Are you in a relationship with a guy who won’t commit but won’t let you go either? You might be wondering why he’s keeping you around if he doesn’t want a relationship.
Many people believe that if a guy won’t commit, it’s because he’s confused about his feelings or that he loves you but feels conflicted. However, the truth might be something entirely different.
If you’re looking for signs he will eventually commit, don’t hold your breath. There could be several reasons why he won’t commit but still won’t let you go.
1. “She’s great but I want to keep my options open.”
At the beginning of the relationship, your guy may have treated you well and made you feel loved and special. However, if he’s not committing, it’s unlikely that he sees a future with you. He may not want to be alone, so he’s keeping you around until he finds someone else.
2. “I know that she’s not the girl for me but the sex is great.”
Men love sex, and if he’s getting it without committing, he has no reason to let you go. Even if your relationship is volatile, great sex might be a reason for him to keep you around.
3. “I don’t want her but I don’t want anyone else to have her either.”
A guy who doesn’t want to be with a girl, but doesn’t have the courage to tell her, will give her false hope by staying in touch and spending time with her. He might like the benefits of a relationship without actually committing to it.
4. “I’m so bored.”
If your guy reaches out to you sporadically, it might not be because he misses you or wishes you were with him. He might just be bored and looking for someone to pass the time with.
5. “Did I get my heart rate up enough during my bike ride?”
While you may spend a lot of time thinking about your relationship, guys typically don’t dwell on it. If he’s not interested in a woman, she’s gone from his mind until he’s bored or horny.
It’s painful to realize that he won’t commit, but the sooner you accept it and move on, the more likely you are to find the love you’re seeking. The right person is out there, so it’s time to move on and find someone who can truly love you for who you are.
