This sign is passionate, bold, reckless, and will risk anything for love. However, they’re all about the chase and conquering their lovers, than actually wanting to commit to them in the long run.
Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of passion, war, aggression, and sex. It is a very intense planet that makes love feel like a war to all Aries men. They need to win the challenge and get the prize.
This makes Aries men extremely passionate and enthusiastic when it comes to love. They throw everything they have into the person they are interested in. This is a man who is all in or nothing.
However, it takes a lot for an Aries man to commit to a woman. Sure, he’s loyal once he’s made his commitment, but he also needs his freedom and independence and he feels like relationships take this away from him.
Are you struggling to get your Aries man to commit? Then you have come to the right place! Keep reading to find out how to get an Aries man to commit. You’ll be amazed at how practical these tips and tricks can be!
First Things First, What Makes an Aries Man Commit?
There are certain qualities in a woman that make an Aries man want to commit. These are the things that will make an Aries want to have you by his side:
1. Be Strong & Independent
Although the Aries man often loves a lady in distress (to attract him); he will not want a woman who needs his help constantly. That being said, it’s often better for him to show you how and learn.
In other words, let’s take changing a fuse in your house for example. You blow one and have no idea what to do or how to change it. You ask him for his help. He comes over because he doesn’t want you to sit in the dark.
He goes to the fuse box to change it; follow him! Watch what he does and tell him “I’ve never done this but I’m watching so I can learn just in case it happens to me again and you’re not around”. He’ll be impressed.
This way next time it happens; if ever; you’ll know what to do and won’t have to call on him to come out yet again. This will show him that though you needed his help; you were willing to learn so you can do it.
So be the woman who needs help sometimes but learns from what he does so that you can also do things for yourself. Independence is a nice quality to have whether you’re with someone or not.
2. A Woman Who Is Kind & Compassionate
Aries men have fiery tempers and need a partner that will cool them off or balance them better. Staying calm during the storm is necessary to have a healthy relationship with this hot-headed man.
When you’re with him; be really sweet and tender. He’ll really love it and reciprocate. He craves this type of attention. When he feels comfortable with how nurturing you are; your Aries man will be more likely to commit.
But whatever you do; don’t push him to commit. He won’t take well to commands or demands of any sort. It is better that you gently nudge him with being a total sweetheart.
3. A Woman Who Can Be Patient
The true core of getting it to last long term with an Aries man is going to be making sure you don’t dive in too quickly. Aries men tend to jump in head first and rather fast.
Do not allow him to do that. I know you want him to commit but if he commits too fast; he’ll possibly back peddle or cause problems for you two later on. It’s much healthier to take your time.
While you’re daydreaming about what it will be like to be in a long-term relationship with him; stay cool and relaxed. Remember he needs the yin to his yang.
Take a deep breath and take your time. Try to take your mind off of him by doing things you really enjoy or spending time with friends. Remember, if an Aries man misses you; he’ll want to spend more time with you.
If you don’t allow him to have space or time; he’ll dive in and you’ll both end up bored in a fairly quick amount of time or butting heads. You don’t want either of those two scenarios to happen.

How To Get An Aries Man To Commit (4 Effective Ways)
Any woman can make an Aries man commit, she just needs to play her cards right and make him think that it was his idea in the first place. Here are my best tips to help you win over his heart and make him commit to a long-term relationship:
1. Make Yourself A Priority
If there is one thing an Aries man respects more than anything, then it is a woman who will always put herself first. I know this sounds counterintuitive, but the thing is, an Aries man always puts himself first no matter what.
This man always practices radical self-love, always. And when he notices a woman do the same, he can’t help but respect her deeply for it. When a woman goes for gold and follows her dreams, it inspires an Aries man and makes him want to commit.
You don’t want to chase an Aries man, ever. This will only put him off, the best way to get his attention is to live and a full and happy life, and he won’t be able to help himself but want to commit to you.
2. Always Be Yourself
The number one thing that will turn an Aries man off, is a phony. He can quickly pick up when someone just isn’t being themselves and is wearing a facade. This makes an Aries man totally uncomfortable.
He can never understand why anyone would pretend to be someone they are not. When an Aries man notices someone who is completely herself and makes no apologies for this, it really intrigues him and makes him want more.
An Aries man is always going to be attracted to a woman who doesn’t care what the world thinks of her. The more a woman can be herself, the more likely an Aries man is to want to be with her.
3. Be Fun
One of the most important things to remember about an Aries man is that he is extremely young at heart. This isn’t a man who is super serious all the time. In fact, he just wants to have fun and enjoy his life.
The last thing he wants is to be with someone who is negative and drags him down all of the time. He wants to be with a woman who can let down her hair and enjoy her life, hopefully with him by her side.
If you want to make an Aries man commit to you, then show him how playful and fun you can be. The positivity will make an Aries man excited and enthralled to be in your life.
4. Be Kind And Compassionate
If you’ve ever been around an Aries man you would know how friendly this guy is. He is a super positive person and tends to see the best in every situation and he wants the same quality in his partner.
This is a man who values kindness. He doesn’t want to be with a woman who is rude and unsympathetic. This is someone who would bring down the quality of his life and make him feel miserable.
He wants to be with a woman who is kind and compassionate. A woman who treats everyone with respect and integrity. These are very important values for the Aries man, and any woman who can show up like this is pretty special to him.
5 Reasons Why An Aries Man Stays Committed
Aries men seem to be one of the signs that find it easiest to lose focus when it comes to relationships. It is not that they are disinterested in their partner, they just sometimes get distracted by other things going on in their life.
If we look superficially – we’d even say that Aries men have the biggest fear of commitment out of all zodiac signs. But then, there are also Aries who seem to be the exception in the case. The ones who commit, and stay committed over time.
But what exactly makes an Aries man stay committed in a relationship? And is there a secret to keep an Aries man hooked? Keep reading to find out!
1. They’re Stimulated
Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac and they’re represented by the infancy stage of life. If you’ve ever spent time around a baby, then you know that they need near-constant entertainment.
Aries don’t need you to jingle keys in front of them to stick around, but they definitely need something new and exciting around every corner to stay engaged in a relationship.
He is easily bored, which is partly why they have a reputation for being a serial dater. When they’ve learned all of one woman’s tricks then they are off to see what else they can discover.
2. They’re Allowed To Express Passion
Aries is ruled by Mars, a hot and fiery planet. Just like the planet, Aries can find themselves turning red occasionally. They are passionate about what they believe in and they will stand up for it.
An Aries man might piss a lot of people off, but man, he will not hide his true opinion. He will stay committed to a partnership that allows him to go into full rant mode once in a while. Aries needs someone who will listen to their spicy takes without consequences.
If you can provide the Aries with a safe space to unleash his true inner fire, then you’ve got a much higher chance of keeping him around for the long run. Like they say, if you can’t stand the heat then get out of the kitchen!
3. You’re Not Easily Offended
One thing about Aries is that they are like toddlers in many ways. Curious, excitable, and unpredictable! They are also brutally honest. I think we’ve all facepalmed over a toddler or child’s incredibly blunt statements before.
Aries is also going to say it like it is. If they don’t like your idea then you will know. It’s not that they want to hurt your feelings, rather, they have a deep inclination to be honest.
If you can handle the truth then Aries might be your perfect match. They will feel totally relieved that they don’t have to wait for arrows to fly after they speak their mind. They will feel great for being able to share their real opinions with you, something they can’t come by everywhere else.
4. They Can Be Their Authentic Selves
Aries are so straightforward that they cannot be anyone but themselves. They don’t really understand the concept of toning themselves down for others. The way they see it, others should also be themselves. Aries can handle the less savory parts of others, so why can’t they handle him?
Aries wants to be able to be mad, sad, happy, and everything else without worrying about how their partner will perceive them. This is difficult to come by since many people take what Aries says and does personally.
Instead of letting your feathers be ruffled, consider thinking of them as a child. Would you tell a child to be anything but who they are? I hope not! Aries has a naïve side to them that hopes that they’ll receive that level of understanding. If you can offer that to them then you might have the Aries for life. Someone so understanding is hard to come by.
5. The Relationship Is Just Challenging Enough
Aries do like things to be quick, but they also enjoy a challenge. They really appreciate winning and coming out on top… there is no greater thrill to them! No one will give it their all to win as an Aries will.
If you want to keep an Aries man engaged, then you have to make them feel like they haven’t “won” yet. The Aries who feel like they’ve conquered the challenge of your relationship will simply move on and look for someone new.
Instead, it helps to create relationship goalposts to work toward together. Then create another once you finish one. This will give the Aries the feeling that they aren’t actually finished with the relationship yet. They will feel the need to keep fighting until they have nothing left to fight for.

Does Your Aries Man Become Distant After Intimacy?
Does your Aries man pull away or get quiet when you’ve just had a deep emotional connection? Does he seem to disappear just when you thought he was getting closer? Have you felt confused by his hot and cold behavior?
If so, then he might have an avoidant attachment style.
He could be Dismissive Avoidant and completely terrified of commitment… Or he could be Fearful Avoidant and REALLY want commitment…
If he has either one of these attachment styles, you’re going to end up feeling extremely confused at times. And both are caused by childhood trauma.
When you can see the scared little boy inside him that had to shut down his feelings if he’s dismissive avoidant…
Or have a parent not provide his needs consistently if he’s fearful avoidant…
It can make it easier to have empathy and compassion for his confusing and frustrating behavior.
But that won’t fix it.
And while advice on attachment styles can be helpful… What you really need to stop this frustrating hot and cold cycle is to understand him better.
Thankfully, there is a simple system to TRULY understand how an Aries man ticks based on his astrology <<
It will stop him from pulling back when you begin feeling closer. And it will accomplish this in only 30 days.
