There’s nothing more disappointing than falling head over heels in love with a man who seems like he’s never going to commit to you! Perhaps, as far as you’re concerned, you’ve finally hooked “the one” – only to find out he’s just not ready.
Time after time, he shows you he’s just not ready to commit. Talk about frustrating!
Here are a few reasons he might not be ready to admit you are his one and only…
Why He Won’t Commit And What To Do About It

Think of it as a self-fulfilling prophecy.
This is a tough one, and if you can muster the patience, you might be able to wait around for him to figure it out. If not, you’re going to have to chalk it up to a try and move on.
Reason Three – He’s Thinking Of Another
This is a truly hurtful reason. Sometimes, men can’t make up their mind, and they like to play both sides of the fence. Not fair, but it happens. Follow your gut with this one. If you think he’s got another girl on his mind, you need to call him out on it.
