This time, no. We just celebrated 5 years together last week. It was my s/o in my previous relationship that seemed to have commitment phobia.
-
NOPE! thank the high heavens for that one. :)
-
Is that considered a relationship?
-
No I am not in a relationship and my Husband certainly was not afraid of commitment.

Not "officially" but she keeps reaching out even though she's said it's over and is dating someone else. But she shows all of the classic signs: Came on strong, backed off whenever she started to get serious, expressed fear over her strong feels for me and mine for her, questioning/doubting my sincerity then backing off when I affirm my level of commitment. I'm trying to move on (emotionally, geographically) but she just keeps it up. It's tough and if I had known/realized she was a commitment phobe I wouldn't have stayed in it this long.

yes. but it is both of us. we are both commitment-phobes. which is why i think, oddly enough, we've stayed together this long...

Fortunately no. When I hear of someone being 'committment phobic', I can't help but wonder whether it's as much about the person not wanting to be committed to that particular person. And it's a way of softening the blow, in lieu of telling the other person, they're not the type of partner they're looking for. And if they truly are 'committment phobic' then it's an exercise in banging- your- head -against a- brick- wall futility if a committed r/ship is what you seek.
