How Do I Know If He Is Nervous About Marriage?

Men are always afraid of commitment and the thought of marriage can really wet their pants. Kidding aside, a lot of men are really nervous about marriage. Want to know if your man is ready to say “I do”? Here are a few signs that may say “Ooops, he’s not ready yet”.

Looks away
Most men look away when asked about marriage. If you can’t make eye contact with him when talking about this topic, then this is one big sign that marriage is not on his plans yet. Most men look away because they don’t want you to read their eyes because you will surely find that in those eyes, you will know that he is unsure about marriage.

Getting fidgety
Men look fidgety and even break into a cold sweat when talking about marriage. This is a sure sign of nervousness when he is fidgety with things around.

Gaze at you blankly
Men can have this particular reaction when you bring up marriage. He might not look away, but he will look at you quietly and blankly as if you said the worst thing in the world that makes him completely speechless and bowled over.

Shifts subjects
This one is a classic. Whenever a woman mentions marriage, he will suddenly remember something else and talk about it instead. He will shift the subject to hide his nervousness. Most of the time, men are caught off guard about this subject and they can mask their true emotions by talking fast and lively about a different subject matter all together hoping that you will stop talking about it.

Excuses
Men who are giving excuses about why he doesn’t want to get married is probably nervous about marriage. The excuse may be a promotion or a big project coming up that he wants to focus on to delay the marriage.

Saying yes
Now here’s the catch, a man that say ‘yes’ as an outright answer may mean that he is not yet prepared for marriage. Remember that tying that knot needs a lot of preparation emotionally and financially and a quick answer can show signs of immaturity.
