Yes, if it restricts you!
No, if it pushes you to reach the peak of your capabilities and success through the discipline.

If that is how you take it.
It can also be a glorious cocoon from which you grow together as one, if you want it to be.
Free speech does not mean you you speak without consequences. It just means you speak without limits.
Commitment works the same way. It allows you to connect but it allows you to hurt one another too.
Would you rather a person just stood there and let you walk all over them or would you rather they told you how they felt?
That is commitment, accepting the bitter with the sweet and learning to appreciate both.
The restriction is of your own choosing.
"Can God create a boulder he can not lift?"
Sure, if He chooses to do so.
How can there be free will in a world of chaos?
Because it allows it.
There is nothing glamorous to this. It is a change. Accept it or don't.
As Rawles put it when piercing the veil of ignorance you find that the only distinction that matters is equality and deference.
In other words, make a choice, recognize the commitment exists, or ignore it, think your actions have no consequences, and consider this as just more of the same. You have to accept the deference to accept the change.
And some people like to be shackled. It makes them feel larger than they are to have someone connected to them in this fashion.

No, commitment is giving oneself to another without fear of losing yourself. Commitment is a promise to understand that another, just like you, is human and capable of making mistakes. Commitment is love. We all have commitments in our lives. It begins with our parents, or parent or legal guardian. They commit to help us to grow and learn and to fed us and to love us. We become adults and then we commit to friends, to be there for them, to care for them, to understand them when others don't. And then finally we have the commitment to one significant other in which we promise to be a safehaven, a life partner, a love that endures all. In the end we have a commitment to live as well as we can for we all must die. Even dieing is a commitment and ironically it is the only one you can not break.

No. Commitment is based on free will with your agreement to honor your declared vows of fidelity.
