You wonder what went wrong. Your boyfriend seemed to be the right guy for you. In fact he seemed perfect for you. In the end, when you were ready to commit to an exclusive relationship, he left. How could it happen?

It’s because you probably didn’t know what serious questions to ask your boyfriend before you tried to take your relationship to the next level of commitment.

Do you have some serious questions to ask your boyfriend?
Do you have some serious questions to ask your boyfriend?

By knowing what he wants in the beginning of the relationship you may be able to avert some of the problems that arise when you don’t really get to know him.

This is not about having “the talk,” this is about you discovering the things that are important in an exclusive relationship. All of these questions can come up in normal conversation.

The last thing you want to do is have a grilling session. No man wants to feel like he’s being relentlessly questioned in some sort of relationship interrogation. So, keep it light and ask when you feel the time is appropriate.

How Do You Feel About Being in An Exclusive Relationship?

Make sure you’re on the same page. It’s easy to believe that the man you’re with wants a serious relationship, but you won’t know if you don’t ask. You don’t want to find out later that he’s not interested in anything serious.

This is a serious question to ask your boyfriend which will allow you to know that his attention and affection will be just for you.

Is Our Relationship Important to You? Am I Important?

Do you need to ask? Actions speak louder than words in this instance. Look at what he does from his overt actions to the more subtle things. He may not be climbing a ladder to your window to profess his undying love, but he might be showing it in other ways.

This is a serious question to ask your boyfriend that you actually don’t have to ask. Just pay attention to how he treats you.

Is This Relationship Going to be Long Term?

If you want a long term relationship you need to know that he wants the same thing. Find out what he’s looking for in a relationship. You’re setting yourself up for disappointment if you think that he’ll change his mind. While it may happen, it more likely that it won’t.

This is a serious question to ask your boyfriend which will help save your from the heartache of false expectations about a future together.

The funny thing I keep meeting guys who need this guide to keep them from scaring the women away, not the other way around! I know it doesn't fit the stereotypes but there are plenty of commitment phobic women who have scorned too many times. Men should ask these questions of their potential female partner as well as women asking them of men.

That's true. After my divorce I was one of those commitment phobic women.
