Is He a Non-Committal Guy?<\/h4>\n
Perhaps you feel you met the One. Yet he pulls away soon after, leaving you in limbo. Has he met someone else?\u00a0 Why is he running hot and cold?\u00a0 Do you have a future together?\u00a0 You wonder, Is it me?\u00a0 Is it him? Is this a non-committal guy and if so why do I mess with him? And you wonder, how do I handle a non-committal guy?<\/p>\n
Maybe you tend to be involved with a guy for a few months and then he always falls away mysteriously, leaving you alone.\u00a0 Or you have been with a guy for 10 years who brings over the chicken soup when you are sick, but he can\u2019t say the L word and is truly a non-committal guy.\u00a0 Or maybe you are in a long term on-again, off-again relationship where one or the other of you periodically withdraws or sees other people. The whole thing can be very unsettling and uncertain emotionally.<\/p>\n
Have you ever been involved and in love with one man for months, or even years, only to find that he simply cannot or will not take that next step into living together or marriage? Instead he gets irritated, distant, angry or simply hits the highway if there is any talk of sharing a future together? If you have read this far I know that you have had at least one of these FRUSTRATING experiences with a guy.<\/p>\n
RELATED POST: WHAT TO DO WHEN HE WON\u2019T COMMIT<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n It is easy to assume that because you have been together a certain length of time, sleeping together or seeing each other frequently, that you are exclusive or moving towards a commitment with a shared future.\u00a0 Because of this assumption, you let yourself off the hook in terms of the need to speak up.\u00a0 You reassure yourself that everything is moving along fine.\u00a0 You tell yourself, I certainly don\u2019t want to rock the boat by speaking up and then driving him away<\/em>.\u00a0 But muting yourself is a very dangerous thing to do.\u00a0 Your boyfriend thinks very differently from you.<\/p>\n Remember, men often view a committed relationship as a smothering noose or a heavy rack of burdens. A woman will refer to a guy she has been seeing as her boyfriend, while he may not even see her as remotely in the ballpark of being his girlfriend.\u00a0 She is just someone he is currently sleeping with.\u00a0 This kind of disconnect can go on for a year or more, until he drops the \u201cI\u2019m-not-in-love-with-you\u201d bomb.\u00a0\u00a0 You cannot afford to waste your super precious time in these murky grey waters.\u00a0\u00a0 You deserve the love you really want in your heart of hearts.\u00a0 Coming from that place and when the time is right, you need to have a mature straight-forward discussion with your Beloved.\u00a0 Love flows out of an open, honest dialogue where there is talking, listening and sharing.<\/p>\n This is something you must do for yourself.\u00a0 Because, it\u2019s you who feels the pressure of time ticking away and it\u2019s you who needs to know if he wants a future with you, if he loves you, if he wants a family or a baby with you.\u00a0 And you need to know sooner rather than later.\u00a0 To not speak your truth is deadly.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t you will find a gradual erosion of your own self respect and self love and a smoldering resentment that over time you will not be able to cover up.\u00a0 The upset is bound to seep out and poison your relationship so that in the end it will end badly.\u00a0 So you need to summon the courage to speak your truths.<\/p>\n As to your fear that any straight talk will drive him away: if a man is mature just the opposite is true.\u00a0 An honest talk where you are playful or casual will draw him in and allow him to feel closer to you.\u00a0 Only immature men who are truly not ready for the real deal will be pushed away by a talk.\u00a0 That is, as long as you don\u2019t come across as bossy, needy or bitchy.\u00a0 The key is to communicate at the right time, in the right way and avoid the common mistakes women make in having The Talk.<\/p>\n Research tells us that the average time for a couple to move from dating to a committed relationship with a future that includes living together or getting married is from nine months to three years.\u00a0 A study of 3000 couples in the UK showed that the average length of courtship before a marriage proposal was two years, 11 months.\u00a0 All this varies considerably from couple to couple.\u00a0 So there\u2019s no exact time to have The Talk. But usually, if things drag on in an uncommitted state much beyond a year or two, the relationship will tend to go downhill.\u00a0 Especially if one person is longing for a more permanent commitment like marriage and the other is dragging their feet.<\/p>\n On the other hand, ill-timed or premature conversations can definitely backfire.\u00a0 I\u2019ve seen so many women rush into having sex in the first month and then insist that \u201cwe\u2019re exclusive now,\u201d which blows the whole thing out of the water.<\/p>\n Any relationship that moves from casual to committed will have a series of Talks, not just one. There are discussions that are appropriate for early stages and some that are for later in the relationship. But before you engage in any of them let\u2019s first look at: common mistakes and what not to say or do; how to lay the foundation for these important talks so that you are ready and grounded; and finally, how to have the talks in both the early and later stages of the relationship so that he really listens.<\/p>\n It is just as important to understand what to avoid as knowing the elements of a successful Talk.\u00a0 Here is the list of 13 common mistakes that can cause a non-committal guy to become defensive, emotionally distant and run for his life:<\/p>\n Making any of these mistakes will tend to turn your man off. In fact, it will have the opposite effect of what you intended to accomplish. (Unless your intention is for him to get lost\u2013in which case you\u2019ll succeed admirably). But if your goal is for him to listen thoughtfully and engage with you in an open, honest and loving conversation prepare yourself so that you are grounded.<\/p>\n There are several steps I\u2019d like you to take in preparation for handling the non-committal guy.\u00a0 First, identify any tendencies you have of making any of the 13 all-too-common mistakes in your conversations with him. Next, practice stopping yourself the next time you open your mouth and desperation drama threatens to take over.\u00a0 Remember, desperation and dramas rarely have a place in healthy communication.\u00a0 So when you do talk with your partner and emotions begin to overtake you. Close your mouth so you don\u2019t lose control. Then take a deep breath and visualize a big bold Red<\/strong> Stop Sign.<\/strong>\u00a0 When you\u2019ve quieted down, immediately change the subject. Practicing the Stop technique will help you avoid running over him with your emotional outbursts. They won\u2019t get you anywhere good, I promise.<\/p>\n If you have a Love Mentor, she can help you avoid accidentally repelling your Beloved. Be sure to discuss having the Talk with her beforehand so that you have an emotional ally. And are more grounded and prepared.\u00a0 It is much easier if you first air out your fears, fire up your courage, gather your thoughts and rehearse with your mentor.
