I'm not sure how it happened or how I didn't realise but I have been dating a guy for 15 months and today it dawned on me...he is a commitment phobe.
I have 3 children from my previous relationship and they know him and think the world of him.
He has a daughter from a previous relationship who he adores.
He had a horrible childhood and has abandonment fears which now I realise contributed to him becoming scared of commitment.
He is currently having counselling though he has told me this is due to his inability to talk in a relationship and has not told me he is scared to commit.
I love him, I guess what I want to know is what can I do?
