What to say when he doesn’t want to commit
There are a few things one could say in response to a partner who says they don’t want to commit. First and foremost, you should validate their feelings and explain that it’s not always easy for everyone to stick to a plan or timeline. You can also suggest meeting again soon, sans commitment, in order to see if there’s potential for something more between the two of you. If he still wants out after speaking with you both, then it might be best to move on from him.
