How do I assess his intentions without bringing up the word "commitment"?

Question - (29 October 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 30 October 2011)
A age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I met this chap and he likes me and I'm beginning to lower my guard and like him back. At first, I wasn't too keen only because of the fact that he's almost 7 years my junior. After we spoken and got to know each other I'm considering giving him a chance. I'm 32 so obviously I'm looking for something more long term than I did in my 20's and would be interested in having children with the right man at a near point in the future, the problem is how to assess his interest and intentions without bringing up the commitment word. And do age difference relations work? I don't look my age nor feel my age at the same time he's really mature and wants to commit once he finds the right woman. I just don't feel like scaring him off too soon as we've only been dating for 3 months now. Any ideas or pieces of advice would be really appreciated. Thanks folks.

Give it more time, if he is making you happy and he seems to be happy then just continue getting to know him

He may bring up the long term issue himself eventually. Bit too soon yet though.
