• He has expressed a desire to keep things casual and not commit to anything serious.
– Translation: This guy is about as committed as a squirrel in the middle of winter. If he’s saying that he wants to take it slow, then chances are high that he’s just not that into you.
• He avoids making future plans with the person in question, indicating a lack of interest in pursuing a long-term relationship.
– Translation: When someone keeps dodging your requests for dinner next week or weekend getaways, they’re probably more interested in spending time on their own than building something meaningful with you.
• When asked about commitment, he becomes evasive or defensive rather than engaging in open communication.
– Translation: It’s like trying to pull teeth out when asking this guy if there’s any chance of taking things further. If his response is always “I don’t know” or “let’s see what happens”, then it might be time to move on.
• His actions suggest that he is more focused on his own needs and desires rather than building a partnership with someone else.
– Translation: You can tell where someone’s priorities lie by how much effort they put into maintaining relationships. If all this dude cares about is himself (and maybe video games), then it’s safe to say he won’t be putting much energy into being part of your life either.
• He may be hesitant to introduce the person in question to important people in his life such as family members or close friends.
– Translation: If you’ve been dating for months but still haven’t met anyone from his inner circle, then Houston we have a problem! Either this guy doesn’t think enough of you yet OR there could be other reasons why keeping separate lives makes sense…but let’s assume the former!
• There may be inconsistencies between what he says and how he acts, leading to confusion for the other party involved.
– Translation: Actions speak louder than words. If this guy is saying one thing but doing another, then it’s time to take a closer look at what he’s really all about.
• He may have exhibited similar behavior patterns towards past partners.
– Translation: This isn’t his first rodeo when it comes to commitment issues. If you’re seeing the same red flags that other women have seen before you, then chances are high that history will repeat itself in your relationship too.
• The person questioning his level of interest should trust their instincts and communicate openly about their expectations for the relationship moving forward.
– Translation: Don’t be afraid to speak up if something doesn’t feel right or if you want more from this guy! You deserve someone who’s willing to put in as much effort as you are – and if they’re not willing, then sayonara!
• He may prioritize his own individual goals and aspirations over building a life with someone else, indicating a lack of readiness for commitment.
– Translation: It seems like this dude has some serious soul-searching left to do before he can commit himself fully (or even partially) into anything long-term.
• There may be patterns of inconsistency or unreliability in the relationship that suggest he is not fully invested.
– Translation: When things aren’t adding up between how often he texts/calls versus how often he actually shows up on dates…it might mean there’s trouble brewing beneath the surface here folks!
• He may avoid discussing important topics such as future plans or personal values, which can indicate avoidance around committing to something long-term.
– Translation: Look out for any signs that point toward him being non-committal because no matter how great everything feels now; without an open dialogue regarding where each party wants things headed eventually leads nowhere fast!
• If he has expressed fears about past relationships or negative experiences with commitment, this could contribute to hesitancy towards pursuing one now.
-Translation: This guy might have some serious emotional baggage that he’s carrying around. If you’re not ready to deal with it (and the potential fallout), then it might be time to cut your losses and move on.
• It’s possible that there are external factors at play (such as work stress or family issues) that are affecting his ability to commit rather than any particular issue with the person involved.
– Translation: Sometimes life gets in the way of what we want most. Maybe this dude is going through a rough patch right now, but if things don’t change soon…it’s time for an exit strategy!
