One of the most pressing questions by women, when it comes to relationships, is ‘Why Won’t He Commit.’  Women are looking for a clear cut and dry answer to this question.  The problem is, there is no Clear Cut and dry answer.  All men are different and reasons for commitment issues vary tremendously.  I cannot even try to tell you that I will touch on every reason, but I will try to give you some insight. 

          I want to speak on what sometimes happens early in a relationship.  First dates, second dates and third dates should be basically fun outings.  Get to know the person to see if you are able to enjoy his/her company.  These first dates should be lighthearted and fun.  Sometimes, women feel that they are in a space in their lives where they don’t have time to waste, so they ‘GO IN.’  From the first date, the interrogation begins and plans for the future are being discussed.  Sometimes this is just too much.  I personally don’t know if we are even going to make it to a second, third or fourth date; let alone have you asking me about wedding plans, credit scores and school districts for kids.  It’s not that these aren’t VERY VALID questions, it’s just that we need to spend a little more time getting to know each other first, before discussing such issues.  However, when a man decides this is going too fast, he is labeled as a man who fears commitment.  THAT IS NOT THE CASE!  I personally need to feel that me and my partner are building something together.  Don’t make me feel like, you already have your life set and you are just looking for the first possible candidate to come along and be the final piece you need for a ‘PERFECT LIFE.’  Slow down people and get to know what’s really going on before you are ready to give away the ‘KEYS AND SECURITY CODES.’

Imagination! Who can sing thy force?

Or who describe the swiftness of thy course?

Soaring through air to find the bright abode,

Th’ empyreal palace of the thund’ring God,

We on thy pinions can surpass the wind,

And leave the rolling universe behind:

From star to star the mental optics rove,

Measure the skies, and range the realms above.

There in one view we grasp the mighty whole,

Or with new worlds amaze th’ unbounded soul.
