Commitment phobes may seem to respond well to affection when you are together, such as by responding well to compliments and holding your hand.

For a commitment phobe, this helps them become unhappy with the relationship and helps to rationalize a break up. Commitment phobes are afraid of learning about the serious aspects of your life. That is because it requires a level of commitment between the two of you, which might be too much for them to handle. Pay attention to the conversations you have together. See if they only talk about themselves or superficial topics without a mention of you. They may ask a general "how are you" type question when you first see each other, but there will be no questions about your life, your wellbeing, or interests.

I'd love if you'd be my date" or "I have to go to a family dinner. I would appreciate you going with me to help me get through the evening."
