Why Am I Still Scared Of Commitment? by Canibus: 4:46pm On Apr 08, 2008 |
Commitment Still Scares Me. Why? I am a good looking guy of 23, but i wonder why I still see commitment as a big problem. It scares the shit out of me. Why is this and what is the way to eradicate it? Because I really want to enjoy a very stable relationship. Maybe is the reason why I don't waste time on toasting,if after[b]2 weeks and no green light[/b], I scram off. Please sincerely speaking open up Nairalanders. |

Vex for wetin? you'll spend all your time bed hoppin, if you don't learn to commit. You will commit when you fall in love, cos love changes everythin. |

2WEEKS AND NO GREEN LIGHT sorry oooo,but are u trying to tell us u r a player or wat? |
Re: Why Am I Still Scared Of Commitment? by ssRhino: 6:01pm On Apr 08, 2008 |
IF within 2 weeks of talking to a lady, u already "u scram off" then, u surely not yet ready to even date, cos i am sure that if you meet a lady and she give you a green light in less than 2 weeks, you will come back here and complain on how cheap she could be, na wa oh, what exactly do u want. You can't be talking of commitment, if you cant even scale thru the hurdle of toasting the babe right. Check within and find why you are not patient enuf for something you sure could be good. |

@poster, I think you are not yet ready to commit yourself to anybody, A good lady deserves more than two months to give her green light unless you met her on a night club. It does not mean that both of you will not be going out together but remember we are talking about commitment. This is another human being with a different brain chemistry. Forget the similar physiology. You don't have to give them time to make up their minds, Get matured. I wish you goodluck on your next try. Canibus: Remember, stop abusing people for their opinions. All you have to do is to report to the board moderator.Its her job to decide what to do with the post.If you keep sounding like this, people will be scared of giving you advice. |

Re: Why Am I Still Scared Of Commitment? by mikkyphp(m): 1:58pm On Apr 09, 2008 |
@poster i feel your pain, i used to be grossly petrified though for other reasons. the answer: just get a girl that seems to fit fairly into your ideal sppecs for a gf/wiffy, then take it step by step. chiks could be very annoying, but you'll only get worked up and feel like wantin-out if you think like a "MAN"! thats where you need patience to work.take your time, dont speak any words at such moments or you may just mess everything up. try to calmly see d situation thru' her lenses and discuss your disaffection with her calmly.thats if she's reasonable sha try not to lose your temper. and with time she'll also try to understand u and u her. but she has to be someone you like o if not, you'll lose your patience easily. , to be continued, |

Hi guys, This our nairaland brother really needed an advise or a clue to his problem, i wonder why on earth Nigerians won't change for the better. He expected you to give him something he can hold/rely on to make a dramatic change of his situation rather you guys were just disappointing him by not focusing on the topic, though some nairalanders are very very understanding, i commend those that are very understanding, those who try to help people that needs it, not those that uses it as weapon. Please nairalanders try to help guys who are in need, God bless!!! |

Re: Why Am I Still Scared Of Commitment? by frank316(m): 4:00pm On Apr 09, 2008 |
i think you have some insecurites that is making you withdraw after trial. have you ever, really dated a girl? i mean are you still a virgin? another reason could be that you are scared that they dont really like you, their response is not encouraging you and you are scared of rejection. you are turned off by words like 1) i have a boyfriend 2) i am not interested 3) why do you ask? please i am not in the mood to talk 4) i dont have time for all these tings you are talking about. My man, slow and steady wins the race. bring out your time for a woman and dont mind her nagative response (i call them jelly walls) if you try with one and it does not work out learn fronmyour mistake and try another and for Gods sake stop being scared of commitment, it is one of the best ways you can enjoy life. |

Quote from: Canibus on Today at 01:17:44 PM @D-RELOADED-- u can see why i said no stupid comments,WHAT DO You MEAN 'AIDS WARD'Statements like these make you think that some threads are actually traps that have been set up in wait for the usual customers. So one has to tread carefully. The poster's comment (regarding a 2 week ultimatum) surely bring's him out as a seasoned player even at 23. Some guys will include a budget and vary it according to the girl's percieved worth within a given time frame. It is hard to blame these guys because there is so much love scam going on. On the other hand well intentioned genuine relationships frequently don't go any where because the girl chose to be clever by half. My guy, I think you are in serious trouble and this is no joke. I however hope you will get someone to whom you feel connected before you are 30 otherwise your life and carrier is screwed. |

Re: Why Am I Still Scared Of Commitment? by almondjoy(f): 5:18am On Apr 10, 2008 |
@poster You don't have to go about toasting. You may have a serious problem on your hands without knowing it. Let's go back to the classroom please! Listen students. Committment has to do with a solid, healthy, psychological foundation beginning from infancy. If people have failed you in the past. . . you learn not to have close ties. It is called habituation. Unfortunately, there is no cure for this kind of dysfunction. It has a lot to do with trust or love. Most people who were not given attention in infancy and early childhood. . polygamous set ups especially. . . never realize these kinds of goals. They keep jumping from girlfriend to girlfriend and woman to woman without any satisfaction in the end. It is recommended. . . by me of course, that new mothers should breast feed their male infants especially for at least 2 years to enable them learn to trust their people in their environment to a certain degree. They that need more than the female infants as you can see around you. Men have more dysfunctional relationships than women. Trust in this case meaning the ablity to maintain loving relationships for extended periods of time. . . not with your heart and soul! Na Erikson talk am ooooooooooooooh No be me!
@Topic So, please this is some serious problem. . . please find a way to commit to someone before it is too late. As you get older, it can only get worse. One of the dangers of polygamy I say. Too many children and not enough love! Too many children growing up lost. This also happens in monogamous homes, don't get me wrong. But I think this kind of behavioural science. . . .can only explain why a lot of people cannot commit to one person. They grew up in such environments where there were no clear cut boundaries in relationships. One father. . .12 mothers, 1 biological father, 2 step fathers 6 half brothers, 1 full sister 4 runaway mothers with 8 different new husbands. . . more step upon step children. . . . and so on and so forth. . . it is not surprising that one will find it hard to commit to anybody if you have spent the whole of your life trying to figure out who is who. @poster Not saying polygamy is your problem, but I feel that is why many children all over the world grow up as dysfunctional adults unable to commit in relationships. Unstable role models in their lives. When that is not the case. . .drugs and alcohol or some form of psychosis must be present. Please check which you have and start the desired therapy. Always willing to lend a helping hand to the lost and weary! |
