why are men scared of commitment?

Becasue it means an end of a way they have lived.\n\nStaying up until 2am playing Tekken 2, hitting the strip clubs, smoking pot until your head goes sideways.\n\nA woman will take that all away and demand...domesticity!\n\nARGHRGHRGH!

Yeah I think I have a borderline attachment disorder! lol. I have commited in the past, it's just that I don't want to at the moment. I value my freedom and my life so much, that it would take someone very special for me to want to settle down and sacrifice all that.\n\nYou just have to be willing to make a few sacrifices, and able to drop the fear that goes along with commitment.\n\nGood luck :)

Maybe he's afraid to commit right now, just give him space....and time will take care of the rest! If he acts likes it, most likely he does....don't ruin a good thing.

Men are not afraid of change. They just don't want to do it and you should not ask them too. Accept them for who they are and if you do not like it then find someone else.

Because they have the one power that guys fear most of all.  The removal of sex from the equation!

I'm going through the same thing. In my opinion men who are afraid of commitment and also afraid of losing a great woman send very mixed signals. Once it starts to interfere with the quality of your life, you need to let go and move on. Maybe standing for your values will open his eyes, maybe not.

Most people who have been hurt in the past have a hard time opening up with someone new as to letting their defenses down and to be hurt again. Some just fear any type of commitment in general.\n\nThis life is full of chances. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. But life is alot better when you have someone to share it with, even if it is for a short while.

Some guys will,but others are too "shy" to do so. They are afraid of rejection or seeming weak because they admitted their feelings. It makes them vulnerable and they don't like it.

You're fears are justified.\nWith such changes in ones life, many guards are down.\nexciting new environment, peer pressure, other stresses.\nIf opportunity arises what would stop a person?\nHe may have all the good intentions to stay faithful to you.\nOther pressures may get the better of him.\nSo you have choices to make about how you will react etc...\nso don't leave the power to him\nyou are a strong independant woman.\nMake choices for yourself\nyou GO GIRL!

Guy are so shy because they are afraid. As a guy i know that when i was with my girl friend, i was scared to pull moves. It's the worry of making her feel uncomfortable, and if u go to far what will she do. Like touching a delicate glass peice, you worry it will break.

Well, most guys feel they are threatened by someone smarter than them. Plus when they try to get some, they feel they might not be able too, because you aren't some stupid chick willing to do anything.

some guys just dont want to get married... if things are good, why not just keep them the way that they are.

Everytime somebody does something like cheating it springs form an inperfection they prcieve in themselves. Usually fear of a stable relationship is because the people dont feel they are capable of holding up their end.

Ok.. from what Im getting is your meeteing girls then telling them how much u like and appreciate them.. ok dependin on how u show/say this ,and how this sounds to me.. you sound like u are wanting a commitment, and there is a theory that only men are afraid of commitment ...thats not true.. some women are too.. dont come out and say "hey i want to get married!" ( not that u say that but u might as well)  just be normal, get to know her. and if sex isnt in ur 1st date agenda, then theres no reason to "convince" her its not.  just be ur self without all the "persuading" of how u "appreciate" women. cause also when a man goes on about how much he "appreciates" women.. well thats just hey im a lying ass and just want in ur pants. somethings can be taken  differently

Men are "hunters", women are "nurturers".   Maybe it's just in them.  Until they're really, really, really ready to settle down with one woman and  a commitment for life - it's just hard to make that choice.  \n\nI really don't know, but I agree that more men are fearful of making a commitment than women.
