Signs He has No Intention of Marrying You

Signs He has No Intention of Marrying You

We have all been there at one point or another: you start seeing someone new and it’s nearly impossible not to feel giddy with excitement every time you think about him. Everything is so fresh and new that it is easy to overlook little signs that this person you are now crazy about is not the type to settle down. The next time you start to swoon over the new person you are dating, remind yourself to pay attention to his behavior even in the earliest stages for signs he has no intention of marrying you. It might burst your romantic bubble, so to speak, but it might also save you a lot of heartache down the road when you have invested your love and time in someone who just isn’t ready to commit for the long haul. Keep in mind that these same qualities can be found in women as well! Here are some telltale clues to watch for:

He avoids interacting with your close friends and family

When a guy doesn’t see a future with you, he will often come up with every excuse in the book to skip out on quality time with the people you love the most. This can be prompted by fear of what might happen down the road if you split up, or it might just be total selfishness. Either way, if he isn’t interested in getting to know your nearest and dearest, he’s not worth keeping around!

If he still goes out on wild all-night benders and cannot stop partying like he’s still in college, he is definitely not ready to get married. Anyone who is so focused on himself that he isn’t able to be a caring, considerate and responsible partner is in no way prepared to become your spouse.

He avoids all types of commitment

If he mentions how getting a pet might tie him down or acts awkward when you ask when you will see him next, take it to heart. He might be having fun with you, but he is definitely giving you clues that he isn’t looking for anything serious.  

He doesn’t meet the approval of your friends

Your inner circle probably knows you better than you know yourself at times, so lean on them to help you weed out potential dead-end relationships. When you are in love with someone, it is common to not really see them for who they truly are. Instead, you may ignore their negative traits and affirm their positive attributes. While your pals may not feel comfortable telling you they dislike your partner unsolicited, if you ask for their honest opinions, you might be surprised by their valuable insights.

He thinks the world revolves around him

Marriage is about true partnership as well as give and take. If he is unable to focus on your needs and wants in addition to his own in the beginning of your relationship, there is little chance that things will improve. Unless you want to spend your marriage feeling like your feelings are never taken into consideration, realize that this guy would make a terrible husband.

The real you goes into hiding

Some guys have the nerve to tell the women they date that they should look or behave in certain ways. If the person you are dating has a list of things he wants you to change about yourself, run the other way! When a person isn’t interested in being in a relationship with the real you, flaws and all, they are simply not worth your time.

He goes from full throttle to barely interested

Let’s be honest: guys love the thrill of the chase. The beginning of a relationship is usually filled with passion, romance and intrigue, but after a guy feels like he got what he was after, he might act bored and uninterested. If he is unable or unwilling to build a deeper emotional connection with you from the beginning, he is definitely not marriage material.

Now that you are aware of the signs he has no intention of marrying you, you will be able to see things more clearly in your future relationships.
