Met this woman on dating app earlier this year. We both have younger kids, work long hours, and are around the same age. She had taken close to a year by herself after her marriage had ended, I was the first guy she dated and slept with since then. Certainly one of the hottest women I've been with, and a really nice and submissive girl. No apparent red flags. She came over on the second date and kept exclaiming how big my member was during sex. Due to our hectic schedules and having our kids opposite weekends, we didn't have much time to spend together. We only ever went on two actual dates--the rest of the times I fvcked the hell out of her in her basement while her kids were asleep upstairs. The rest of the time, one of us was either working or with our kids when the other was available. I knew this wouldn't continue forever...in my mind she'd either push for a relationship or I'd get dropped for someone else.
If anything, I played our time together probably a little too cold and aloof. I certainly wasn't needy or pushing her towards a relationship. I only discovered the red pill less than two years ago, and have been trying to calibrate since then, determined not to make the same mistakes I made back in my AFC days. I probably have gone TOO far in the other direction in some ways. Anyway, I simply enjoyed the great sex while it lasted.
Fast forward 4-5 months...I go to her place and she says she needs to talk. Says she's been dating other guys the time we've been together, and so far I was her best option in not so many words. To me it was a good thing that after a marriage breakup, she was getting out and discovering her options. BUT there's a guy from her work she claimed to have more of a connection with, and she was at the point where she wanted more than just wild sex. She wanted us to still be friends, but didn't want to be fvcking us both at the same time. I said yeah, whatever that's cool. I was a bit sad because I could see a future with this girl but am experienced enough to know that she's never yours, its just your turn, and what will be will be.
Since September, we've texted a few times, although I was the one to reach out (I know, I know). Once on her birthday. I'm doing renovations at home and she's storing my new kitchen in her garage. So a couple times updating her about when I can move it. Tonight we get chatting for the third time since September...I sent her a voice note and she says it's good to hear my voice. Every time we chat she's super interested in everything going on with me.
I'm getting close to ready for my kitchen, so she offered to help me move it to my place. I joked that she'll now have room in her garage for that new car her guy's going to buy her for Christmas. She laughed and said yeah right. So its unclear whether she's with him still or not. But obviously there's something fishy if she's still being so warm towards me.
So my advice to myself: Spin more plates, which I'm working on. Pay attention to her actions and watch for signals. Some will say that you only get one chance per woman per lifetime, so I should just forget about her. Thoughts?
