Why are men accused of having a fear of commitment?

I have had a few relationships since my divorce seven years ago. I haven’t met someone that I want to spend the rest of my life with yet. I have dated some wonderful women but I just didn’t want to marry them. Why do they accuse me of having a problem because I don’t want to spend my life with them? Can’t women just face the fact that they aren’t the right one without making the man out to be damaged?

I think people misinterpret reluctance on the part of a person to commit. People who take commitment seriously are the ones who don’t jump into it. It doesn’t mean you’re damaged, it means you’re being more careful with your heart. Just make sure that you haven’t closed yourself off from forming emotional relationships.
