What is Fear of Commitment?
Fear of commitment refers to an irrational fear or avoidance of long-term relationships or marriage. Also known as gamophobia, the term comes from the Greek word “Gamos” for marriage and “Phobos” (phobia) meaning fear.
The fear of commitment typically involves an aversion to deep connections or a reluctance to enter a serious relationship due to concerns about potential emotional consequences. This can lead to feelings of hurt, frustration, confusion, anger, embarrassment, and eventual apathy as individuals may give up on the relationship.
Although fear of commitment is not a diagnosable condition in the DSM-5, it can significantly affect an individual’s social, occupational, personal, and other life areas over time.
Symptoms of Fear of Commitment
- Maintaining relationships at a casual level or keeping them open
- Hesitating to open up or share intimate thoughts with partners
- Using excuses or finding faults in others as reasons to break up
- Avoiding situations where discussions about settling down or marriage arise
- Feeling emotionally detached or uncomfortable when attempting to build a secure romantic relationship
