They have a history of short relationships or have never been married.<\/h3>\n<p>There\u2019s often an excuse that they haven\u2019t met The One, or they justify their history by saying they still have plenty of time to settle down, as they can have children at any age. A well-used \u2014 if not overused \u2014 word is \u201csomeday.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. If they have been married, it\u2019s likely to have been for a short time.<\/h3>\n<p>Or, if they have been in a long-term relationship or marriage,\u00a0they will usually have a history of infidelity.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. They want a relationship, but they also want an unreasonable amount of space.<\/h3>\n<p>They are often attracted to long-distance relationships and busy, independent individuals for this reason.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. They blur the lines between being charming and manipulative.<\/h3>\n<p>They say and do all the right things, and can be very romantic snake-charmers. They are very good at selling you on the idea that they will live up to all the ideal characteristics and promises you\u2019re looking for in a partner just to get their own needs met.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, they have no intention of holding up their end of the bargain, and have very little concern for your feelings, as they are\u00a0continually operating from hidden agendas.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. They play the seduction\/rejection game.<\/h3>\n<p>They can\u2019t make the decision to give totally to the relationship, but they can\u2019t commit to walking away, either. They feel trapped by both choices. They feel love for their partner when they don\u2019t see them, but they want to run away as soon as they become involved again.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. They love the chase, but they don\u2019t want the kill.<\/h3>\n<p>This may happen after one night, one week, one month, three months or even one year. They may start sabotaging the relationship when it comes time for conversations about big life decisions, such as\u00a0moving in together.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. They spin stories to justify their contradictory behavior.<\/h3>\n<p>And when their partner\u2019s finally had enough and threatens to leave the relationship,\u00a0they may make promises to change\u00a0\u2014 only to break them (of course).<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. They often choose partners who aren\u2019t the type of long-term, \u201csettle down and get married\u201d person they would choose.<\/h3>\n<p>For example, they may be much older, much younger, married, or they may have different interests. They use these differences as excuses to end relationships.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. They have a history of frequent career changes and often work in environments where they have lots of freedom.<\/h3>\n<p>They don\u2019t want to connect with coworkers, be tied down to one job for too long, and likely seek positions with plenty of traveling and little to no supervision.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. They treat requests for respect as demands, then become angry, obnoxious and rebellious.<\/h3>\n<p>They don\u2019t see their partner so much as their equal as they do an accessory in their life. Once their partner has expectations or wants more from them (no matter how perfectly reasonable it is), they don\u2019t just feel bound by restrictions \u2014 they feel bound to them.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. They tend to compartmentalize their life and keep their work environment, friends or family off limits.<\/h3>\n<p>They can create wonderful excuses for why their partner shouldn\u2019t meet these people, especially because they don\u2019t want any of these people to form connections with each other.<\/p>\n<p>This would make it harder to suddenly detach from someone in any of these groups, because they\u2019ve become incorporated and established into of what could become an overall community of people in this person\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">13. When they get the feeling they need to run, their words and actions are full of mixed messages.<\/h3>\n<p>They essentially play mind games while trying to find the panic button and eject from the whole situation.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">14. They can be moody or aloof and blame the other person for why they\u2019re acting so bizarrely.<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes, they may even feel mixed up internally to some extent and they\u2019d much rather put you at fault than take accountability for their own acts and emotions.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15. They may withdraw sexually and blame it on their partner for being demanding.<\/h3>\n<p>They can also blame it on work fatigue, illness or anything else that sounds plausible.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">16. They have a pattern of unavailability and inaccessibility.<\/h3>\n<p>They can be hard to contact and are often unpredictable when it comes to returning phone calls. They can even avoid answering calls completely.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">17. They lie or are evasive and secretive about where they are and what they are doing in order create more distance.<\/h3>\n<p>They always want to keep their partner at arm\u2019s length and doing this helps them maintain that barrier of distance. It also keeps their partner from knowing more about them, their whereabouts, and who else they might be spending time with.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">18. They hate planning ahead because that means (you guessed it!) commitment.<\/h3>\n<p>They\u2019re called \u201ccommitments\u201d for a reason!<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">19. They have very little furniture or don\u2019t own property or a car, as these decisions represent commitment.<\/h3>\n<p>To some, buying a car can be as big a decision as deciding to get married. It can be all too much for them, as they don\u2019t want to feel stuck with anything.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20. They often don\u2019t invite dates to their home.<\/h3>\n<p>They may even live with their parents or couch-surf at friends\u2019 places so they aren\u2019t tied to a lease in any one specific location, and they may have no desire to change their situation.<\/p>\n<p>Even if have their own home, it exudes the feeling that they want to be alone. It isn\u2019t welcoming to the outside world because it\u2019s a reflection of how they don\u2019t want to welcome anyone into their hearts for very long.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">21. They are often unreliable, late and sometimes they don\u2019t turn up at all.<\/h3>\n<p>They are like this with family and friends, as well.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">22. They can be overly committed to their work or to their children.<\/h3>\n<p>In an effort to avoid spending time with a potential (or existing) partner, they have two of the ultimate excuses for obligations they can\u2019t get out of.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">23. They rarely lower their defenses because they don\u2019t want to get too close to the other person, or vice versa.<\/h3>\n<p>If they do, they usually only give little pieces of their soul in well-planned installments, except if they are having an affair. Affairs are perfect for people with commitment issues, as they feel completely safe to disclose, as well as to pursue the chase.<\/p>\n<p>They have the convenient excuse that commitment isn\u2019t an option while they are already in another relationship.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">24. If they\u2019re married, they may avoid putting their divorce papers through.<\/h3>\n<p>They can use this as an excuse to keep a potential romantic partner at bay. This also helps them to feel safe from the possibility of ever getting married again.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">25. Behavioral inconsistencies are very noticeable when they find themselves getting too close.<\/h3>\n<p>They become argumentative and perhaps even abusive, or they go to great effort to create distance. A lot of relationship-sabotaging behaviors surface (e.g., working long hours, taking on extra projects, not calling or picking up, being late, finding fault with the other person for no particular reason).<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">26. The word \u2018forever\u2019 terrifies them.<\/h3>\n<p>Love doesn\u2019t scare them; rather, it\u2019s what love\u00a0<em>represents<\/em>\u00a0to them that scares them. This is usually due to their negative belief system about love and relationships.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">27. They end up behaving worse and worse, and they sabotage more and more.<\/h3>\n<p>This is because they want the other person to end the relationship, as they feel too anxious and guilty to do so.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">28. They can also suffer from a mental health condition or trauma.<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes, the root of the commitment issues is especially serious and needs to be addressed by a mental health professional.<\/p>\n<p>In\u00a0their study that was published in 2019, researchers explain that \u201cPerceiving oneself as having more potential alternative partners was associated with increased odds of being the less committed partner in an ACR [asymmetrically committed relationship] compared to not being in an ACR, as was being more attachment avoidant, having more prior relationship partners, and having a history of [sexual infidelity] during the present relationship. Additionally, having parents who never married was associated with being the less committed partner.\u201d<a\/>[2]<\/p>\n<p>In their\u00a0article published in the Journal of Marital and Family Therapy,<a\/>[3]\u00a0researchers studied several couples where one partner met the criteria for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0National Institute of Mental Health defines BPD\u00a0as \u201ca mental illness that severely impacts a person\u2019s ability to regulate their emotions,\u201d also characterized by \u201ca pattern of intense and unstable relationships with family, friends, and loved ones.\u201d<a\/>[4]<\/p>\n<p>In the above-mentioned study on BPD and how\u00a0it negatively impacts romantic relationships,<a\/>[5]\u00a0there was also a control group where neither person met any criteria for BPD. After an 18-month period of collecting data, the researchers noted that the couples in which one person met the criteria for BPD \u201cshowed lower marital satisfaction, higher attachment insecurity, more demand\/withdraw communication problems, and higher levels of violence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When you find yourself in love or falling in love with a commitment-phobic person, there are ways to combat the situation. It all begins with changing how you go about dating and relationships.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to handle commitment issues<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Take your time getting to know them.<\/h3>\n<p>Listen carefully to your love interest\u2019s history. You don\u2019t need to be a pessimist, but be mindful of any red flags. If you do recognize a pattern of behaviors that reveal they have problems with commitment, think wisely before getting involved. You will likely only get hurt.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Set the pace.<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t allow them to control the pace, then monopolize it. This gives them the upper hand to time out when you see each other, how often and shape the relationship around their unreasonable boundaries.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Beware if they tend to exclude you from other areas of their life.<\/h3>\n<p>This is a tell-tale sign\u00a0that this person doesn\u2019t plan on keeping you in their life for very long. Healthy, committed relationships are supposed to involve sharing your life with one another.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Realize that your love and attention won\u2019t change them.<\/h3>\n<p>But\u00a0not needing them and giving them space\u00a0might.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Believe what they do, not what they say.<\/h3>\n<p>Actions speak louder than words.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Don\u2019t expect a committed relationship; be prepared to take the relationship for what it is.<\/h3>\n<p>These types of people are best treated as occasional lovers rather than potential partners. Don\u2019t rely on having a relationship with them. If you do, you will never feel emotionally safe or satisfied. You will only be left confused, bewildered, angry and hurt.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Don\u2019t cut yourself off from dating other people.<\/h3>\n<p>Keep your options open, as it\u2019s highly likely they aren\u2019t carrying a torch for you and they\u2019ll never be able to truly give you what you want, need and deserve.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Don\u2019t find excuses for their behavior.<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019re\u00a0only fooling yourself\u00a0and prolonging the inevitable disappointment looming ahead.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Evaluate whether they want to change and whether they\u2019re capable of changing.<\/h3>\n<p>Some people will fall into this category but most won\u2019t. Also, evaluate how patient you are willing to be. There\u2019s no guarantee they\u2019ll change and it\u2019s a long, arduous journey to get there. Also, remember that they, ultimately, need to be willing to take this step and do the emotional work to face their inner obstacles with commitment.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Learn from the experience.<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t think it was your fault when a relationship with someone who has a fear of commitment ends, but do learn from it. Make sure you don\u2019t get involved with someone like this all over again. Watch carefully for patterns or instances of\u00a0familiar, red-flag behaviors.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Take care of yourself first.<\/h3>\n<p>There\u2019s a high chance this person won\u2019t be there for you when you really need them, despite their sweet words (when they\u2019re in the mood, or trying to woo you back after mistreating you).<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Seek coaching or therapy to get different results.<\/h3>\n<p>Therapy can help uncover why you keep finding yourself with the same type of person and break the cycle once and for all.<\/p>\n<p>            <!--  [embed]https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=videoseries[\/embed]<!--\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>--><\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"-u3vQa5wAXw\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Weak Ankobra Bridge: Gov\u2019t could not secure funds for reconstruction \u2013 Roads Minister (15-12-23)\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-u3vQa5wAXw?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Due to negative experiences and beliefs (or sometimes a personality disorder), anyone can suffer from commitment issues.
