Why he won’t call you wifey

BY NICOLE NATION 

Women love titles, Mrs being one of the most coveted. But what if he doesn’t want to give you the title of wifey? Is there a reason behind this madness?

Romance author Richie Drenz shares the reasons why he doesn’t want to give you the ring or the keys to his house.

1. He wants the milk but not the cow

If all this time you have been giving him all that he wants without any commitment, then why should he place any value on it? It’s either you’re willing to live with the current arrangement or you can negotiate the terms of your relationship. If he is unwilling to give you the relationship status you want, then it may be advisable to leave that relationship.

2. He sees you as temporary

Why give you a title if you are only a temporary arrangement? No matter how many daydreams you may be having about your future together, if he doesn’t see it happening anytime soon, he might just opt to keep things as they are. For him, you’re a stand-in until he finds something better.

3. He’s still not over his ex

Whether you’re willing to admit it or not, he might still not be over his ex. Every woman has the ability to discern these things; they are able to use their intuition. For all you know you might have been the rebound after his major break up; a distraction so that he doesn’t have to deal with his true feelings. You can either choose to give him time to sort himself out, or you can leave if you’re feeling as if you’re being shortchanged.

4. He still has his hand in the bag

Every woman wants to be the one and only in a man’s life. But what if you’re not? Maybe he is evaluating his other options and he can’t give you the title because that will upset the equilibrium that he has worked so hard to maintain. Hint, hint, if you’re in public and he checks out every single woman, it is a sure sign that his appetite cannot be satisfied by just one woman.

5. You’re moving way too fast

Many women are guilty of this – once they meet a man who could be a potential mate, they automatically start envisioning themselves walking down the aisle with them; the number of children that they are going to have; where they are going to live, etc. Slow down, Juliet, Romeo is not quite ready! In his mind, you’re just a friend and even though you may want more from him; it’s best to wait. Give him the time he needs. Mind you, if he is taking too long, it’s time for you to take a hint.
