committed
Pledged to something
Committed describes dedication or obligation.
Someone committed to a cause devotes themselves to it fully: a committed environmentalist.
In relationships, committed means pledged to exclusivity: They've been in a committed relationship for years.
The word also describes being bound by decision or circumstance: Once you sign, you're committed.
A committed person may be one confined to an institution: He was committed after the breakdown.
