"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 met this woman off pof.. been seeing her for around 4 months now..

I am 39 years old, and she is 45 years old.. we are spending quite a bit of time together.. doing boyfriend and girlfriend stuff.. like in a relationship.

But.. she keeps pointing out, that she is older than me, and she is ok with me meeting a younger woman for a relationship..

She has mentioned a few times that she might go abroad to live.. and i don't think she is expecting us to be together long term!!

My gut feeling is she is passing time with me, but when it comes to a proper relationship, she has got cold feet..

She is expecting to go on holiday with me, in two weeks time abroad..

I am thinking about cancelling the holiday.. going on holiday together is more of a girlfriend and boyfriend things.. this woman does not seem to want to commit to a relationship, so i could be leading myself on here..

I have feelings for her.. should i carry on seeing her?

Or pull back and stop all talk about relationships?

Do i carry on doing the relationship stuff with her, even tho i don't think we are in a relationship?

She keeps making an issue out of age, when its not a problem for me
 

"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.

Why are you the one doing relationship things? That's her job to do that...

She is telling you she wants to be FWB and you want a relationship?? Have your cake and eat it too brother...

Pull back emotionally. Don't invest in her. From what you described she is just having a good time. That isn't a bad thing. You can have a good time too. Just divest emotionally and let her lead the relationship details if there is to be one. If you can't get rid of your emotion you might try seeing less of her to ween yourself or just dump her. This might save you some pain.

I don't understand it.. she keeps stating the she will be ok if i meet a younger girl.. and she is happy to see me if and till that happens.

I don't think she wants us to be labled as bieng in a relationship.. yet we are doing everything that people in relationships do?

Holding hands, days out, nights in, holiday? Wtf

I,m thinking about emotionally pulling back, never push her for a relationship again.. cut out some of the lovey dovey stuff?

Also do i cancel this holiday?

Should I tell her straight what my expectations are? I.e i am looking for a long term relationship?

Or not say anything and just see how things go

What don't you get?

What is the problem?

SHE DOESN'T WANT TO MARRY YOU.

She just wants to have fun and have sex, and maybe experience a little lovey dovey cuddling in-between. But she(at least) isn't dull headed enough to realize that you two aren't going to spend the rest of your lives together.

Have fun with her, but don't get attached. She doesn't want you to get attached - and she's all but spelling this out to you. If you can't handle a plate (she is the definition of one) then move on before she breaks your poor little heart. Otherwise, ravage, have fun, have her treat you like a king, then move on.

****, man. Get it together.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Yes brah, i need to get my shiit together.. why the fuk should i push to have a relationship with a woman, who will never give me what i expect and deserve from a girlfriend..

Mix signals.. plus she goes out drinking quite alot, and i don't think that goes down with me well in the long run!

I need to step back.. absolutely no suggestions of a relationship with her..

She is a plate.. also the holiday will need to be cancelled..

Do i also need to cut down how much i see her, and tone down the lovey dovey bullshiit?

I would tone down the signs of affection. As far as seeing her it would depend on your emotions. Will you become more attached if you don't see her less?

I don't understand it either. Why on earth would you want to be in a long-term relationship with a 45 year old chick, considering you are 39??? WTF

This woman is straight up telling you that it's a causal fling. The holding hands stuff is just an intimacy thing. Just because it's not a long-term relationship doesn't mean that your d!ck and her vag are the only body parts that are allowed to come into physical contact..
