Summary

People have a tendency to want avoid the truth for as long as possible, especially in dating and relationship situations. The writing can be on the wall, and they'll still be searching for explanations that make them feel better.... and telling themselves a story that is based on a fantasy of how they wished things could be. Getting all caught-up in someone who doesn't want to commit to you is only going to drain you and waste your time.

Hi guys, the topic of this episode is why were they afraid to commit? I'm just

0:29.4

gonna get straight to the point with this one. There are so many people who

0:34.1

stay stuck because they're either telling themselves that the person they were

0:38.2

interested in was afraid to commit or the person they were interested in told

0:45.4

1:22.2

really likes someone says, oh my god, I'm too scared to commit. See ya. Peace out.

1:47.6

grown-ass person and tell someone, oh I'm too scared to commit to you. That would

1:53.4

actually fall into the territory of Ick. No, they just don't want to put effort

2:00.1

into you on that level. They have no problem doing relationship things with you

2:05.4

though of course. Miraculously, they have no fear where that's concerned. Yeah,

they can use you and sleep with you, no problem. They're not shivering with
