knew from the beginning we were “going to take things slowly” in his words. I’ve been trying to read up about situations like mine, because I’m just shocked. I read that sometimes they end things suddenly because they start to feel very strongly about that person, and get scared. Or they are afraid to committ. And those two things make sense in my mind at least because right up to the day he was being more sweet (he had progressed over the 5 months to doing more sweet things, to show he cared), took care of me when I was sick, literally the day before. And when we went out together a few days before, he kept saying things like “I’m going to take you to this great place (in reference to a restaurant) next time you come to my place”. I’m just so confused, and was wondering, what do you think? I’m just looking for some closure, because I’m feeling very hurt.

    1. Sometimes there is no closure. Men like this don’t do closure they just up & leave. You’ve got to know there’s a whole trail of women he’s done the exact same thing to. It’s painful & psychologically cruel. You replay the whole relationship trying to figure out what YOU did wrong & the answer is NOTHING. You did nothing wrong. Focus on healing & move on.
      Just be thankful he did it after 5 months & not 5 years because then the devastation is by far way MORE painful. Take it from someone who knows.

  2. In any box, the standards of propitious news-casting haven’t been willing of sooner than this valuable net index. Google in actuality thinks usually about the dash and substance of articles, peculiarly as a component of its XML. Major news-casting is tied in with being straightforward and as consistent headed as could be expected.

    For what reason do you evaluate the Google XML sitemap creeps, lists, and distributes visitor site content from CNN, BBC, Techcrunch, The Impediment Boulevard Journal and others in its muster items?

  8. My wish right now is that God should continue to bless Dr Emu for his good works towards the life of those people who are heart broken. My name is Michael DeBruin and I am from the USA, it’s been a while since my lover’s attitude changed from being the caring type she has been to me, but later turned out not to be caring at all. But not long, I later discovered that my lover was having an affair with someone else. and also she told me she doesn’t need me after all we pass through then a friend told me about a spell caster. that with the spell I will get back my woman, I took his cell number then called him and also what’s-app him which he reply to me and I did some sacrifices to the spell man and he bought the items for me which he used for the sacrifices and later called me that before 48 hours my love will come back to me and now we are more in love with each other than ever. you can reach him on WhatsApp +2347012841542 or reach him via mail ; emutemple@gmail.com , my lover returned back and broke up with the other guy she was having a relationship with… Thank you Dr Emu.

  9. I want to deliver a testimony here on this website about a spell caster who helped me bring my ex back to me. My ex broke up 8 months ago and I have been very lonely without seeing him around me anymore. I met a friend who introduced me to Doctor Odunga and i have been very grateful since i met this spell caster because it did not take me a week when i met this spell caster that my ex came back to me. I contacted doctor odunga and i explained everything to him and after 2 days he told me everything is complete and within 24 hours my ex called me and asked me where i was that he wants to see me and I told him i was at the gym and soon he pulled his car at the front of the gym and knelt down to beg me. I am very happy i met Odunga spell caster and if you need help contact him immediately at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com

  10. My boyfriend left me for another girl for some silly reasons. He keeps telling me that I am nothing to him. He said he wants to be with the other girl. that he has no feeling for me anymore. This started more than one month ago. By this time he also speaks to me but not in his own mood or to rebuild our relationship. He does so because I request him to be with me at least for some hours or some minute… we talk only once …but I can’t stay without him. I want him back.. I was really worried and I needed help, so I searched for help online and I came across a website that suggested that Lord Zuma can help get ex lover back fast. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do, and I did it then he did a Love spell for me. Some hours later, my boyfriend really called me and told me that he misses me so much, So Amazing!! So that was how he came back that same day, with lots of love and joy, and he apologized for his mistake, and for the pain he caused me when he left. Then from that day, our relationship was now stronger than how it was before, All thanks to Lord Zuma. he is so powerful and I decided to share my happiness on the internet that Lord Zuma is real. if you are here and you need your ex lover back or save your marriage fast. Do not cry anymore, contact Lord Zuma now. Here’s his email: spiritualherbalisthealing@gmail.com or WhatsApp him: +1 506 800 1647

  12. Treasure is not only when you have diamonds and gold in possession. faithfulness is also a treasure which brings dignity and trust.You don’t accidentally cheat on your partner, in any capacity. If you cheated, then you made the conscious choice to entertain that person when you could have told them to go away. If you cheat, own that wrongdoing. Don’t act like it’s beyond your control.My ex was cheating,Nothing could budge him from his selfish demands. He kept seeing the girl and cheated over and over again. I tried every possible communication both personally and routed through friends and relatives but didn’t work. I came to know all that he was doing behind my back.all thanks to ”hackingloop6@gmail . com” for their investigative and hacking service that hacked and helped me gain access to all his phone activities.Cheating is cruel and it feels horrible..Hackingloop is also reachable on WhatsApp + 1 484 540 – 0785 ,he really helped me get an honorable divorce without fights..
