Hi Steliana,
For one thing your post makes it sound like you're desperate and needy and that your life won't have meaning if this man doesn't commit to you the way you want him to. That's enough pressure to make anyone want to back off - no matter how much they care about you.

It's not the job of either of you to make the other happy and fulfilled. That's something you have to find within yourself. You can enhance each other's lives and contribute meaning and depth, but to expect him to fulfill you and do for you more than you're willing to do for yourself, is unrealistic and a burdensome. I think that if you begin to take more responsibility for your own happiness and self-worth, you may just find him more drawn to you. If you really love him, let him come around if, and when he's ready.

All the best!
