Question - (14 June 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 14 June 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Hi everyone,

I want to hear from anyone out there who has dated a commitment phobic.

I've been with the same guy for many years now. I'm crazy about him and I have no doubt that he loves me too.. but nothing more has ever happened with us. It's never even progressed as far as moving in together! He's there for me like a husband would be.. he nurses me when I'm sick.. we share everything together.. take fun holidays away trekking up the mountain or riding rollar coasters. Our personalities gel so well.. but nothing more ever seems to happen.

It's as if he thinks his future's something that he doesn't have to sort out right now, but I'm in my late twenties and he's in his early thirties. I'm going to move away when I get a job elsewhere in the country, but was wondering whether anyone's been in my situation? Did you end up WITH the guy, did you have to leave him behind? When you left did he realise what he lost and came chasing?

Please give me advice if you've been where I currently am. Thanks

Smellyellie agony auntTo be very honest with you I think you need to sit him down and make him talk about how he is feeling and also for you to tell him how you are feeling. The first thing guys cant do is read your mind and you never know your guy might just be really slow on the up take.

Talk to him about everything and guaranteed you will get the answer you are looking for whether that be that you go without him or he comes with you.

I hope that this helps and if you need any more advice you know where to find me x
