How to Get a Playboy to Commit

If you want to know how to get a playboy to commit to a serious relationship there are a number of questions you need to ask yourself first, which are less about him, and more about you!

Bad boys, you can’t help but love ’em, can you? They’re hot and sexy, spontaneous and unpredictable, they have that twinkle in their eye and they know exactly how to make you feel like the only girl on the planet.

What girl wouldn’t want to feel like that?

The thing is, they’re like vampires. Everything about them is designed to draw you in and intoxicate you while they suck you dry. When they have satisfied their appetite, they let go and you fall to the ground drained while they go on on the hunt for fresh blood.

You want to know how to get a playboy to commit? It’s like asking how to get a vampire to leave the shadows and spend time with you in the sunshine.  Never going to happen!

What you need to know about playboys

What they desire is completely different to what you desire. They have different needs. They satisfy your needs by making you feel special and attractive, but they don’t need the same kind of assurance from you because they know they can have pretty much any girl they want, including you!

Playboys are attracted to the thrill of the chase and risk element of brief encounters, hot flings and secret love affairs. They usually have lots of energy and need to find ways to burn it, which usually means an increased sexual appetite.

If you have the energy to match then you may be able to sustain his interest for longer than most women. Especially if you aren’t readily available at the click of a finger. Any girl with a confident air of independence about her is sure to attract his attention. But, is this honestly who you are and what you want, or is it a front?

Not all playboys will play behind your back though, it’s unfair to generalise. Just because he likes to have his fun it doesn’t mean he is going to cheat on you and sleep with other women. How comfortable are you with the amount of sexy female friends he has in his phone though?

Remember, this is a guy who loves to flirt! It might not mean much to him because its just in his nature. The question you have to ask is, can you handle it? Can you trust him? Will it bother you? You are the one with all the choices here. Do you choose to stay or find a guy who better suits your emotional or relationship needs?

How do you know if your guy is genuine?

Sometimes it is difficult to tell whether or not a guy is genuine or just stringing you along to get his jollies. Is that little voice inside your head insecurities or instinct?

Unsure about your guy’s intentions? The best thing to do if you are the beginning of a relationship or just dating is to keep your distance as much as possible. If he is genuine he will respect you for wanting to take things at a slower pace.

If he is a crooked playboy then he will put the pressure on. Hold out! Don’t sleep with him immediately and try to maintain your own life and friends as much as possible.

Perhaps the worst thing you can do is play games though. Don’t play hard to get or try to be something you’re not. Remember that being your own person and maintaining your independence is not the same as playing hard to get, and neither is holding out before sleeping with him. 

Warning signs

If you’re not sure whether or not he is a playboy, watch out for these signs…

• His attention towards you is very sexual and full on.
• He makes you feel wonderful. Always be suspicious of a guy who shares his innermost feelings too soon – guys don’t do this unless they are after something! Remember that guys tend to be a bit more commitment phobic than ladies. If your guy is coming on strong with the lovey-dovey, then he might not be what he seems. There are always exceptions, but keep an open mind.
• He displays secretive behaviour, hides his phone or is vague about what he is doing.A guy who hides his phone has something to hide. Also, if he’s constantly checking his phone when you’re out together, or leaving quickly after receiving a text, you’re being played.
• You find out he has very flirtatious online relationships with female friends, that he doesn’t necessarily want you to read.
• His interest in you dulls if after a few weeks you haven’t slept with him yet.

Are You Being Played?

Of course, those signs aren’t always simple..

Maybe he’s doing it to be a jerk, maybe he’s doing it because he needs the ego boost, or maybe he’s just doing it because he can. Whatever the reason, here are 10 signs you’re being played (and reasons you should definitely rethink your relationship).

Sure Signs He’s Afraid Of Commitment

Are you trying to figure out if he’s a commitment-phobe or not? Is he serious with you or just want to have fun? There are some surefire ways to figure it out on your own.

That’s not to say that each one of these signs serves as a pass/fail indicator of his commitment to you, but a combination of these things should give you a clear picture of what he really wants from you.

Can you get a playboy to commit?

If you are not sure whether or not you are dating a playboy, or if you know your man has a bad reputation but you think you can make him change his bad boy ways, have a little think…

1. Is he really worth the stress and emotion? Let’s face it, being involved with a known playboy is a risk, and there can never be guarantee that he will be faithful. If you have forgiven him once, will you honestly be able to open up and make yourself vulnerable to him again? When its a question of trust, how far are you willing to be broken, before he realises its time to stop? He may never realise it, or may not want to.
2. How much do you respect yourself? Putting your trust in a man who has already betrayed your trust is risky business. Sure, everyone deserves a second chance, but was his a one-off mistake or is this just the kind of man he is? how much are you willing to put up with before you realise that if you don’t respect yourself, how can you expect him to respect you?
3. Its a well-known fact that you can’t control or change other people, they have to want to change themselves. The only thing you have control over is yourself and how you feel. Do you feel messed up, insecure and crazy? That’s your choice, you have put yourself in that situation and you have the choice to take yourself out of it. You don’t have the control however to make him behave in a way that will make you feel better. Is it worth trying to get a playboy to commit, or will you just end up battling with yourself?
