Topic: have men given up real commitment? | |
---|---|
Commitment isn't a problem for me. Commitment to the wrong person is.

I thought I wanted someone who was self supporting. Really I'm finding I dont. I want someone over here. By my stuff. I have to be here. Cause I'm actually working. Even though it doesn't look like it.

i was with someone for 11 years faithful, and i was a caregiver. i gave her everything i had. from faithful love, and she was also very sick, i stuck with her through everything, and took care of her autistic son. when she got better, she wanted someone not tired and older, and moved on. this makes no difference in love, but she did go through about $400,000.00 on top of that, before she left. what's money, when you love someone? but i don't think she loved me, so who's faithful nowadays? who's really honest? i know i was. everything was on her terms..... never again, i want my freedom, and i want someone to enhance my life, by being a friend, but nobody will own me, ever again. It's sad to know one got such a raw deal but at least within you know you did right up to the very end regardless if she did or not. As far as anyone owning anyone that should never be in the first place. Why some seem to have the need to control someone's life I will never understand that at all. Funny though I let my ex pretty much do what he wanted too he went out with his friends when he wanted too. There was no calling and asking can I go it was just to call and let the other know where they would be. Trusted him to the max but he could not in return give me the same respect. Would I still be the same with another sure for I do not see that just because of what he did the next man would do the same. I still believe the next one should be treated with the same respect and trust as I was willing to give to him. |

I think that a lot of people have given up true commitment. Both men and women. In an instant gratification society, commitment means too much work with very distant and iffy returns.

Id have to agree with the pain thing on some level. But also i dont think guys have given up commitment at all. Hell i know i wish i had that with someone who was not only my love rbut bestfriend. I think thats whats wrong we just get witht he wrong people. Love isnt some magical thing that just happens, anyone who is in love will tell you that the person they love is also their best friend....Look for a friend before you look for that commited lover Your right Rico, like I said on my profile, Im not just looking for a lover, but also my best friend! |

yes we have given up, every single last one of us, we're all the same, we all suck, and you should just give up now and save yourself from grief and frustration.
grrrr, I really really hate it when people generalize. |

I find that most men just want me committed!!! They would be less likely to want to do that if you would leave their toothbrushes alone. |

Not all of us are " afraid " of commitment.
Some of us have just been burned severely and are now very cautious about who we give our hearts to. |

My honest opinion from the women I have dated? 1. They don't think you are worth a commitment 2. They are still little children.

I'm all about commitment. Was committed for 11 years even though many times I had reason not to be. Just not who I am. Now, she's leaving. My heart is shattered. I am in a lot of pain.
But I still believe in love and commitment. I hope someday I can have that again. |

I have no doubts that my significant other is quite committed to both my well being and the relationship, despite any vices he may have.
