Non-Committer

Noun. An individual who possesses a cavalier attitude about most things in his/her life; particularly while dating. Furthermore, this person thrives in ambiguity and is extremely unwilling to give time or energy towards another. They usually are skilled at saying the right things but doesn't necessarily do them; fails to materialize and commit. In other words , he/she "talks the talk" about co-habitating, but it never goes further. At the end of the day, people like this are a menace to society and are a huge waste of time! Set their asses free and move on to someone who has their shit together! They need to grow the hell up!!!

"When I asked if he was talking to anyone else on a dating app , I received a half-ass response that involved him not wanting to commit to anybody". Ugghh, just go on Tinder then! Why is your ass even on a dating app? What a tool"!
" We've been together for 2 years, kinda wondering what the next step is? We've talked about moving in, but when? Wtf! I think I' getting played" Tired of this non-committer!!!!!!!

Non-Committal Grunt

A short, indifferent-sounding grunt whose meaning far exceeds the audible expression.

The non-committal grunt is neither a refusal nor agreement; rather, it prompts continuation of the conversation without exposing your position. It can also be used in lieu of the Yup, especially those cases where you want to avoid inadvertent agreement.

Can be employed as a more politically correct version of whatever or pfft.

When deploying the non-committal grunt, one must understand that they are stating the following:
“I hear you and acknowledge that you have stated your position and are expecting a reply before continuing; however, at this juncture I am not committing to subscribing to your point of view.”

“Lol, the chick was going on & on so I tuned her out, and after a while I realized that she was looking for some type of response so I just gave her a non-committal grunt & she kept yapping - that worked just fine”
“You are the man!”
