Ever have somebody tell you "I care for you and don't want you to see anyone else, but I'm not ready for a commitment"? As unprepared for commitment as you may be, you should just leave that decision up to the other person-- you know, the dumbass you wanna tie down to you without giving yourself 100%? Yeah, that person. Let THEM decide. Why should YOU be the one who holds the future of this relationship when you're the one that:
a) is pushing them away, shutting them out or facing your own fuckedupheadness and using it as an excuse
b) want to play the field, without them knowing that
c) gets absolutely burnt when there is a shift in control
You should not. Let them decide. If they're naive and ridiculously into you so that they opt out of the rest of their options, then so be it. But you, you've really got no say in what someone does because you're too stupid/bitter/jaded or plain ol' immature to commit.
Next time you're gonna tell someone you care for them... show it.
Never deny them their options. And never deny yourself your own options.
