Trying to read a man’s mind is a bit of a journey into the deepest levels of frustration. Men are a puzzle to women. They tend to hold their hearts very close to their vests and they don’t often talk about the future the way we wished they did. We have to rely on our own, somewhat misguided, instinct to know what he’s feeling at specific times. It’s challenging, particularly if you feel unsure about whether he’s as intensely devoted to you as you are to him. You want to know if he’s all yours. You’ve asked him and his answer is always the same, “yes,” or “of course.” If you want something more tangible as proof that he’s committed to you, there are a few behavior signs you need to be on the lookout for.

Here’s a quick list of signs that a man is committed to you:

Other women completely fall off his radar.

Most of us have dated at least one man who seemed to have a very short attention span when another woman was in the room. It’s so disheartening to be talking to a man you really feel connected to only to discover his eyes are wandering past you to a beautiful woman who just entered the room. One telling way to know if a man is all yours is he’ll be so focused on you that he won’t notice anyone else in the room at all. This is something you can test the next time you two are in a crowded restaurant. Keep your eyes on him and watch what or who he fixates on.

Nothing gets in the way of him seeing you.

It’s a wonderful feeling to know that nothing stands in the way of your guy making time to see you as often as possible. If he promises that you two are going to have dinner this evening and he follows through, that’s a great sign. On the other hand, if he consistently calls at the last minute to break plans, you’re more of a back up to him. A man who is doing this is not feeling committed to the woman in question, at all.

You are an important part of his inner circle.

Have you ever dated a man who seemed to want to keep you separate and removed from the rest of his life? It’s happened to most women at some point. A man who feels committed to a woman wants to immerse her completely in his life. He wants her to know his friends, and he loves when she spends time with his family. This is actually one of the best ways to tell whether or not he’s yours.

If he loves you, he’ll make it clear by making his life an open book and he’ll be excited to talk about the future that you two are going to build together. You may have to read a bit between the lines to find the answers you’re seeking, but if you love him, it’s more than worth any amount of effort you need to invest.

You don’t have to wait for him to decide whether or not he’s ready to commit to you. If you are tired of putting your dreams on hold because he’s commitment phobic, there are things you can do to make him want to marry you now.

Learn right now what you need to do to make him fall to his knees and beg you to marry him.

They say that patience is a virtue but chances are “they” weren’t waiting endlessly for a proposal that was never coming. Being in love is great, isn’t it? It’s wonderful when you find a man who fits into your life perfectly. You two view the world the same way, you have the same life goals and you are dating exclusively. Life couldn’t get much better than that, could it? Well, the answer is that it actually would be so much better if you had an engagement ring on your hand and a promise for a future of committed love and fidelity. If you’ve been dating for years without a proposal, you’re probably wondering when you need to pull the plug on the relationship and give up. It’s natural to question that. The answer just isn’t as straightforward as you may think it is.

When a woman has been dating the same man for years and years and they’re still considered just boyfriend and girlfriend, that’s a problem only if one of them views it as such. Many couples go their entire adult lives being committed to one another without the aid of a marriage certificate. It works for them because they are both okay with that and both view relationships the same way. If you and your boyfriend aren’t like this, the issue of marriage is going to cause some friction and conflict.

Obviously by now you’ve brought up the subject of marriage with your guy more than once. His reaction to that is probably more telling than you realize. If he says things like, “we don’t need a certificate to be happy,” or “marriage is over-rated,” he’s not taking the subject seriously. He may feel that marriage really isn’t necessary in a long term committed relationship. If that’s the case you need to explain to him why it is important to you. If you feel you’ve done this already, don’t bring it up again. He knows exactly how you feel on the topic so chasing it around over and over isn’t going to help.

Some well meaning people often suggest that the way a woman should handle a boyfriend who won’t propose is to give him an ultimatum. Something along the lines of giving him a certain time frame to either propose or leave. This is a risky move even in the strongest of relationships.  Most men don’t like being pushed back into a corner and they’ll fight back if they are. In this case he’s likely to tell you that he’d rather walk away than be threatened into marrying you.

The one thing that can help if you truly do love him and envision yourself as his wife is to change the relationship slightly. Right now you two are moving down a path that he is leading you on. Even though you’re not content just being his girlfriend, your actions suggest otherwise. You haven’t left and you still see him whenever he wants, perhaps you two are even living in the same home.

Shake things up just a touch by pulling back a bit. Be very subtle about this but make it clear to him, through your actions only, that you’re venturing out on your own a bit. Do this by planning evenings with friends, taking a weekend getaway with family members or signing up for a class without discussing it with him first. The key is really to start making a life of your own that is separate from him. These small gestures will suggest to him that you’re starting to pull away and the fear of losing you may be enough to make him see marriage in a completely different light.

You don’t have to wait for him to decide whether or not he’s ready to commit to you. If you are tired of putting your dreams on hold because he’s commitment phobic, there are things you can do to make him want to marry you now.

Most women dream of their wedding day for years. We plan every last detail including the dress, the music and who will be our attendants. It’s the one day in a woman’s life when she can feel like a princess and the focus is solely and completely on her. When you meet the man that you believe will be your soul mate, those visions of the perfect wedding start dancing circles in your mind. It’s impossible not to think about being his wife when you’re certain you want him to be your husband. The problem with that is when you realize that you’ve fallen in love with a commitment phobic man. Even though it may feel as though your dreams are crashing down around you, there are ways to deal with this relationship problem with compassion and understanding.

It’s incredibly important to understand that even though you may be in love with a commitment phobic man it doesn’t necessarily mean he doesn’t love you just as deeply. A man can be completely and utterly crazy about his girlfriend, but when the topic of marriage rears its head, he goes into an emotional cave. There are many reasons why this occurs and little has to do with the man’s reluctance to marry his girlfriend because he’s not crazy about her. It’s much more about his insecurities.

Identifying why your guy is so wary of commitment can completely change the future for both of you. Obviously, the best way to figure out what is causing him to hold back is to talk to him but it’s important to note that not all men can effectively recognize why they themselves don’t want to marry. It can range from his fear being ingrained at a young age when he watched his parents struggle through a painful divorce or it may be linked to his current friendships and how those men feel about their own marriages. If he sees his friends struggling to remain happy with their wives, he’s going to think all men who marry will experience exactly the same things.

As tempting as it is to issue an ultimatum to him, don’t take it that far. If a man truly has deep seated emotional reasons for being commitment phobic, your pushing him won’t help. He’ll shut down emotionally and end the relationship before he’ll give in. That’s why it’s imperative that you understand how to subtly persuade him towards wanting a commitment.

Once you’ve expressed your desire to be his wife, don’t mention it again. He knows that you love him and want a stable long term future with him. Instead, of hinting about the wedding dress you envision yourself in, work on becoming a more supportive friend to him. If a man feels as though his woman is going to be there for the long run, he’ll feel closer to her emotionally. Many relationships that have withstood the test of time have been built on a strong and sturdy friendship. By working with him to establish an unbreakable bond, he’ll start to let go of his fears and the idea of being married to you will feel natural and incredibly comfortable.

You don’t have to wait for him to decide whether or not he’s ready to commit to you. If you are tired of putting your dreams on hold because he’s commitment phobic, there are things you can do to make him want to marry you now.

Many women dream of their wedding day for most of their lives. They imagine exactly what their wedding dress will look like, who their attendants will be and what music will be playing. As soon as they meet the man that fills in that picture, they seem to be marriage focused. It’s hard not to think about how perfect your happily-ever-after future could be once you’ve met the man you believe is your life partner. The problem that often arises in this fairytale story is the man in question just isn’t ready to take the plunge into marriage just yet. That’s understandable as everyone moves along the road to commitment at a different pace. However, if you have been waiting endlessly for your relationship to shift to the next level and it still hasn’t happened, that’s frustrating and discouraging. If you’re searching for answers to the question of how to persuade him to propose, there are a few tips that may prove incredibly helpful to you.

If you want to get him to propose you have to take the subtle route instead of always throwing the idea directly at him. If a woman resorts to leaving bridal magazines in full view, dragging her man down to look at engagement rings or asking him who he wants to invite to their future wedding, she’s playing with a fire. If a man already has serious reservations about marriage and then you push him towards it non-stop, you’re demonstrating that you don’t care about what he feels. That’s obviously not the case, but it translates to that if he says he doesn’t want to get married and you bring it up at every opportunity anyways.

Try being more subdued in your pursuit of an engagement ring. If you’ve already talked about it enough that he understands clearly that it’s what you want, drop it. He knows what you feel so there’s no need to continue to talk about it. Instead, focus on showing him why you’d make such a great wife by being compassionate, kind and supportive always.

Being with a man who rejects the idea of marriage even after you’ve quieted down about it takes its toll on a woman. If you’ve stepped back from the subject for a few weeks or months and his attitude hasn’t changed at all, you need to take things to the next level.  This is when it’s time to pull back from the relationship a bit. There’s no need to make a major announcement about how you’re tired of waiting for him to commit. Instead, focus more on your own life and the other goals you have set for yourself. Spend more time without him and make more decisions solely on your own. This is a perfect way to silently show him that you’re shifting from a place of being part of a couple to being single again. This type of subtle change in a woman can have a dramatic impact on her man and make him completely rethink the idea of commitment.

You don’t have to wait for him to decide whether or not he’s ready to commit to you. If you are tired of putting your dreams on hold because he’s commitment phobic, there are things you can do to make him want to marry you now.

You’ve met a wonderful man and you can’t help it but visions of engagement rings and a beautiful wedding have been dancing in your head. You want a future with this man because your heart is telling you that he’s definitely the one. It’s a great feeling, isn’t it? To know that you’ve found the one man you’re destined to live your life with. There’s only one major glitch in your plan for an ideal future. He’s not interested in a serious relationship. You’ve tried in vain to change his mind but you’ve reached your wit’s end. Is it possible to get the man you love to want to be with you? It certainly is. You just have to know how to subtly persuade him to want to commit to you as much as you want to commit to him.

If he’s not interested in a serious relationship and he’s made that clear to you, it’s vitally important that you determine why that is. There is a reason for his refusal to take the relationship to the next level with you. Perhaps he was so deeply invested emotionally in his last relationship that he’s still healing from that. Maybe he was witness to a bitter and long winded divorce in his own home when he was a child and he doesn’t ever want to allow himself to risk being in that position. Think long and hard about each conversation you two have had about commitment and his reflections on that. You can also find clues in other things he says and does. If he comments on how his married friends have lost their freedom that’s an indicator that he likely believes men lose their own sense of identity once they commit.

If you’ve tried talking to him about his reservations to commit, you need to turn to actions to persuade him. Unless you change the dynamic of the relationship you can expect things to stay as is for the foreseeable future. It’s not advisable for you to end the relationship with him completely. If you do that you’ll risk him finding someone else. It’s better to pull back slightly and stop playing the role of committed partner to him if he doesn’t see you as such.

Easy and effective ways to do this are to spend more time with your female friends and less time with him. If you have some vacation time approaching, plan a getaway with friends or family members but not with him. Also, stop consulting him about any major life changes you’re considering including changing jobs or moving. If you show him that you are taking on more of an independently single attitude he’ll realize that there is a chance he may lose you.

You don’t have to wait for him to decide whether or not he’s ready to commit to you. If you are tired of putting your dreams on hold because he’s commitment phobic, there are things you can do to make him want to marry you now.

Most women are somewhat patient when it comes to most matters, but when love is involved we can be a little eager. When we meet a man and fall in love with him, visions of weddings and happy-ever-after futures start dancing in our heads. Naturally, the next logical step after you’ve been dating the man you love for sometime is a more serious commitment. Not all men view things the same way though and many aren’t in any rush at all to take things to the next level. If you’re living in a relationship like this, don’t give up hope for an engagement ring in your near future. Making him commit may have more to do with your actions than you realize.

Making him commit has a lot more to do with what you do than what you say. As women, we tend to be very vocal about what we’re feeling and what we want. If we are hoping for a marriage proposal we may start dropping very obvious hints to our boyfriend. If he’s hesitant about the idea of a commitment, he’s going to pull back even more if you constantly talk about it. If your goal is getting him to commit to you, you need to stop talking about marriage. Don’t mention it again. Men expect the women they love to want a serious relationship. If you suddenly seem to not be interested in that, he’s going to become more interested in it. It’s part of the push and pull of romantic relationships. If he feels you slipping away, he’s going to do everything he can to pull you back, even if it means committing to you.

When a man feels that he’s completely won a woman over he really sees no reason to rush into a commitment. He’s got you all to himself so he knows that whether he proposes or not won’t change anything. He believes you’re there to stay so he won’t hurry into anything serious. When this starts to happen in a relationship a woman has to do just one small thing to change it. She has to start to become less available to her guy. If you believe your boyfriend has this attitude, create some distance between you two. Be subtle about it and do it gradually. Once he starts to sense that you’re not feeling as connected to him as you once did, he’ll see the commitment issue through a new set of eyes.

Understanding how to make a man commit can give a woman a distinct advantage in her relationship. Most of us have been involved with at least one commitment phobic man in our lives and we know how confusing and disappointing it can be. It truly feels like a personal rejection if you’re with a man who won’t get serious about you. If you love him and you want him to take the relationship to the next level, there are steps you should be taking. Most women don’t fully understand just how much power over the future of the relationship they hold in their own hands.

Knowing how to make a man commit begins with recognizing that pushing him isn’t going to work. The more a woman talks, begs or pleads for a serious commitment, the more her man is going to resist it. It may almost feel like a game but if you’re hoping for a proposal or even an acknowledgment of dating exclusively, you’re naturally going to feel like the loser. If you’ve been bugging your guy to get more serious about you and he’s been refusing to move in that direction, stop talking about it from this moment on. Just drop the subject. Never bring it up again. This is the first step towards getting him to want to commit and may seem like a small step, but it’s crucial.

The next step to get him to commit is a bit more obvious. You’re going to become a little distant and start being a little less available to him. If a man knows that he has your heart all wrapped up for himself, he’s going to stop trying to get you. He knows he can call you late in the evening, at the last minute, and you’ll be available to him. He also knows that he doesn’t have to be on his best behavior because you’re already committed to him. Stop being there for him. Don’t accept every one of his invitations to hang out and make other plans for at least a few evenings out of the week. Show him through your actions that you have other options. If you do this he’ll start to feel as though you’re slipping away, and he’ll suddenly be the one who wants something more serious.
