Society and Relationships
Posted by Arindam on 26, Dec 2009
We all have been in the site where we are ready to chuck all of ourselves into a relationship and then we hit a break wall. Of course, that brick wall is the inability of our love interest to actually commit to us and our relationship the way we want or need them to. For those of us who are seeking commitment, it is hard to fathom why someone would not want the same thing. The fact of the matter is that there are a lot of really common reasons why people do not commit. Many people are afraid to commit because in their last committed relationship things ended badly or they got hurt. Many people are afraid to give of themselves and their love when they have had a bad experience in the past. You may just need to give them time.
Some people get unwilling when they feel like they are being pressurized by the person they are dating, their friends, family, or even society to commit. Everyone has to decide to commit in their own time and their own way, this is not something that you can push someone towards, or you may actually be working against yourself and your cause! Many people who are hesitant to commit are that way because they are seeing other people. You can not assume because someone is not ready to commit that they are seeing other people, but in a lot of instances this is exactly what it is. Or, they just want to keep their options open.
