"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.

Red flags aren't everything you need to look for

Nowadays it would be impossible to find a person without red flags. With this I would like to get to the point that it is good to see whether or not a woman, or a man you want to befriend, or a relative or family member has red flags, personality disorders, etc, but the fact is that you will not find people exempt from this.



Of course, you don't want to be around those who do drugs, drink, or do illicit things.
But at the same time, people who respect you, and who "work" every day like you to improve themselves, can have dark and difficult moments that bring out the monster within them. Just like it happened to you.
This is why I believe that filtering people for red flags is right, but at the end of the day, they will argue and disrespect, from time to time, even if they respect you.


Just curious to hear more about your take, after your many life experiences.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Hey, that’s the theory that no one’s perfect and we all have issues we need to work on from time to time. What your responsibility as a Man in this modern age, is yes, strive for self improvement, work on your issues and inner game yet don’t strive for perfection, work on your empathy skills too so you can have a good foundation for connecting and relating to others. One book I recommend is Emotional Intelligence, it brings a good topic on this issue.
