It's been 2 year bt I'm still struggling to commit to him like being sure that it's him I wanna marry, I don't have any complaints about him, but I don't know why I'm scared to commit, i don't have any past trauma too, he is a nice guy and we spend good time together, it just that I feel like I don't know what to look for in a person that's going to be your partner for a lifetime . Suggestions please.

I do not think anyone can explain to someone else of how they know it may be different for people. People since time began have tried in poems / songs/ stories.   that special it feeling when we know is not something we can really explain. 

Committing to someone is more than they are nice, we get along, or the person meets some sort of checklist of qualities.          Marriage is long term and you both will change over time... what you see right now might not be same as what you see in 10 or 20 years.   For me I felt calm not stressed about what if and when I looked at my partner, I felt secure.    If I had any doubts, I would not have married them.

TOO many IMO try to make something work even if in their inside they feel blank about it.  I feel people treat it like a job interview ........ they meet criteria on paper but after they get hired, we find the resume is not the whole picture and they are lousy at the actual role.
