10). Dating for the sake of it

You are dating him/her not because you are actually interested in the person. You may have an ulterior motive, such as making your ex jealous,[2] proving to your colleagues that you have a partner or simply a self-confidence booster. If you are dating just for the sake of dating, how can you even think of commitment?

11).  Peer pressure

All your friends are in serious relationships, your brother has found someone too!

13).  You aren’t your real self

You wish to please your partner so you don’t show your real self to him/her. You are conscious; you feel that if you show your true colours, he/her will not like you. Well, if you are afraid to be yourself with this person, how will you have a serious relationship with him/her?

16). You’re confused

There are two people in your life and you don’t know which one you want to be with. Take your time, gauge the pros and cons before you make a decision as this can make or break not one, [9]but two relationships! You must be sure about the person and yourself before you decide to move ahead in your relationship. In case you feel you need more time, take it, because the relationship isn’t going anywhere.
