Why are men commitment phobic?

It is a known fact that worldwide, across different cultures and communities, men eagerly seek casual no strings attached (NSA) relationships, hookups and situationships which offer sex, physical intimacy, erotic pleasure, fun and companionship. However, the moment their partner develops some emotional attachment or wants commitment, several men develop cold feet and run away.

In this talk show, television anchor Syed Hamza Shah talks to Pulkit Sharma, a clinical psychologist, psychoanalytic therapist, spiritual counselor and author now based in Pondicherry, India about the symptoms, causes and prognosis of fear of commitment inherent in men. Pulkit Sharma draws upon his understanding of deep-seated unconscious conflicts, personality traits and social and cultural factors to comprehend this very common phobia in men. Although this television program was recorded and aired in 2011, the psychoanalytical and social insights shared by Pulkit Sharma on male psychology remain timeless and are very relevant even today.
