grammaticality - "Feel committed to [gerund/infinitive]"



Does "feel committed to" require an infinitive or gerund complement?



For example, which of the following is grammatical?





  • I feel committed to following up on that.

  • I feel committed to follow up on that.




Answer



"I feel committed to following up on that." Or likewise "I am committed to following up on that", etc.



But as a verb, rather than an adjective:



"I have committed to follow up on that." or "I committed to follow up on that", etc.
