"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.

what is the best response when you are out with a girl and someone asks, "Is this your girlfriend?"

additional facts:
-assume that you have not clarified with the girl whether you are GF/BF.

-assume that you have been on 3, maybe four or five dates but you just arent at that steady stage where you can use the label "girlfriend"

-assume that the person asking is just curious, they are not trying to hit on her.



should i go with something CF, such as "she's competing for the spot..."

or shoudl i be frank and say "well maybe eventually, but weve only been on X dates..."
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"Her? She's my babysitter. Now stop asking so many questions...I'm trying to convince her it's time to take me home and give me a bath."

or

"Oh, she's my grandmother. Does this place have a seniors discount?"

This is an awkward one I get a lot and I have used various replies in the past, such as:

"She might be if she plays her cards right"

"She wishes!" or "In her dreams!"

"No, but I'm working on it"

"Not yet. I'm still testing her out"

"I have no idea who she is. She just keeps following me around"

"No, she's just my bit of rough"

"She's my personal bodyguard"

"Why do you ask? Has she got competition?"



Depends on the girl. I prefer to avoid giving serious responses as it creates a feeling of awkwardness which neither of you would want.
 

"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.

"she's my sister, dont you see how childish she is?"

last time i was at a pool hall, the cashier guy i knew he was asking me who she is. I replied , "she's my sister cant you see the resemblance?" that just made her want me more. Of course he had a boggled look on his face, haha

Before it was official when my softball team asked in front of my gf i said "she's my cousin" then i kissed her.

The rest of the season they referred to her as my cousin. "how's your cousin" and "did you lay pipe to your cousin yet" to me and "what's up cuz" when she came around.

Not the best response, but amusing and goes with my personality.

I would have said something like 'she wishes' or 'in her dreams' but I think Wyldfire's first response is far better. :crackup: Good work.
