Broke up with the ex over 7 weeks now, been reading a lot online and came over this thing called "future commitment issues".

 

It's about the person who would jump straight to future fantasies when they are only in the early stage of relationship. And when they are back realising they are in the reality they would just break off the relationship.

 

I've been trying to search more about it but all I got was "commitment issues" which is when people are too scared to actually commit or go deeper.

 

So I'm wondering if anyone here could shed some light on this topic, or point me to the right direction to learn more about this.

 

Thank you.

I think what you're referring to is known as "future faking," behaviour typically displayed by emotionally unavailable people.

 

There's a lot of info on BaggageReclaim that you might find useful.

Is it something that is "recoverable" or able to "get rid of"? Like will it fade or gone as one grow older and get more mature?

 

Or is it more of a psychological issue?

Most "fear" of commitment really lies in the fear to tell the truth. They don't see a future with you. The people who can't extract a commitment out of someone just can't seem to see it that way. Too bruising to the ego, I suppose.
