Where’s the Commitment

Her Campus Placeholder Avatar Ryan Clauson

Is there any length of time of which you’ve been dating someone without commitment that you can assume you’ll never get any commitment for the guy? I.e. If you’ve been casually dating/hooking up with someone for over a year does this mean he’ll never want to date you?

There is no rule that is always right. But the above depends on you. If you want a serious exclusive relationship with a guy, yet you allow him to date you for a year without making a full commitment, than you are working against your own self-interests. You are letting the guy know that he does not need to fully commit to you because you will be with him either way. Never take what you can get. Always go out and find exactly what you want and stand up for it. Men are extremely attracted to women who live their life that way. 

You want HIM to be in a relationship with you…since apparently you can’t be in one with yourself.
