How to tell when a man is ready to commit

Can you really tell if a man is ready to commit?

I think so. You can also tell when they are not ready to commit.

I remember distinctly feeling very awkward at 27 when my girl friend started talking about marriage and settling down. Somehow in my mind I knew I wasn’t emotionally, psychologically not to mention financially ready for marriage commitment. So I balked or should I say bolted. It wasn’t that I didn’t love her, deep in my guts I knew that it would be a major disaster for both of us.

There have been a lot said and written about men and commitment. I profoundly believe and know that men are not commitment averse as some women seem to believe. In fact I believe that certain things tend to trigger that need to commit.

It could be maturity. It could be a serious event. A friend on mine who got a close shave with death through and accident wanted to marry the girl he spent the last 5 years with the next month. He realized how precious time and people are. It could be achieving financial and successful goals. It could even be the insistence of the woman that they shape up or ship out of the relationship if they continue to waste time. Some men realize how much a woman means to them after she leaves the relationship to pursue a relationship with another man.

Interestingly the story of Adam and Eve carries a great insight. The Bible story indicated that when Adam named all the created animals he realised that there was no creature that was similar or compatible to him. Somehow after this need and realisation kicked in God made a woman for him. On seeing her immediately he felt a great satisfaction that someone who is similar to him can share with him. In other words if a man do not come to the realization he needs someone to complement him, that guy would not easily commit.

How can you tell he is actually ready and serious without nagging him?

  1. He begins to talk about a future with you and him. His conversation would have more “we” the “me or I.” He talks either about children and makes plans to buy or rent a house to accommodate more than one person.
  2. He brand cheap order announces to any and everyone would care to listen that you are his woman. This is a step in committing to you as he now becomes accountable to other people, especially his friends and family.
  3. He may begin to subtly ask you question around the issue trying to find out how you would respond if he pops the question.
  4. He would ask you how you feel about the idea and may even directly propose.
  5. Most men whose siblings and friends are married are more likely to commit
  6. Men who are from traditional or religious background tend to be more likely to commit to a marriage and family.
  7. Men who have become financially stable and own/rent a place tend to see themselves able to provide are more inclined to commit.

The good news is, unlike what many women believe, you do not have sit around and wait for a man to decide – you can definitely influence the process. You can get a man to start the process of commitment by doing several thinks. Click here now to find out how.
