Often times I have my clients come to me telling me: “I want more commitment in the men I date!”
To which I respond, “What does that look like for you?” Unfortunately, after asking this question, I hear crickets.
And this is the biggest reason why people over 40 have trouble finding commitment: they don’t know what commitment looks like for them!
And if they don’t know that, how can their partner possibly know that?
Today, we’ll talk about the power in knowing the answer to this commitment question.

Can you ask a man for a commitment when you are dating for a while. Like 6 months. And what about a man who won’t hold your hand in public?
Angie Fleming says
Yes- I agree with emotional maturity.
I met a man 7 months older than me.mid-Aug.
We have similar backgrounds. Both of our kids are adults too. Both of us have discussed our dating experiences which I found really interesting in his view.
What is so nice about this is he has been the one phoning me often because he does not like texting. Because we live an hour apart, we agreed we would go half way. We take turns driving to each others place. Also, him being a continental shift worker, we plan one week ahead to see each other.
Both of us do not have expectations of each other and live in the present- no pressure.

For me, commitment looks like the love and support i was denied as a teen / young adult. My friends haven’t been able to fulfill this for me, either.
Alas, men don’t want to give me love and support. I’m apparently not ‘worthy’ of this kind of devotion; must not be pretty enough, I guess.
I’m 42, never engaged or married, but I have complex PTSD. I know plenty of women with this diagnosis (and more) who are married or engaged, so I have to assume that I’m physically unattractive and/or have a rotten personality. ?
