"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 recently met a chick that has just got out of a long-term relationship. I also believe (not certain) she is currently having a fling with a married man from work.

Anyway, I went on 2 dates with her that went really well but she made it clear that she wasn't interested in something serious at the moment. I ditcher her after that.

Then around 1 month later she called up and I went on another date and she essentially told me 'I like you but give me more more time.' I originally interpreted both instances as outright rejections. However, i actually believe she likes me but is not at a stage where she wants a boyfriend.

Question is now; do I ditch her and hope that she calls me out of the blue in a month or so? Or do I email her from time to time and stay in touch with her occassionally? Do I take her out in a casual way for daytime action date? I am of course conscious of not falling into the 'friend' trap.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I had a similar situation to this.
If you like her just go along with it for now if you have no other options, and if things don't look promising after a few weeks, bail!

Mine didn't work out, we are still friends though. She still calls me once in a blue moon.
Girls want some time after a LTR, she is probably seeing if you are the right guy for her next relationship.
Just keep it casual for now, if she wants to get serious I'm sure she'll let you know.

This girl has you on reserves - you may be the next pimp in line - do not initiate contact, it would only weaken your position!!!
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
