Re: Fear of commitment, fear of being alone
Interesting thread...
I have no fear of commitment, I've been committed for a very long time!

Re: Fear of commitment, fear of being alone
Are you commited to fear for non-commitment??

I LOVE what you do with the English language, Vautrin! It isn't your first language, either, I understand.....

Re: Fear of commitment, fear of being alone
It is not my first. But chances are quite high I will be spending most of the rest of my life in an English speaking country. I am practicing my wit.

Re: Fear of commitment, fear of being alone
And you do very well. I am impressed. I don't fear being alone. I used to but as I am getting older I am not afraid of it anymore. I don't fear commitment either. I have been in a relationship for almost 23 years. I would commit to another in a heartbeat so I don't fear either. Keeping the commitment is another story however.

I don't think you need any more practise, you're witty enough already, IMO!

Never. I don't fear being in a league of my own.

Re: Fear of commitment, fear of being alone
I'm used to being "alone" as in not in a relationship just because of how often I move around or jobs I have. Being in one right now is just weird to me.

Re: Fear of commitment, fear of being alone
i dont want to loose another prson i ove so much. by being commited to them would mean i take that risk. somthing im very wary of.
also commitment can hurt. i devoted myself to my ex. that didnt turn out so well. sometimes i worry if my friends hadnt been around to give me the strenght i needed at that time, and the realization of my friends death. i would of stay in that relationship forever.
when i commit i commit for life, its something ive always done. but having it used against you is so horrible  it has made me very wary and unsure.
