**Devil's advocate warning!** The dude is clearly suffering from an irrational trauma from their childhood, its not an issue you can just solve by "man the fuck up", the guy doesn't need lecturing, he needs a therapist. That being said, it does seem like the author intends for that to be the case, its going to be one long string of people calling him an idiot until he just magically gets past it. Chapter after chapter of making him look like an indecisive schmuck while only vaguely hinting at the reason he looks like he's about to have a nervous breakdown every time their relationship comes up.
