"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I was thinking of sending her a message that says, "I'm too busy for a relationship," but only closer look, she might stick around because I've implied that later when I'm not busy, she still has a chance.

I want to be final, but polite. Any help?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Simple answer: You don't.

Longer answer: No matter how you play this, she will get hurt. She is in love with you(or loves you), and being told that someone you have those feelings for doesn't want to be with you hurts like hell.

However, the way in which you break up does help a little. If you want to stomp her heart to pieces, you rub in all her bad habits and how you hate them. If you want to break her heart gentle, you put the blame with yourself. How you twist it, doesn't really matter, as long as you make it sound like that you are not good for her. (Notice how I left out "good enough", because that would pedestalize her)

I dumped a plate who was madly in love with me by telling her how dominant I am and that I would crush her and push her into a corner. That she needed someone more gentle than me. Still hurt her feelings, but at least she didn't have to hear how clingy/needy and submissive(in a bad way) she was.

Do it in person, and tell her the truth so she doesnt make the same mistake again.
